Beautiful You Preview & Giveaway!!! - Day 2
Welcome to Day 2 of our first Anni-VERVE-sary celebration! Yesterday, Julee shared with you the
quote that she chose for the Beautiful You set. Today, I'm going to share the one that I chose.
You can see my card using Beautiful You below or HERE in my gallery.
"Dance as if no one were watching, Sing as if no one were listening, Live every day as if it were your last." Why I chose this: This quote has always been very inspirational for me. Coming from a Musical Theater background and going through numerous auditions, I truly understand the difference between when I would dance or sing for an audience or a director/choreographer, and when I would dance or sing when "no one was watching." There is a feeling of freedom when no one is watching. No inhibitions, no self-consciousness, NO WORRY. As I tend to be a worrier, I need to be reminded to let go and enjoy today. This quote has always reminded me to do that.
Like what you see? You could WIN this set! Here's how: All you have to do for your chance to win is to comment on this thread before August 12 at 9 PM Central. That's it! We'll be picking a random commenter from each of the daily Beautiful You threads and will announce the 12 lucky winners during our release party on August 12! Good luck!

As always, another lovely card. I like the tall style and the stitching on just two sides makes it a little different. And the sentiment is one of my favorites too. Sandy

This is just terrific!!!! Your card with looks fantastic!!!! I really love how the quote is designed with the Dance, Live, and Sing larger and in script with the remainder of the wording smaller and in regular font. I love that you emphasized the main words in a different color. Great card and lovely quote and design.
