PINK 5 PETAL FLOWER AND AN AWARD


Okay - perhaps I am a bit obsessed with pink...I just cannot help myself.
I saw a photo of this flower and could not get it painted fast enough...took about 4 or so hours..but I absolutely LOVE the results....what a great pink...what a simple flower that just
makes me feel good and smile...I really am quite happy with it!!! (can you tell?)
I know this may sound wishy washy - but I truly believe that nature is truly God showing us miracles everyday...such beauty - such simplicity - and the fragrances are outstanding..
to me that all means a miracle..something to remind us - that beauty is everywhere and can be seen in everything!!!
This is my entry today for CED - YAYAYAY!!!

Now for the real HAPPY HAPPY NEWS...Leah from Creative Every Day has bestowed this
beautiful little award

because I make her smile/make her day - What an awesome compliment...and truly an award that I will always treasure!!!
I owe Leah so much - because of her GREAT idea of Being Creative Everyday Projects - it has allowed me to come out of my shell more and meet some new people and display my art and given me motivation to move forward instead of finding excuses not to pursue what makes me happy!!! Her art is AMAZING....( I just look and drool)...she has a very inspiring and heartfelt blog...and is just one of the nicest people I have met in my new journey!!
So THANK YOU Leah for being you and for the GREAT award...

The description of this award follows:
Give the award to up to 10 people whose blogs bring you happiness and inspiration and make you feel so happy about blogland! Let them know by posting a comment on their blog so that they can pass it on. Beware! You may get the award several times!
