1 Brand New Official Business Owner

Happy Monday Everyone.  This post won't be too long. I just wanted to spread some absolutely wonderful news.

As many of you know, this blog was started to create a space to share my crafts, many thoughts of life and to trace the steps of me becoming a business owner of my very own greeting card line. Well folks that day arrived.

June 17th, 2013, The Gift Is Yours, LLC was legally born. I am so excited, humbled and blessed. The LLC process would have not been so easy going if it were not for this AMAZING program known as Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts. (I'll be blogging about them later)

Now all I can say is; keep your eyes wide open. The Gift Is Yours, LLC will be making its mark for all to see.

Lastly, I would like to thank everyone who has supported me up until this point with my career. I am so grateful

Well folks like I said before,  keep your eyes wide open,  I'll make sure you'll have lots to see really really soon! (Like the revamping of my blog, shhhhhh)

Lots of Love

Meagan

So what do you think about me gaining my LLC? Have you experienced any recent milestones in your life?  I'd love to hear from all of you!!!!

Be sure to share this post with your friends.  Hearing some good news may brighten their day!

Ms. Ashley Brown: Winner of The Sunshine Birthday Challenge

A little less than a month ago, I had the crazy idea to host a birthday challenge.  I figured a great way to mark my time on earth was by doing for others.  Then I thought an even better way to mark my time here on earth was to encourage others to do for others.  That is how The Sunshine Birthday Challenge was born.  My Birthday is May 14th every year. (Just in case you missed it this year, hehe) That is why the challenge consisted of 14 days of acts of kindness and service. I wanted to prompt people to realize we can do a little everyday to give back to the many who live in this world.

On to the Winner

I am so proud to announce the prize winner of a $50 Carol's Daughter Gift Card and The Sunshine Birthday Challenge, a woman who went above and beyond on each act of kindness and service she performed:  Ms. Ashley Brown.

So Ashley, tell us a little about yourself.

My name is Ashley Brown and I'm a Criminal Justice/Business Admin specializing in Public Safety Major. I'm a 911 Tele-communicator. 

What did you think when you heard about The Sunshine Birthday Challenge?

When I found out about the birthday challenge I was immediately intrigued. Although I already find ways to help people in my everyday life, I felt it would be a more in-depth task. It would allow me to get out of my comfort zone and extend a helping hand. 

If anything, what did you gain from participating in The Sunshine Birthday Challenge?

Helping and assisting people is my biggest accomplishment and it simply makes my heart smile. I thank God for giving me the gift; I am thankful.

Matthew 5:16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that  they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.

If you would like to connect with Ashley a woman who is beautiful inside and out, check her out at:  envymybeauty@facebook.com

I would like to thank everyone who took time to participate in the challenge and I hope everyone realized that the real prize was doing for others out of the goodness of their hearts.

See you all again next year!!!!

Lots of Love,

Meagan
