My wish for you for the holidays.



Peace and Tranquility

I am passing this on to you because it definitely works, and we could all use a little more peace and tranquility in our lives. By following simple advice heard on the Dr. Phil show, you too can find inner peace. Dr Phil proclaimed, "The way to achieve inner peace is to finish all the things you have started and have never finished."

So, I looked around my house to see all the things I started and hadn't finished, and before leaving the house this morning, I finished off a bottle of Merlot, a bottle of Bailey's Irish Cream, a package of Oreos, the remainder of my old Prozac prescription, the rest of the cheesecake, some Doritos, a box of chocolates, and the last bit of the tequila.

You have no idea how freaking good I feel right now. Pass this on to those whom you think might be in need of inner peace and tranquility.

I found this wonderful card and CASED it.

http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/ga...;ppuser=114382

I kept almost the same layout and I used a snowman also.

I changed the blue to red and I embossed the entire background. I added a punched sentiment and used the spiral punch for decoration. I changed the ribbon to a red, green & white and I made the card base red.
