@Kristynsmama

@BlissfulBue
The letters colors are purple & blue just like the color of the ribbons in the kit & the blue & purple background of the horse 🐎 graphic. It is a pretty horse 🐴 theme graphic, Bue ☺
@VictoriaLove7 Thank you :)


@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
It is a cute Christmasy theme graphic, Sunshine! 🌞❤
The cat with Santa's hat has this face '😊', it is cat graphic because it is for purrfectly fine 🐈⬛
The letters color is red just like the font color in the graphic, the background color, the Santa's hat worn by the cat, the socks, & the cherry fruits. The hearts are in green just like the color of the leaves, the names are in black because the stars colors in the graphic is black ©️ Sunshine's original cute style! 🤗❤

My favorite thing about Hotaru's daily shares is how comfy and happy she is with small moments of self care and coziness. This is why I send virtual healing tea 🍵🍵🍵 because I know she takes her time to feel the warm cup in her hands, smell the tea and sip it mindfully. I believe this is how Hotaru does a lot of things in life and that's what enjoying life is about."

@Sunisshiningandsoareyou
It is a pretty soft pink & soft blue flowery graphic, Sunshine! 🌞❤ I also like the healing tea 🍵 gif, it looks yummy 😋❤
The letters color is purple because the font color for the message in the graphic is purple, the names & the hearts are in blue because the graphic background is blue ©️ Sunshine's owlsome sweet style! 🥳❤
Adding on, I love when Hotaru talks about Bosco :)

Thank youu, Sunshine! 🌞❤🥺❤ for making the very very cute turtle 🐢 theme graphic 😭🥺❤ for Teeny 🐢 from me 🤗❤ The turtle 🐢 shows Teeny & the rainbow shows the appreciator (🤗❤ me 🌈).
The letters color are green because it is the turtle 🐢 color & the font color for the names in the graphic, orange for Teeny's name just like the shells color & the other turtle color, red for my name 🤗❤, & the hearts are purple because the font color for the message in the graphic is purple.
Then, me name is also in soft orange, soft blue, & soft purple, just like the colors of the rainbow 🥺❤. Teeny's name in your message is in navy blue because it is the color of the sea in the Sunshine 🌞❤ on Teeny 🐢 graphic ©️ Sunshine's original cute style! 🥳❤

A Secret Friend is here to give a special shout out to @YourCaringConfidant it’s a week deserves shout out! Here’s what the secret friend had to say:
The gingerbread house you made for me was really cute! Thank you so much. It is no lie that you are very talented and you sharing that with me, even though we weren't well acquainted was really sweet. I appreciate that. And from the little chat we had in forum, you are a lovely person :) Now gemini twin, can you guess who I am?


@Kristynsmama Thank you so much for delivering this sweet note to me. It's sooo pretty and definitely made my heart smile.
I would like to think a certain minion is my secret friend and if so, I would like to ask if we can make it official? What do ya say, Gemini Twin? ♡ *smiles* Thank you for thinking of me and for thos very beautiful, kind note. I'm grateful. @BlissfulBue

To Morgan -
It is great to see how much
you have accomplished as a member!
Keep up the great work!
To Sully -
Welcome to 7Cups!
@heathermarie95
The background color of the graphic is blue, so the letters are in blue. The warm hug shows the mocha bear was freezing in grey, but then becomes brown after the warm hug ☺ hihi


@LoveMyMoonflowers
The letters color is light blue & light purple for the names, the hearts are blue & purple, because the frame colors of the graphic is light blue & light purple. Also because the font color in the graphic is light purple. (Nii's signature ☺ '🌙🌸 ' )
It is a pretty soft graphic, Nii! 🌙🦁☺
@VictoriaLove7
thank you, rainbow bear! 🌈 *hugs if okay* <3<3

@EmpathysGarden @YourCaringConfidant Riley!! Desiree!! Guys!!! Oh my god.. I don't even know where to begin!! Thank you?! I'm just so in shock! I haven't been active on 7 Cups for about 2 years until about 10 days ago, yet I'm being appreciated all of a sudden.. just wow. I'm so glad to be a listener again - not for the praise but for knowing that I can genuinely make a meaningful, positive and noticeable difference in the lives of others. I couldn't ask for a better welcome, as I not only recently started listening again - I'm also starting my internship tomorrow! Thank you so so much, you two!! 💖💖 I know you two especially do so much for 7 Cups - way more than I do actually given the roles you've taken on and programs you've completed - so make sure to appreciate yourselves too!! I look up to you two and hope to take on some roles in the near future to better serve the 7 Cups community as well. Thank you guys so so much again for everything!! Let's stay in touch!
The bear picture was SO cute and punny too!! Don't mind if I screenshot it!!!!! 😱🤪😀
@BearListens Happy New Years!!
@EmpathysGarden Omgggggg it's you!!! The incredible, passionate smile spreader I met in LCR. ♡ I was just not long telling someone wonderful about you. I remember your name Riley and garden part. But it didn't dawn on me to come here. I would surely sent an appreciation for you at the same time. 🤣 The three of us bonded so well that day and y'all just made such an impression on me! Thank you soooooo much, Riley, for being the one to deliver the note to 🐻. You did an absolute wonderful job! Hope you have been doing great and soooo good to see you again. ♡

@Sirenofserenity received this special appreciation from a secret friend. Here’s what the secret friend has to say:
Academy check-ins! That's where I got to meet you. Just wanted to appreciate and thank you for all the help you gave me during my programs. It was really a pleasure meeting you, and it was really sweet that you made Africa the password for one of the sessions. That meant a lot to me. I think you can guess who I am from that haha.


@Kristynsmama Aww :'3 This looks and feels wonderful to receive, I'm 100% aware of who this is and thank you @BlissfulBue (hoping I spelled that right) I'm also really happy you appreciated the password that day 🩷 I wasn't sure if it would leave an impact but I'm glad it did, you were very consistent in joining the check ins very respectful and supportive whether it was busy or quiet. I hope you continue to go far and happy new year!
@SirenOfSerenity
You did spell it correctly ✨ haha, it did leave an impact, thank you for everything Siren, Happy New Year to you too! ✨✨✨
@Kristynsmama thank you so much for making this beautiful graphic😊
