I've been feeling a little blue lately and unappreciated. Shame on me! A while back my sweet sister sent me an email titled "Bank Account". It's probably one that has been around, but it was the first time I had seen it and it made an impression. It is too long to post on my blog, but here is part of the email:
So, my advice to you would be to deposit a lot of happiness in the bank
account of memories!
Thank you for your part in filling my Memory Bank. I am still depositing.
'Remember the five simple rules to be happy:
1. Free your heart from hatred.
2. Free your mind from worries.
3. Live simply.
4. Give more.
5. Expect less.
So here's my card. It's one of my favorites and I've been saving it. And today I ran across High Hope's 100th Challenge Anything Goes.

Yes, I am still a little camera challenged. I wanted to show off how I punched out the balls with some coordinating paper. They were the perfect size. I colored Jiggles with Copics, used a Spellbinders circle die, a little ribbon and topped it off with some Stickles on the flower in his pocket. The paper is DCWV from Hobby Lobby.
The day is mostly over, so I'll wish everyone a deposit for their "Bank Account".
(I would be happy to forward the entire email to anyone. My email address is with my profile.)
