Five Wishes an Aceo and Cat Stevens


Wish I may, wish I might
Get the wish I wish tonight...

This week's theme at Inspiration Avenue is, you guessed it, "Wishes."

I previously made an aceo with dandelions and wishes, so I've got my wishes all aligned.  Each dandelion represents a family member.
It's a mixed media aceo with braided thread, a scrapbook embellishment and painted in acrylics and watercolors.

At the bottom of the post, there's a video of Cat Stevens, with a song about something vital to getting your wish, if you counted on a dandelion, that is.

Do you remember Cat Stevens?  I used to have his songs memorized and as soon as I played this video, well the words came back to me.

What's your wish?

Thanks Lucy; Thanks Stacy; Thanks Jenn!

You don't have to tell your wish Stacy, yes Cat transformed, but he was popular a few decades ago.

This was one of the briefest songs, Lucy it seemed to suit the theme.

Thanks for the theme, Jenn.

really love your wishes.
And I think it's so cute that Stacy, the darling didn't know who Cat Stevens is....well she is just a sprout herself afterall. Adored the music. Welcome to Celebrate OZ. Oma Linda

Beautiful! I love how the dandelions represent each person in your family. My wish is that I find where I was meant to end up in life ~ don't think I'm quite there yet, although I should be. One day ...
