This was a fun and productive week. I will admit I'm ready for ds's baseball season to slow down so I have a few more hours a day not at the ball park. I love baseball, but he plays both JV and Varsity, which means a game almost every day.
I wrote 800 plus words for a marriage article. Very rough, but the words are on the hard drive.
I wrote a 'flash' fiction. Also very rough, but it was my first attempt at telling a story in such a short form.
Indulged in a bit of fun photography.
Then....
I participated in the 'Spring Training Swap' hosted by Paula at Coffee Time Quilt Studio. While I had a blast gathering things to send to my swap partner, it was such fun to receive a box from my buddy. Cloe had packaged each item in red, white, or blue tissue ~ Texas Ranger's colors. Then she labeled each one with the name of a Texas Ranger from the opening day starting line up. Fun!
But even more fun was opening the packages.....
Indulgent treats, new fabrics, and even a new quilt design to play with. Lots of fun!
In the spirit of that fun, I'm doing a small give-away. If you've read this far, post a comment to be entered in the drawing. I'll draw the winner Tuesday morning.
Thanks for reading Creative Soul.

4 Other Creative Souls are Saying:
"Flash fiction"
I've been feeling the urge to create some "flash paintings" lately. I attribute it to spring fever! My usual painting technique with acrylics is precise and painstaking, so sometimes I need the freedom of watercolor with its quickness and less-is-more approach.
Cloe did a great job on her swap package. Thanks for joining the swap.
I received your package and will post photos later. Thanks so much.
I've never participated in a swap. I have no idea why. Looks like you got some great little goodies there. You were also VERY creative this week. Good on you, Deb!
Enjoyed reading about your swap. I have never been to one but it does sound interesting to say the least.
I really did enjoy your photos of the one that Cloe did of the Texas Rangers.
Have a great day
