A Blessing A Day {Day 21}
Today was also our homeschool co-op day and this week I do have pictures of our craft. The name of my class is "Crafts-n-Junk." We are making craft/gift items out of things that might otherwise be thrown away. Our project this week was a bookmark that we made our of a scrap of material that was used in packaging some towels I bought a while back. The 4th-6th graders did a great job sewing & stamping on these today.
Anxious to be back on track with my blessing a day challenge! Hope you'll join me.

A Blessing A Day {Day 12}
So we are cutting & pinning & sewing this weekend. We also attempted to apply fake fingernails, but in the end all she had was blue fingers! Apparently the die from blue nail polish remover really soaks into your skin. I told her it would surely be gone before her semi-formal dinner on Monday....we'll see. I am so blessed to have a daughter that will spend her Sat. evening shopping and hanging out with her mom. :) And I am blessed to have a mother that helped me to learn to sew also. I guess doing this for her is as much a blessing for me as for my daughter, but I'll count it for today anyway.

A Blessing A Day {Day 11}
I also worked on some Valentines today, but if I post them my family will see and I want it to be a surprise. Maybe I'll post them Monday. The month is not half over yet. You still have plenty of days to bless others intentionally if you want to join me in my challenge for the month. I am loving it and can't wait to see what the rest of the month holds.

A Blessing A Day {Day 10}
The first one has the fruits of the Spirit listed along with the reference in Galaltians.
The next one is a small 4X4 quilted picture. I was so pleased with the way my quilted card turned out yesterday that I just had to repeat that technique. The picture really doesn't do it justice. It turned out so cute!
So what do you think? Would you bid on these? I am praying for this family and for the church as they support and encourage them. I hope you'll join me. My journey continues...

A Blessing A Day {Day 9}
The blessing a day journey will continue tomorrow. I am so thankful for opportunities to show others that I care. Hope you are doing the same.

A Blessing A Day {Day 1}
Well it is Feb. 1 and that marks the beginning of my Blessing A Day challenge. I made this card for my parents. They are both dealing with health issues right now & since I can't reach my arms from Arkansas to Indiana, I sent them a hug in the form of a card. :) Hope it brightens their day. Tomorrow I may send a card with a summer theme to my friends in Columbia, MO who are dealing with blizzard conditions! Wish I was there with you....really I do. We have rain here, but no snow :(
You can still join me in the quest to be a blessing to someone, somewhere everyday in Feb. I personally am commited to creating an item each day, but you can be a blessing to others with an intentionally spoken kind word, a smile shared with a stranger, or by cooking a meal for your family. The point is to focus on someone other than yourself and let them know you care. I hope you'll join me.
