First of May

hello everyone,

Hope you have a nice and sunny first of May!!
I enjoy having a weekend free..
Took a walk this morning, and saw that the lilacs are in full bloom.
i am so addictef to that smell.
love when the wind comes in the right direction and brings it through my window.
That is such a fantastc time in the year.

But i really realize that every season has it´s Beauty.
It´s the same with the different ages of people.
You can discover so many beautiful things in every age.
I still do my meditation and Mindfulness based stress reduction, which is so helpful.
Here is an interview with Jon Kabat-zinn:

This week i have to teach and sing performances, so i will be away for a while.
Share with you some inspiration and cards from these days:



 Look at that little family, the babies are so sweet....
 made a ring of a cherry flower...
 those turtles are in the parc..there are so many.when the sun shines they have their place on this tree..
 look at those birdies..love them so much..


 i wish i could post the smell of lilac, it is so intensive...it makes you dream away..




 this weekend my mom showed me how to make rhubarb juice, love that so much

And now the cards:

  1. it was so lovely to read your blog today - beautiful photographs - we had such an early spring here that my lilacs have already bloomed and gone. watched the jon kabat video - i have his book, "wherever you go, there you are". as always your cards are so gorgeous - yours and jacqueline's are some of my favorites because you do the grid cards so well and use my favorite colors.

  4. I always see your artistic cards in the Hero Arts Flickr group, but today I discovered your blog. Loved reading this post, the pictures are really amazing, and so are the cards :) You are a true stamper! By the way, those pictures of ladies...are they stamps too? they look very realistic.
