SHARING A LITTLE ART

What a beautiful day here in the Ohio, the crispness of fall is in the air. Orange peels, cinnamon and cloves, in a low simmer, to give the house just a "hint" more, to the fall chill.

Just wanted to share a little art, from my art journal that I started while recovering from surgery.

Hope you enjoy, have a blessed day!

FAR TOO LONG

Time can truly get the best of us. Stepped away for what was only to be a brief period of time, to "regroup" not only my crafty process, but my emotional and more importantly, get back in in tune spiritually. Sadly, it all took more time than expected.

Faced a serious surgery to remove a 5lb tumor from my lower neck and upper shoulders, FIVE POUNDS!  My previous treating physician, blew it off for years as being a "fatty deposit, probably from the high levels of artificial insulin I had been on for years".
WRONGO! It was actually a (thank the Lord) noncancerous Lipoma. Recovery was not without complication. I developed an infection. Took the earlier part of the summer to recover, but all is just perfectly healed now.

ANYHOW......I had been ding a bit of crafting on and off, and have discovered the love of  ARTIST TRADING BLOCKS.






My very first ATB. I am thrilled with the results! In the process of creativity, I have really got the hang of my Silhouette Cameo and LOVING it!

Just finished the following lovely today!





 
 
Hope y'all enjoy looking! Thanks for stopping by, and come visit again soon!

Today's spiritual inspiration: In Genesis 1:1 we read that "In the beginning, God created the heavens and earth". Wow, that means that our God is a BIG GOD, so is there really anything to big in our lives, that is bigger than God? Just a thought.

Be Blessed In Your Everyday Life!
