A Beautiful Life

Psalm 98:4-5--"Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth, burst into jubilant song with music; make music to the Lord with the harp, with the harp and the sound of singing."

Have you ever been awakened to the sound of the birds singing or the wind whistling? What's your favorite kind of music? If you listen, you can hear the earth singing. We are mandated to shout for joy along with singing. If you can't sing, then shout. Those of you who play instruments, play them for the Lord. Music is just one of the things that offers me a beautiful life.
(And, no, it's not a harp in the picture; it's a lute, but it has strings!)

This little "room" is part of a larger design created as a collaboration from the design team of Shabby Cottage Studios. The moderator of the team allowed us to blog our creations and the total design will be submitted to be judged. If found worthy, it will be part of a published work. It was fun creating with paper from Shabby Cottage Studio, bits of floral stems, paper roses and leaves, real dried pussy willow, a feather, fun yarn, tulle and pearls from an old costume jewelry necklace, old music, scrapbook paper and lace. It measures 3 7/8"h x 3 1/2"w x 1 1/2"deep.
