A Joyful Heart

Hello Stamping Friends,

Today I come today bearing a card that speaks the truth for me.  A joyful heart is good medicine.  Proverbs 17:22

Sometimes life seems to simply be hard.  Whether is a crummy case of the flu, or a cold in the winter or something much more serious, everyone needs joy and cheer in their lives.  When a friend is down, this simple truth, sent on a handmade card, could lift spirits and bring joy.  

Consider it.  A simple act of kindness could change someone's entire day...

Now, on to all the details for this quick and easy card.  :-)

I made my card for the Paper Pal Arts sketch challenge this week and also the Create With Connie and Mary color challenge.  I also submitted my card to the Paper Players sentiment challenge!

For the focal image, I used the new photopolymer stamp set, Banner Blessings  and the designer paper from the Confetti Celebration.

I hope you enjoy it!

Coffee and Friends for Try Stamping On Tuesday #193

Hello Stamping Friends!

Well, my first design team card for Try Stamping On Tuesday is finally here!  Whoo Hoo!  The sketch this week has lots of visual interest and can be interpreted in different ways, so I challenge you to try it this week and see what you come up with!

As soon as I looked at it my mind immediately went to the Perfect Blend stamp set, and to the Paper Piecing technique.
