Well Louisville got struck with tons of snow and then ice and then BAMM power at my house went out(1/28/09)… SO until I get power back in my home we can’t host the 18 days of Love nor post items for we have VERY limited access to computers and all of our files are on our computer……
Hopefully we will be back up soon!

For the next 18 days I’ll be posting LOVE themed cards you can make or purchase to share with your loved ones! At the same time you can enter to win a set of cards to use for your own little notes… All you have to do is comment about the card and how that love theme inspires you.
Stay tuned for the first Love card later today!

So Etsy is doing a great service project for Valentines — Share Your Love. They have partnered up with Citymeals-on-Wheels add an extra bit of love with your meal — handmade Valentine!
You can read about it by clicking the image below.
Now we are going to send some cards but are also thinking of how we can do something similar locally.

I know I’m posting this late Monday but today for the first day back to work and school so pretty hectic schedule. I pray all are having a good new year and that you are keeping to your goals and desires!
With the holidays over you now have time to thank everyone for the gifts you were given! So today I want to show you a thank you card. I think the new year is a great time to get in the habit of sending some form of greeting that ISN’T an email! And since you have fresh thoughts of thanks for your gifts (playing, wearing, or using the gift) why not make that be the first set of cards you send out!
As you know you can find this on our Etsy site.
Ask yourself — do I have any special events coming up? If the answer is yes you better verify the address, pick a handmade greeting for that special person in your life, and put it in the mail or hand deliver!
While I’m at it let me remind you key dates for January:
January – Garnet – Carnation
8 – 14 – Write a letter of Appreciation Week
12 – Clean Off Your Desk Day
19 – Martin Luther King Jr. Day
23 – National Handwriting Day
I will discuss these dates as they get closer!

I have heard and kept it
In honor of Kwanzaa I thought i’d post this card for motivation – what I like about it is that you have to really reflect on what wisdom has been passed down to you. “I have heard and kept it” — are you applying wisdom passed onto you in your everyday life?
Please take time to let this quote marinate in your soul and inspire you!
