you are all winners in our eyes. . .

hey friends! it's friday already... what fun things are you doing this weekend? have you seen the free encouragement project floating around the world wide web? i saw it some time ago but like to refer back to it every once in awhile when i need a little pick me up or am searching for the right words to say. 

booooooom posted this little gem last year-->

"So here’s the deal: There is just so much negativity all around us these days, have you noticed? It’s infesting the internet, it’s taking over the big screen, it’s cutting you off, it’s showing up on your bank statement, it’s staining your new shirt, it’s breathing down your neck, it’s not giving you a vacation, it’s talking behind your back, it’s stuffing you in a locker, it’s cheating on you, it’s charging you more, it’s giving you less, and it’s making you miserable!

It’s making me miserable! I don’t think I know of a single person who couldn’t use some encouragement, so here it is. . . a gallery of encouragement!"

check it out here.

woot woot!!! Thanks to Beth for letting me know about being the friday blinkie winner!!!! Anyone that frequents my blog knows that I absolutely *adore* Sassafras!!!

I'm a fan of "The Way I See It" which are on Starbuck cups...here is one that I saved:

The Way I See It#17

The world bursts at the seams with people ready to tell you you're not good enough. On occasion, some may be correct. But do not do their work for them. Seek any job, ask anyone out; pursue any goal. Don't take it personally when they say "no" - they may not be smart enough to say "yes."

Raquel -- I think you can go here

and get some help for adding the blinkie to your blog! I saw on your blog that you already have a links list and Sassafrass makes the html code real easy to copy -- so you just copy and paste the html into your links code list and then attach the photo!

I love Amy's 'quote and cards today!! ENcouragment is so much fun!!

I love your work! I just bought the stamp set you used. I never would have thought to use paper as you did with the owl print! I am an avid crafter who is a bit obsessed with organization. I have found the greatest craft furniture at the following website. I especially love the workbox. I am currently competing to win the EZ View desk. If you like, check out the site and vote for my entry in the giveaway gallery.
Thanks in advance.
