Monthly Challenge.... Inspiration Cards

Good Day,

A Cowork recently asked my why i start my emails and other internal messages with Good day.

I have been doing that for YEARS... i really do know when i started doing this but it makes me feel good to start my messages with Good day.  Maybe by saying it so much it will actually be a good day.


The monthly challenge  in the Journal workshop was inspiration cards.

I want to inspire and be inspired and try to keep that ourlook so creating these cards will be a help.

While having dinner with my sister and her family they start conversation by telling about Roses and Thorns.  The good part of the day are the Roses of course and the bad part of the day are Thorns. 



Celebrate What make the day beautiful!  I really like this card 


Endure the trouble the may happen.  Well i guess it should say that will happen because there is alway some kind of trouble we face every day.  With the right attitude we make it through. 


Thrive.... when i close my eye and think on the word thrive.. BLOOM, DEVELOPE, FLOURISH, GROW, PROSPER, SHINE, ADVANCE, INCREASE, PROGRESS, RISE, RADIATE.
It is hard to put that all on a card so be prepared to see more cards with these words.  


Determination.  Ever see a plant grow through ashpalt in a parking lot.  That is what i mean by determination. 


Turmoil Resistant...  Ha !   At work we had a conversation about the different between resistant and proof.  The cell phone is to be water resistant not waterproof.  Downtime for the first time this year!   So with that conversation in mind I thought what do we all want to be  ...  Trouble free or Turmoil proof  when all we can hope for is be to Turmoil Resistant.


Right now these cards on are my cube wall.  Great conversation starters.  Love it. 

Have a great day everyone.

My discovery!

As a little girl I did not play with dolls, did not play house. I climbed trees and explored how things worked. Tried to make my bike do things it was not meant to do. My mother complain when I was a toddler she would dress me in frilly dresses to play and I would prompty find mud or dirt. My mother and father had a loving relationship but I really did not see my father much. He worked the night shift. I had a close relationship with my mother. She taught me to crochet and make clothes. She kept a beautiful home and was a great cook. I felt that my father did not appreciate her enough so I decided that I would not get married and deal with someone who did not appreciate me. When my mother died it totally crippled my father. I realized just how much he appreciated her. When she first died he would just sit in a chair and just stare for hours. Finally I started talking to him and he revealed just how much he needed her. Then I decided that I should not get married because I wou...

WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS DRESS!

I was inspired by this blog SEW MUCH FABRIC, SEW LITTLE TIME. She is using her fabric stash to create a basic wardrobe. I just love all the T’s and skirts that she has made, so I have decided to work on doing the same. But first (no I am not putting it off) I have to finish this dress that is making me angry. I had a wonderful tropical print fabric which would have been the perfect summer dress. I kept the fabric for several summers and did nothing with it. I finally decided the make a dress; unfortunately it was not a summer dress. Well it is a summer dress but its not the perfect summer dress. I have decided to go back to not making decision when I am on my cycle. (ironic, huh!) Granted when you have not had a cycle for two months the PMS that usually sounds the warning bell is not so loud. Never make decision to cut your hair(I'm wearing a wig her name is Oprah) or use perfect summer fabric on a non summer dress. So my project is to redo this dress and create the perfect su...
