Sigh....no words tonight other than, these: I. am. crazy. in. love. with....Prima's new Tales of You & Me collection by Frank Garcia. It meets this shabby, girl's crafty desires :).
This sweet honeybee is one of my most favorite tidbits in the collection. Adorably sweet.
You can check out more of this beautiful line, HERE on the Prima blog.
Loving this quote today, and isn't it oh, so true. Can't we women be kinder and gentler to each other? Can't we fill the world with soul saving goodness? My spirit has been touched and lifted a time or two through someone reaching out to me, and I will forever be thankful.
On another note, my teensie, tiny, little 7th grader brought home a tuba today...bigger than she is. I watched her drag it off the bus and I nearly spit my drink out...funniest thing I have ever seen. I knew it was coming home with her, but hadn't prepared myself for the sight of the two of them together :). She ran into every wall in sight trying to get it down the hall tonight. Love this precious time with her...and this memory.
Night.

Thank you for sharing the tuba story. I laughed out loud. Those little guys bring so much joy to us!! And while I'm at it, I want to say thank you for all of the inspirational messages you post. I have pinned so many of them so I don't forget. You are a blessing. Beautiful cards too and, I am sure, a heart to go along with. Happy Day!

Hey Melis, beautiful as always. Me too, that's the first place my eyes went, the bee! I'm allergic to them but love them for decorating and crafting. I guess you could say there's a live, hate relationship, haha. I story while waiting for my 7th grader to get out of school. While reading your tuba story I burst out laughing and my hubby was in the car and he looked at me like I had lost my darn mind, I had to read the story to him. Always love your quotes of the day. I agree, I remember even the smallest gestures. What an awesome feeling when someone goes out of their way to do something nice for you and vice versa. It's one of the reasons I love this hobby, I've made some wonderful relationships, wether in person, emails, phone conversations or even just reading a post. As a woman and mother we can all relate to one another. Thanks for sharing and always inspiring.

Love your card using the new line. The layers and colors are beautiful! The tuba story conjures up some funny pics :) The scripture you shared is a wonderful one. If we could all just practice it daily think what a great difference it would make!
