Vision Card

In our Joy Diet journey, Jamie suggested we make a vision card each week as well as noticing what brings us joy each day. I had to clean off my art desk in order to do this project. It was the first time in months that I had attempted any type of art just for me.
First, I made myself a cup of Sugar Cookie tea, which I use sparingly because I have only a few bags left and it is a seasonal tea. I poured it into my favorite white china cup that I purchased from Heidi's Tea Shop before she closed.
Second, I gathered a few magazines. I placed a large yellow index card and glue before me on my desk.
Third the search for images and words that bring me joy. (Right in the middle of it I recieved a call from my friend who lives hundreds of miles away. Her calls always bring me joy.)
Here is the finished card.
Things that bring me joy represented here:
  • Space
  • Sitting by the ocean
  • Reading & Journaling
  • Color
  • Friends
  • Movies like mama mia
  • Project Runway and it's color,design and creatvity
  • Being outdoor ie. riding
  • Me time
