May Your Day be Filled With Sunshine!

What is your definition of prosperity?  We're starting a new challenge today at the Path of Positivity Challenge Blog.  This month, the challenge theme is prosperity.  Some define prosperity as having wealth, riches. For me, I define prosperity by having a rich and full life, a life full of friends, a life spent collecting hearts and sunshine.

We have 3 wonderful sponsors this month at Path of Positivity Challenge Blog.  We're sponsored by: 

The digi I used on this card is from The Stamping Boutique.   She's called "Summer Fun with Audrey".  I colored the image with Copic markers,  then used 2 sizes of a Spellbinders die to frame it.  The papers are digi papers I printed on my new color laser printer, found at Pixel Scrapper.  The foil hearts were made with my new Minc Foil machine (fun!)  The lace is from Really Reasonable Ribbon.

Please join us this month at Path of Positivity, and share your definition of "prosperity." I'd love to see how you interpret it and see what you make!

Life and Dancing -- for Path of Positivity

It's a new month, a new challenge, and there's a brand new theme at the Path of Positivity Challenge blog.   This month, the theme is Resiliency.  One of our sponsors is The Stamping Boutique.  I used a spring flower to illustrate Resiliency:

I used the Stamping Boutique digi, Daffodil to create this card.  I colored the Daffodil with Copic markers, then cut it out with a die from Paper Wishes.  The sentiment seemed to fit the Resiliency theme very well. 

Papers for this card are all from Close To My Heart.  The ribbon is from 3 Girl JAM.  The butterfly die is from Paper Wishes.  Pearls are from my stash.

Few things are as resilient as spring flowers in Northwest Wisconsin, where I live.  Daffodils are among the hardiest.  They often bloom, then get snowed on and frozen repeatedly, but somehow they survive and remind us all that warm weather is coming.   I realize this is a strange time of year to be showcasing a daffodil, but it is certainly resilient. 

Join us this month at Path of Positivity for our Resiliency-themed challenge.  I'd love to see how you interpret it!
