A Perfect Day

I had the most amazing day...  I took a vacation day with no plans in mind.  I just have to start using or loosing. I took Hubby (he's retired) to breakfast, did my grocery shopping and baked some brownies.  The smells of  the brownies baking and coffee brewing along with sun streaming into my craft room made me more relaxed than I've been in months.  It just couldn't have been sweeter. It's true, that the simplest things in life are to be cherished.  Today was all about me.  I could get used to this.  Hmm!


This is a digi from A Day For Daisies that I colored with Copics.  I cut it out and placed it on  layers of DP from K&Company.  If you know me, you know I've made a boo boo, by the embellishments.  My gorgeous cover-up-flowers are from Jolee's Boutique. "Smiles" is a favorite from Stampabilities. And of course I had to use a little Martha Stewart glitter on the leaf and the stem.

Love this one! Taking a day off really brought out the creative juices! I'm so jealous! I would LOVE a day off, but if I couldn't have it I'm glad you did!
