Stop by and check out these holidays as I am sure you are going to want to remember these holidays and include them in your card making projects!!!!!

This month I have done something a little different. This project is something I made in March. It is very simple but it is totally about relaxation. I was in a situation where I needed to be able to mentally go to another place and relax.. This little card was something I carried around in my pocket at work and at home..... It is very simple but this was an a big part of my recovery.


We will have blog candy to the lucky recipient that remarks on each site along the way!
Check out Lucy's blog for her project!

Thanks for stopping by and mark your calendar again next month to see what Holidays to Celebrate on September 8, 2012 for the next Calendar Girls Blog Hop!
