Bee Thankful

I am so totally in love with this Bee Happy Collection from Stampendous. I don't know how you can look at them and not smile. I colored the bees with Copic Markers. They're so different from watercoloring with the aquapainter and I really need to play and experiment with them more to get the right touch. I do love how vibrant they are though and they don't streak which is a huge plus. Cosmo Cricket really outdid themselves with the Dutch Girl collection. So, so cute and fun to use.

As I decided on the title for the blog today it made me pause to think about just what I am thankful for. The list is endless because I feel so blessed to be living this life. I have a great job, healthy parents who are in their 70's, wonderful children who have been one of my greatest gifts, my first grandson, and last but not least a phenomenal husband who loves me, through thick and thin and not only supports my addiction to this awesome hobby but is actually an enabler. He points out things at the craft stores that I have overlooked. He even follows me around at stamp shows and lets me select the stamps, hand them to him to purchase and sends me off to the next booth to choose more. Can't get any luckier than that!

TGIF!
