Quote Book ~ A Poem To Add To Your Book ~ My Wish For You

Today I'm sharing a poem for our "Quote Books".


My Wish For You


I wish for you
Comfort on difficult days,
Smiles when sadness intrudes,
Rainbows to follow the clouds,

Laughter to kiss your lips,
Sunsets to warm you heart,
Gentle hugs when spirits sag,

Friendship to brighten your being,
Beauty for your eyes to see,
Confidence for when you doubt,

Faith so you can believe,
Courage to know yourself,
Patience to accept the truth,
And "LOVE" To complete your life.
 
   
 
I thought I would share this poem today because I thought this would look great on a scrapbook layout, a tag, a card, or even on some type of home décor. Anyway, don't forget to stop back again for more quotes or poems next week. Hope you enjoy this poem!  (Ps. I found this poem at scrapbook.com)

Wouldn't This Make A Beautiful Wedding Shower? Or A Great Way To Dress Up A Wedding Party?

I thought today I'd share some fun ideas using the paper pack "Ivy Lane" (X7178B). Close To My Heart's Art Department used all three Cricut Collections to make the different shapes. How fun would going to a party that looked like this be! This just screams Spring! It would make a lovely wedding shower or a great way to dress up a wedding location without spending a ton of money. I think it's just so pretty!

Ps. If you want a more detailed list of items let me know and I can get it.

I'm Nuts About You ~ Valentine's Day Gift Idea ~ For The Non-Chocolate Lover!

Since today is Valentine's Day (hope it's a great day for you!) I thought I'd share a few items I made for my hubby. I wanted to decorate the can (it's cashews...he's not really a chocolate kind of guy)better but I ran out of time (plus he's a guy and will love eating what's inside...so I'm not going to sweat it). Just thought it was a cute idea so I wanted to share it.


 
Ps. I used my Cricut to cut out the tags / shapes. I used Washi tape (Z1933) on the tags (super easy to put together) and a few stamp sets (Words of Comfort C1524 / Holiday Tags D1560). I also added a little Black Shimmer Trim (Z1809) and the paper was Chantilly...which just retired.

Quote Book ~ A Poem To Add To Your Book ~ This Day At The Beach

Today I'm sharing a poem for our "Quote Books".


This Day at the Beach



Ocean breeze blowing, feet kick and splash,
Ocean waves breaking, on rocks with a crash.
Boys finding seashells, girls sifting sand,
Friends building castles, as high as they can.
I stretch my arms out, far as they'll reach
Oh, my what fun, on this day at the beach.
   
 
I thought I would share this poem today since so many are getting snow, ice, and rain. I thought everyone could use a warm picture in their head. Also, at some point I need to scrapbook my beach pictures...and now I'll be ready.  Anyway, don't forget to stop back again for more quotes or poems next week. Hope you enjoy this poem!  (Ps. I found this poem at scrapbook.com)
