It was a great way to start the week and share some of the ideas that are coming out of my art journal lately.  Remember to join the Facebook Group HERE and share your MMM inspired projects!   I love to see MMM-inspired ART! See you next Monday, April 21st!  April CALENDAR is already half over!  My birthday month is RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER!!

Appreciate life even when it’s not ideal.  Happiness is not the fulfillment of what we wish for, but an appreciation for what we have.  When life gives you every reason to be negative, think of one good reason to be positive.  There’s always something to be grateful for. “
