March Sunshine

Sunshine warms my heart
the cockles flutter gently
TAKE! a pocketful....

I was sitting in the backyard enjoying the warm of the sun, listening to the birds sing, the bees buzz and watched a butterfly waft near... so peaceful, so serene... it just made me feel good inside... why, I thought can't I just take some of this.. and save it...
I wrote the Haiku and gradually put the piece together in my Journal book...

I used yellow tissue paper and paint... fabric scraps, scrapbook 'pretties' and an organza pouch for the pocket....

I look forward to your comments....

The journaling aspect is really good for keeping everything together and so fun for us to be able to peek into:)
