I really love surrounding myself with other Artists work. It gives me that inspiration needed sometimes. I was happy to find this sweet suitcase on Etsy. I purchased it with some Birthday money I got from My Mama Chiccki. Thank you Mama Chiccki !! Look what I got from Suit Yourself.

May Day.....

May_day_2

All hail gentle spring

With thy sunshine and showers,

And welcome the sweet buds that burst in the bowers;

Again we rejoice as thy light step and free

Brings leaves to the woodland and flowers to the bee,

Bounding, bounding, bounding, bounding, joyful and gay,

Light and airy, like a fairy,

Come away, come away.

Come see our new garland so green and so gay;

"Tis the first fruits of spring and the glory of May.

Here are the cowslips and daisies and hyacinths blue,

Here are the buttercups bright and anemone, too.

Flora Thompson 1878-1947

Project Star......

00lead_4

A  fellow Home School family,Blog Me Til Midnight ( Jillian ) is undertaking a huge project with her two son's as a Home School project in rememberance to the Holocaust and the 6 million lives lost during that time. My family is working on special stars to send them for their memorial. I finished mine up tonight. If you are interested in being a part of this too, please go to her blog site and leave her a comment. This is so awesome !!!!

This is my contribution to Project Star... I hope they will treasure this piece. My story during the Holocaust involves my Great Great Aunt who hid a Jewish family of three in Latvia.That family was saved from death and survived the Holocaust, thanks to God and my Aunt. Read the whole story about my Aunt here.

Remember way back when I joined Viv's Doll swap ? well, it took me this long to get her there. Through all the " Stuff " we have been through lately... it took a while to get back into creating. I feel now, I am up and running. Feeling lively and refreshed and ready for new things to happen around here. So enjoy the weekend dears... and maybe I will have something new to show soon !!!
