The Associate Minister for Pastoral Care at our church is retiring (she is over ninety and it is time for a little rest!). At coffee hour this Sunday, there will be a reception and a chance for members of the congregation to leave sticky notes with messages and good wishes for her on the display board I made yesterday.
I needed to get this together quickly since on Friday I will be leaving to take my son back to college. I was lucky to find science project display boards in many colors at Michael's - I thought this yellow was bright and cheery for what could be a dull January day.
The leafy branches are from Storybook and the flowers are from Walk in My Garden - cut in two colors and two sizes and layered with yellow circle centers. I bent the petals up a bit before I put them together.
Just a quick post to show you something different that I did with my bug! I think it will be bright and cheery for the retirement celebration.
Beautful - what a great gift.

How wonderful of your church body to do this for her. She is sure to love it. God bless her for working up to the age of 90!!

This is a beautiful and cheery board. I'm sure Margaret will appreciate it. How sweet of you. I love these poster boards for projects but I didn't know they came in different colors. I will have to check them out.
