Little Witch



Isn't she a cute witch? I bet the Good Witch of the North wouldn't have to ask this cutie if she was a good witch or a bad witch! 

Fall was my inspiration for the card. I used the Sunflower background stamp. Sunflowers and Fall just go together. Stamp fom Greeting Card Kids. Colors: crumb cake, old olive, early espresso, and soft suede. Other things used, ribbon, lace, safety pin, dot embossing folder, aqua painter, and paper piercing tool. 

Didn't do a lot yesterday. I didn't have to cook since I had lots of leftovers so that was a plus. I did do my workout early as it was pretty hot and muggy out. Rained during the afternoon and we had some nice thunder and lightening. So most of the day I spent working on Christmas crafts. That was fun. 

Inspiration

Don't Quit
When you've eaten too much and you can't write it down,
And you feel like the biggest failure in town.
When you want to give up just because you gave in,
and forget all about being healthy and thin.
So What! You went over your points a bit,
It's your next move that counts...So don't you quit!
It's a moment of truth, it's an attitude change.
It's learning the skills to get back in your range.
It's telling yourself, "You've done great up till now.
You can take on this challenge and beat it somehow."
It's part of your journey toward reaching your goal.
You're still gonna make it, just stay in control.
To stumble and fall is not a disgrace,
If you summon the will to get back in the race.
But, often the struggler's, when loosing their grip,
Just throw in the towel and continue to slip.
And learn too late when the damage is done,
that the race wasn't over...they still could have won.
Lifestyle change can be awkward and slow,
but facing each challenge will help you grow.
Success is failure turned inside out,
the silver tint in a cloud of doubt.
When you're pushing to the brink, just refuse to submit,
If you bite it, you write it....But don't you quit!
