Take an Opportunity to Share Time -- for Path of Positivity

It's the first Monday of the month, which means it's the start of a new challenge at the Path of Positivity Challenge blog. This month's theme is 'Opportunity'.  

After thinking about this theme, and how I most appreciate using opportunities to share of myself, it seems I'm usually lacking in time to do what I'd really like to do.  Work gets in the way.  Family and commitments get in the way.  Yes, even crafting gets in the way.  Time is a gift, an opportunity to share it how ever we choose. Choose wisely!

I used Time With You

I used the pre-printed image, printing it twice, adding the sentiment to the bottom layer.  I fussy cut one layer, using foam tape to add dimension.

The designer papers are from Lisa Decosse, of Decosse's Dynamite Doodles. This set of papers is called "Christmas Time", but I thought it worked well for this time-themed card.  I cut the card base out on my Cricut, and wrapped some Timeless Twine around it. 

When you think of the word 'opportunity', what comes to mind for you?  Design a project around those thoughts, and link up this month at Path of Positivity.  We've got great sponsors, and I'd love to see what you make!

Merry & Bright -- for 12 Months of Christmas

Here we are at the mid-point of May already! That means it's time for some new inspiration on the 12 Months of Christmas Link Up.  Our optional theme this month is Christmas Critters.  Our wonderful sponsor is DeeDee's Digis.

Here's what I created:

This DeeDee's Digis image and sentiment is called Merry & Bright. I used the uncolored image, and colored it myself with Copic markers, then used a die to cut it into a tag.  

The penguin background paper is designed by Lisa Decosse for this challenge. It is one of the papers in the Christmas Critters papers set.  Check out her blog at Decosse's Dynamite Doodles. 

I also used a textured paper from Lisa's Textured Papers Set. 

I used a scallop edge punch from Close To My Heart for the edge of the card.  The shimmer trim is also from CTMH.  The Cherry Red baker's twine is from Timeless Twine. 

Come join us this month at the 12 Months of Christmas Link Up.  Link up 2 Christmas cards each month to be eligible for this cute paper yourself.  Follow the optional theme for your chance to win a prize from our sponsor.
