I made this for a family member facing some tough challenges right now. I kept it simple because her desk is busy already and I didn't want it to just blend. The flower is a CB folder and I just added punched pieces from the Boho Blossom punch and topped it with a Build a Brad. I had once considered getting rid of my Graceful Words & Wonderful Words 1&2 - so glad I hung on to them. Sometimes they are just what you need for a project!
It's a little tough to read the quote in this picture so here are the words:
"There are two days in every week that we should not worry about, two days that should be kept free from fear and apprehension. One is yesterday with its mistakes and cares, its faults and blunders, its aches and pains. Yesterday has passed forever beyond our control. All the money in the world cannot bring back yesterday. We cannot undo a certain act or take back a word we've said. Yesterday is gone. The other day we shouldn't worry about is tomorrow-with its impossible adversaries, its burdens, its hopeful promise, and poor performance. Tomorrow's sun will either rise in splendor or behind a mask of clouds, but it will rise and until it does, we have no stake in tomorrow, for it is yet unknown. This leaves only one day-today. Any person can fight the battle for just one day. It is only when we add the burdens of yesterday and tomorrow that we break down. The sadness comes not from the experience of today, but the remorse of bitterness for something which happened yesterday and the dread of what tomorrow may bring."
Thanks for looking.
