Cheer Up! *CCCB* **TEN**



Hi all! I just LOVE the challenge this week from our hostess, Ros, at City Crafter Challege Blog! The theme is "Cheer Up" and the challenge is to create a Get Well/Thinking of You Project AND to USE SOMETHING DIGITAL. To brighten someone's day is really the most rewarding feeling of all! To think that perhaps with my little creations (that bring me such joy to create) that I might have the ability to bring a little sunshine into someone's day is just THE COOLEST! Aren't we blessed with our little hobby?!!! You are going to LOVE our FANTABULOUS sponsor this week...Digital Delights. They are so aptly named...these digital stamps really are a delight! When I first saw the image I used on my card, "Rainy Day Dilly Duck", it just made me smile it was so cute. All the digital stamps are and the winner will get THREE of them! Get on over to City Crafter Challenge Blog and see how the DT used these FAB images!

Now for something that brings me great CHEER...a countdown until my daughter gets home from her mission for our church in Paraguay....10 more days my friends! I will post a photo from her mission each of the next 10 days and a little related quote.
Leave a comment and your name will go into a drawing for a prize package that will go to the winner after she gets home. Everyday that you leave a comment your name will go into the hat again. I soooooooo want to share this JOY I am feeling!
Sending her off--This is when we took her to the Missionary Training Center-



Now for the quote. It is a tradition that when a missionary leaves they have a plaque on the wall of the church with where they are serving and when they are leaving and when they will come home and it has there picture on it. The missionary chooses a scripture that they would like to be on that plaque. This is the scripture that my daughter chose. It is her favorite and has always been a favorite of mine too:
"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths." Proverbs 3:5-6
I hope you are all feeling of GOOD CHEER today! Hugs, Cheryl
