<h3>There&#39;s no place like&#160;HOME</h3>

<p></p>

<div class="body">
	<p>Following the prompt, I got some inspiration from Eliza Badurina in creating my &#8220;house&#8221;.</p>

	<p>This is the week that God showed up for me.   The quote by St. Augustine just kept popping into my head when I thought of &#8220;Home&#8221; and &#8220;going Home&#8221;.   </p>

	<p>Augustine says, &#8220;You have made us for yourself, O Lord.  And our hearts are restless until they find their rest (home) in You.  </p>

	<p>Dorothy from Oz visited me too.  She says, &#8220;If I ever go looking for my heart&#8217;s desire again, I won&#8217;t look any further than my OWN BACKYARD.  Because if it isn&#8217;t there, I never really lost it to begin with.  </p>

	<p>The photo is me on my 50th birthday, almost two years ago now.  I have no techniques to share as I let PaperWerx papers do all the cool stuff for me.  Well, I did use my incredible black marker from American Crafts to &#8220;stain-glass&#8221; my page.  </p>

	<p>Thanks for looking, Jane Swanson</p>

	<p></p>
