Hi Everyone!!  I finally was able to spend sometime in my craft room yesterday.  Yeah!!  I found this piece of ribbon sitting on my kitchen cabinet, not sure where it came from and no one in my household is claiming  it. I loved the yellow and orange color so it inspired me to make this "praying for you" card.  I hope it brightens your day. 



Sending you a cool day filled with flowers and hugs....

This past weekend I attended a conference for my TOPS club.  (weight loss programs-Take Off Pounds Sensibly) It was a very inspiring weekend with songs, motivational speakers, dancing, skits and lots of great information on good health.  The theme was "The road to Success"  kind of like the The Wizard of Oz following the yellow brick road.  Be warned I upload lots of pictures...  

We were the decorating community.

The banner we all made together.  Don't you just love the suit cases?

Here are some of the beautiful ladies in our group.

One of the other chapters made these dolls from the Wizard of OZ.

I have lots of birthdays in June.  These two cards are for my Son James and his girlfriend Brittny. 

This card is for Brittny. She loves zebra stripes. 

Inside the card. 
Here she is with the zebra broom and dish brush I bought her. 
This card was for my Son James. 

This is the card opened. 
Here is a quote I thought you would enjoy.  Sending you happy thoughts........

Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now. Don't wait for something outside of yourself to make you happy in the future. Think how really precious is the time you have to spend, whether it's at work or with your family. Every minute should be enjoyed and savored.
