this year i commit to celebrating more.
both everything and nothing at all.
i celebrate fridays with starbucks. :) ( a very deadly treat that kills our budget lol )
i celebrate fridays because it was the day of the week handsome and i got married.
we celebrate us.
we celebrate together.
i ramble while we watch tv together. i just say what i'm thinking. and when i'm quiet he knows something crazy will come out of my mouth. one such time i said... I want to celebrate seasons. not just summer, fall, winter, spring or holidays but our seasons. Our everyday. our life. i don't want to miss out celebrating. it's not just an excuse to not remember special days. ( i'm terrible at remembering every special anniversary in our relationship. ) I just think everyday can be a time to celebrate. break out the cupcakes, the pretty linens and plates... send someone something special. My last post somewhat explains my somber year last year and a need to change. This is a new year. This year i will sprinkle it with bits of celebrating.
To start off I made some shadow box art ( shadow box from IKEA ) using a new Pretty Paper Kit now in my ETSY shop
(The kits are very limited. Only 2 available)
and it includes everything you see pictured here:
and for some eye candy pleasure i made the following pages only using what's in the kit:
I always forget to take pictures of the packages i send out from my ETSY shop. this little package is on it's way to a new home... off to the post, and grocery shopping... and celebrating today painting my little studio and such.
and a special thanks to those lovelies who left a comment on my previous post... thank you for leaving beautiful and encouraging notes. I really needed that. I'm touched from your heartfelt response. xoxo
sending love,

Oh Debee! I am always so delighted to see your posts, your photos, your art. Today that's what I am celebrating :) You inspire me in many ways and I am so sorry that a comment from someone hurt you and made you question yourself. It's sounds like you are owning your truth and fighting back with joy and delight. Good for you. Fear is a terrible thing--it makes us make poor descisions and react in ways we wouldn't. Courage is fear that has said it's prayers!!
Happy Saturday-happy YOU.
Yay for celebrations! I'm celebrating today as the last Saturday that my hubby has to work for a LONG time. For as long as we've been married(almost 4 years), he's worked on Saturday, and now, no more! Here's to the good, everyday things!
Oh such sweetness!!! Simply beautiful! Celebrate beauty in the small things xo
This is great! I was just talking to my husband about this yesterday. I want to capture everyday, little moments and just appreciate how beautiful life is. Your pages are too cute!
