In The Shadows

Sometimes we just get lucky! :) 

I bought these boxes from a different plan. I have been trying to figure out how to get my display to look better and I thought these could be just what I needed and once I had all 10 of them I realized it was just not going to work. So I tossed them aside and just let them be for about 6 months.

One day not knowing what to do with the skull I set it aside and put it in the box so it would not chip. An hour later I walk in to my work area and saw all the possibilities. Here are just a few. 

Valentine Day Give Away

Hello all, hope you had a great week and I hope that tomorrow will be a day filled of LOVE, Happiness and Joy. But if you do not have someone to share this day with don't lose hope in LOVE. Love will always find us but we can't close our hearts we will not be able to see it right in front of us. So on this day that has meant so much to me. A day that I used for a special person to let him know how much I LOVE him I am going to give away a heart plaque but you have to do some work. On Friday I will announce who won.

This is what you have to do post your love story on the comments and
the person with the best love story wins and I will be posting a picture if the plaque later tonight!
LOVE, PEACE and HOPE  <3 <3
