Heart 2 Heart - Workin' 9 to 5

The challenge at Heart 2 Heart this week is "Workin' 9 to 5"... very appropriate with Labour Day just around the corner. I thought about the qualities that come with working as a woman in today's world and a mini stamp set came to mind - one that was featured at Close To My Heart's 2013 Convention. It is called "She Believed". I love the saying and it reflects confidence - a quality required by women in today's working society. 
My own confidence level has taken a huge hit with the number of personal struggles I have faced over the last two years so this is a project that really hit home for me. Although I am no longer working 9 to 5, confidence is something that all women require. It is such an important quality. This saying is one that is written on a board in my creative space so I see it daily. 


Join us at Heart 2 Heart this week and show us how you interpret "Workin' 9 to 5". We would love for you to share your projects with us. You have until the end of the month to enter any of the August challenges.
