Have You Said......


How important it is to tell others thank you......often!  Whenever I find myself feeling down I try to count my blessings.  When I do so, I find myself compelled to thank others for how they touch my life in wonderful ways!  The other day my young daughter came up to me and for no reason at all gave me a hug.  How special it is to know her love in such a simple gesture!
I have created this card for the new challenge over at Card Crafter's Circle. This week its about Giving Thanks.  If you're celebrating Thanksgiving or just wanting to let someone know you're thankful for them, we'd love to see your creations!

My card I've used an image by our wonderful sponsor Milk Coffee called Flower for Mom.  I've coloured it up with my pencil crayons and inked the edges with yellow and old paper distress ink.  The papers are from Sweet Afternoon collection by Teresa Collins (I've inked the edges just a bit). The sentiment is from Studio g and the rhinestones are Forever in Time.
Do pop over to the Card Crafter's Circle to see the design team's creations!
With all this said, I want to thank each of you who stop by to see my blog!  Regardless of whether you leave comments (although I love hearing from you!) it's wonderful to know you take the time to see what I've been doing! I pray you'll have a wonderful day!

Oh this is precious, and yes, it is very important to give thanks! I have been trying to set this in stone in my son from an early age! Hopefully one day it will click when he is older.
