Smile

A smile is cheer from you to me,
the cost is nothing its given for free.
They console the weary and gladden the sad.
And can make someone happy when they are mad.
Unlike blessings in which we pray
its the only thing you keep when you give it away.

This week we bring to you another gorgeous layout created by Barbara. The photo is of her adorable grand daughter. Just look at those curls! A modern day Shirley Temple.Not to long ago, HSN had shown a new product by Martha Stewart. It is a circle punch. And it is WONDERFUL!!! The larger blue circle in the back and the smaller decorative circles were both punched with the machine. You just change the punches. Until it hits the general public, they are exclusive to HSN. But this isn't about the punch, this is about the beautiful layout Barbara created using her amazing talent. The color contrast of the blue, black and hints of yellow is striking. The flower clusters are just gorgeous and love that little birdies tucked into the clusters. The whole design is just divine. But that smile just lights up the whole layout. Great job Barbara, we totally adore this one!!
