I am addicted to quotes, I think the right quote can help any mood. SO, all you have to do is comment on this post with one of your favorite quotes! You are allowed one quote/comment per day and I will be using the Random Number Generator to pick the winner on April 18! So make sure you come back daily to see each new card I post and to add your daily quote. That's right, it's a week's worth of Little Paper Shop!

This card is a fun and quick note card! I actually made about 10 of these to give to my mom for Mother's Day! As aforementioned they use the bird house and bird from 'Delightful Garden'. I colored it with the following copics: G24, E33, YR04, YR09, YR14, Y000. The white parenthesis rub-ons are from American Crafts.
ETA: Make sure you stop by tomorrow for another chance to enter to win this card AND a brand new COPIC tutorial using Little Paper Shop stamps!!! I haven't done one in a while because I have been so busy, but after turning in two huge papers, I have a more time to share with you!
As always,
Enjoy!

Funny story quote inspired... there is a boy named Lucas in my dd's class & everytime I see him I think... 'Luke, I am your father' ~ but I change it to Luke, I am not your mother.... my daughter isn't too amused by that...

Ok, I'm inspired by this little Blog Candy 'quote' contest...so today's quote is: Stop & smell the roses ~ as I get older I'm learning how fast life is flying by ~ my dds are growing so fast & I just don't know how it happens ~ so every once in awhile I just have to remind myself to 'stop & smell the roses' ~ make some good memories of what is happening today & stop rushing & worrying about tomorrow. I tell the girls that we are making 'good' memories! (a good digital camera helps as well ~ sparks the 'ole brain).
Ok I've rambled enough ~ Hope everyone makes some good memories today!
My quote for the day would be, from my pastor a few weeks ago..."remember to keep the Main Thing, THE Main Thing. Thanks so much for the chance to win!!
