Yellow Bush of Happiness

I've had some very sad news today from back home in Canada. So I've been on the phone with several members of my family today. It's very hard to be so far away from them when I feel they need me the most. However it's nice to be able to stay in contact with them over the phone, with e-mail and even this blog! While I was talking with my Dad he asked me about his favourite bush outside our house. He really likes this yellow bush, as he can tell when he comes over which is our house but the bright yellow flowers in the front garden. So after talking with him I grabbed my camera and took a few photos of the bush for him. When he saw them on Flick it really made him cheer up, so I'm now calling the busy the "Yellow Bush of Happiness"! Now I am showing it all to you so you too can have a little bit of happiness today.

With all that is going on today I am reminded of a song we sing in church. Blessed Be Your Name by Matt Redman. It talks about Blessing God not just when we are in the good time and happy, but also when the darkness come and time of suffering. Blessed be your Glorious Name!

Think Monday - Spring Bloom

For this weeks Think Monday Think ATC challenge with the theme of "Spring". My first thought on the theme were all the blooms that are starting to show on the trees. The background was done by dry brushing Ranger Dabbers Cool Peri and Juniper Acrylic paints and then sprinkling UTEE on the edges and heating slightly to give texture. The printed image of a cherry blossom was texturized in Adobe Photoshop before being printed out and attached with Gel Medium. Words were stamped with ProvoCraft Swell.
