Positive Effects When Your BLessings Overflow.

I believe in the power of positive thinking. In my art I love to use positive,encourage words and verses. To me this makes sense. But I have been doing some research to back  up my belief/theory.
Here in an article by Debi Livingston Boushey, BCH, CI she states that there is a "powerful phenomenon" for example that happens when you count your blessings. You begin to focus your mind on positive aspects of your life. You begin to feel energized,and grateful  for all the good stuff and push the negative out of your mind. Try it. Notice how you feel.

I believe too that when we gift these words by notes, cards and even in art, we have the ability to effect others in positive ways. Even when we can't be there. Just think how you can make someone feel every time they see your note or walk by your card. Or the art you picked for them. 
Pretty cool huh.

Give Away for Birthday Week

This year I want to celebrate my birthday week starting August 5 with all of you.

My sister-n-law loved her birthday. She would even buy herself gifts from us to ensure she got something she would love.(did this for Christmas too.) So we came up with Birthday Week. It was best if we started and ended the week on the birthday but sometimes like happened and we would start it on the day of our birthday. During your birthday week you might get a card,a little present, a flower, lunch. simple things.But it was a way to make you feel special.

YOU are special to me, my followers, and so all week I will be giving away presents to you.

 So be sure to LIKE my fan page and join in the party!

First day of Birthday week giveaway winner is Celeste S. Thank you to all of you who LIKED my fan page so far! let the party continue.
