Aezine second week challenge- Happy 3x5

The challenge set Wednesday 10th, is to be shared today.
We had to make a 3x5 card & use our dictionary defintion of our chosen word.
I had used a portion of mine on my layout & a happiness quote on my Hapy Tag, so this is just the meaning as the dictionary gives it.
Not sure I like the reference to murder a whole lot...lol, but this card will move to whichever room I am working in so I can see it.
I used a white gelly roll pen on the button to give it hair & a smile.
I didn't want it heavily embellished as I don't want the eyes lead too far from the reason behind the card. Too many twiddly bits & you won't see the words.
I completed my BOM layout last night so will be able to share it tomorrow.
I am getting happiness from doing these challenges as they are making me discover myself.
I changed the design twice before I got it finished & normally I agonise for days!!! So I am definately keeping my new style flowing.

I'm behind with this owing to the fact that I had to bring some work home with me this weekend - and it took a lot more time than I'd hoped. Plus, I fell off the wagon on Friday... so spent Saturday in a rather delicate condition. Then, on Sunday I broke my blog, which took forever to put right.

A heap of bad stuff all round. Hopefuly I'll catch up with everything this week, before I'm swamped completely in post it notes!
