OUR HEART AND SOUL

There is nothing that compares to that little bit of well-being you experience when you have your favourite beverage in hand. It could be the moment of peace you get when you sip coffee during a busy work day. Or the fellowship experienced sharing a pot of tea while catching up with a cherished friend. It could even be the feeling of joy as you toast an accomplishment with champagne or unwind with a beverage to ease out of a hectic day. Whatever you have in hand, your favourite drink is sure to give you pause and bring a smile— and so will these cards and scrapbook pages!
