The Happiest Moment of My Life

Yesterday,  I would  say was one of  the happiest moments of my life  With the tag below, I won a wonderful prize over at Bella Creations, a lovely art group I belong to. Come join us and share in the fun, they make everyone feel special. The fabulous prize package is from Scrap of Darkness, and I can't wait to get my inky hands on it.
The woman on the moon swing  image was the starting point for the challenge called April "Bella Muse". I decided to make a tag and got out my watercolor paints to paint a moody night sky complete with purple and white glittery faraway stars. Added  blue and yellow crystal stars too, for dimension. After cutting out the the image, I added Ranger Stickles and black outlining. For the rope on her sweet swing, I used white sequin trim that is about 20 years. LOL. The final touch was adding the sentence "The Happiest Moment of My Life". Who would have guessed this sentiment was a vision of my future for this piece!
Hope you capture a happy moment this week,
Always, gerri
