HAPPY:

This week’s word is LOVE in honour of Mother’s Day this past weekend:

Basically “LOVE” is a unique feeling that can’t be defined if we really live it. On the contrary it can be defined with all its technicalities for all other purposes. To be very straight and simple, “Love” can be defined as the behavioral approach between two persons that involves affection, emotion and sentiments.

Here is a page using the word “love” that I created using the May kit from Sweet Pea Scraps.

This week’s word is:

Carefree

1: free from care

2:  having no worries or troubles

With the carefree, lazy days of summer upon us I thought it would be great to use the word carefree in a layout. I did the following layout for The Sisterhood of Scrap blog mystery envelope challenge. It is of Emmy and DD and how carefree thier summer days were. This photo was taken while at the school carnival. I love how cute they look. How innocent. How carefree.

Instead of highlighting a specific word this week, I wanted to share some wonderful Spring related quotes with you! So if you’d like to enter a page for this week using one of the quotes below, we’d be delighted to share it on the blog!

————————————————————————–

Spring is nature’s way of saying, “Let’s party!”
- Robin Williams

Spring makes its own statement, so loud and clear that the gardener seems to be only one of the instruments, not the composer.
- Geoffrey B. Charlesworth

It was one of those March days when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold: when it is summer in the light, and winter in the shade.
- Charles Dickins

Springtime is the land awakening. The March winds are the morning yawn. ~Quoted by Lewis Grizzard in Kathy Sue Loudermilk, I Love You

No matter how long the winter, spring is sure to follow.
- proverb

Awake, thou wintry earth -
Fling off thy sadness!
Fair vernal flowers, laugh forth
Your ancient gladness!
~Thomas Blackburn, “An Easter Hymn”

I love spring anywhere, but if I could choose I would always greet it in a garden. ~Ruth Stout

No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn. ~Hal Borland
