ONE STITCH AT A TIME - #240 - ANYTHING GOES WITH RED, WHITE AND BLUE

THEME:  Red, White and Blue ( I am from Canada so forgive me for not going Patriotic )

DIGI:  Ornaments

ARTIST:  Crafty Girl Creations

Challenging!  Two colors (white being the absence of color) but yet I am one known for leaving no white space so double challenging for me!

I had these lovely word art pieces from Brave Girls, left over from a workshop, and they seemed perfect for this piece.

 It felt like a piece about staying strong, meeting the struggles of life, not giving up, keeping it simple.

Yet acknowledging how dimensional life can be, can get, can seem - even when we do our best to keep it simple.

We pray, we meditate, we breathe...but sometimes it all just seems out of our hands.

However, when we least expect it, something happens.  An "aha" moment, the moment of "rapture", the solution we have been seeking or just quite simply that sunny day we have been praying for.

And before we know it...we are right back in balance, ready to meet a new challenge...but happy, strong, resiliant - and moreso than before the last problem or challenge started!

Now your turn.  Head on over to ONE STITCH AT A TIME - let's see what you can do with Red, White and Blue.  Surprise us!  Let us see real creativity.  I for one can't wait.

And you know you will receive Stitchy Bear's Digital Outlet Price Pack of June's 5 Image Pack!
And that is nothing to sneeze at.  So see you there. Can't wait - especially on this one!!!!  :)

HAPPY SUNDAY
