Balance

Such a tame word that means so much.

Balance - staying on one's feet, working things

in your life where you can have it all.

Balance just doesn't apply to adults - children also

need balance, like routine it can be comforting.

So raise your hand if you sometimes have trouble coming

up with a blog title. 

Not only a blog title but a page title - however,

this one seemed to be a natural.

Fyi.....

That orange blob next to the clock is an 8 - turned sideways

and now it looks like a heart - love that - stash used.

 You may notice this b&w paper from here.

It started out as a regular page that turned into a disaster

and then got gessoed and whacked to 6x12 to save it

because I really liked it. This one had an added bonus

where I punched a heart out right at the bottom.

So I decided to emphasize it and backed it with a heart

stamped heart from this weeks DIY "tags".

And then I found I bigger heart punched out on paper

that totally went with the papers and tossed that it to emphasize

the boo-boo even more. And turned a pumpkin upside down.

And why not....

 I didn't realize how dark that photo was until now

it looks good IRL. So this is Miss Amelia

using a curb like a balance beam.
