Friendship is in the giving of yourself and your appreciation for one another. Take nothing for granted and always show your love to your dear friends...even in the small ways.... simple acts of kindness goes along way. Do something for the people in your life, you may be helping them through a difficult time that day and not even know it!!

Cherish each other!

    That is certainly a lovely token of your friendship with that gal. Very nice and thoughtful of her. I must tell you how much enjoyment I am getting from the beads you sent me. I have already used quite a few in the project I am just putting the finishing touches on and your beads are the perfect thing. I will show you later on my blog. Thanks again, Susan.

Since I wanted to make something to herald in springtime...I decided to use some vintage ephemera that I have collected over the years. I used a vintage book page from some nature pages my friend Tina had sent to me from Denmark. The feather I have the little girl holding is from a friend in British Columbia, from one of her birds, who donates his feathers!! LOL......I also used a wee little nest I was gifted in a swap a couple of years ago. The little metal hanger I though was a cute way to hang the collage...On the little label it says "Magical"! Springtime to me is a magical time of year, as nature once again brings forth beautiful flowers, and lush landscapes so pleasing to our soul. A
