Life has many moments we can be grateful for. I try to search for one everyday.I often write them down and add them to my blessing tree. Sometimes they are so special I like to add them to my art work. This week I watch a wonderful lesson thought in Life book 2013 classes. I was able to use some of those special moments in this project..

Here is a painting I recently painted. It is on depression. Depression is a serous disease that effects many. People often feel alone or unworthy to live. Depression comes with many faces. Some people smile and cover it up, Others cry and some even end there life. my heart goes out to all who are afflicted. I would do anything to take such a deep pain away. I relies I can do something. That thing is to paint and share that there is more than one with this disease. I want to let anyone know I am here to listen.. Sending Love out into the void and ask for peace to be brought to the affiliated..

I have been working on how to implement my mixed media passion into scrapbooking.

I have deep passion for both hobbies and often switch back and forth.

I decided to combine the both today and share a little tutorial that you can print up and save.

here is the finished page.

I hope you can create one your self and link the finish project to my blog.

1st photo is a journal page I recently created. I wanted to work out a hard day I was having. I demonstrated this technique in my recent Live show. You will find all the links on the left hand side of my blog. I hope it can help you with working out negative feelings.

Here are a few of the project I have been making this month. I have enjoyed every bit of it. Life has been good and I am so blessed to have an oppetunity to share my talent.

Some of my most favorite things to draw and paint are angel. Here are a few of my latest! Have a wonderful holiday and know you are all watched over ... Life is full of so many blessing and beautiful encounters. We have to look past the worldly things to find the special things. My wish for all of you is to seek for the little special things that happen everyday. Take some time to call a friend and tell someone you know is hurting that they are loved. We all have our challenges in life. It our solutions our daily actions that defines us and makes us the very person that people notice. You don't know what action can make a positive impact in others lives until it is done... Merry Christmas My dear friends... You are loved!

It is that time of year were people are searching for goodness. remembering the kindness they once felt. Hoping for miracles and looking for inner answers that can calm there very soul. As you search for your peace remember that you are not alone in your quest. There are many just like you doing the same thing. I just wanted to take a moment to share my love with anyone who may read this. let you know that life is truly impacted by how we choose to act and feel. Take a moment out of your busy holiday to call an old friend, Kiss a loved one or just smile to a stranger.

Merry Christmas
