WASSIMA Art Journal Prompt {Week 33}


Today is WEEK 33 of our little deck of cards journal....
The prompt is "COMFORT" - this word has been in my mind for a few weeks now for a several reasons:
  • all the cold weather lately has had us staying in on the weekends, which has allowed us time to bake cookies, make pots of chili and last weekend we even made a roaster full of stuffed cabbages (oh the house smelled like GRAM's!) Yum. COMFORT food.

  • looking over my inspiration book for pages/ideas I want to 'scraplift' - one of my favorites for quite a while remains an Elsie Flannigan layout from her first book. The title was "Soothing," and the journaling read "the most soothing person I know" (about her friend Rachel)....love that...and lately I am especially grateful for my true "soft landing" peeps : )

  • and of course, creating ART in every form remains a big comfort to me....journals, scrapbooking, sewing, feathering the nest....all brings much peace to balance the "OVERWHELM bits" that crowd my mind, my time and my weeks!

So what equals "COMFORT" for you?

P.S. NOT a sports fan. But the Pittsburgh Girl in me is of course rooting for the Steelers. ["Go Stillers!"] But seriously, pre-game since 1 pm? Seriously?
