2013 A Blessing A Day {Day 2}

I think today's blessing was as much for me as for the recipient!  We took a little road trip to Jackson, TN to see our son and to deliver needed items that were left at home last weekend (the most important of which was the current license plate for his car, since the old one expired Thurs...yikes!)  What a blessing to visit Andrew even for just a short time.  :)  Tomorrow is Sunday and I am expecting many opportunities to bless those around me.  Hope you will too!

2013 Blessing a Day!!! {Day 1}

Each day during February, I will be working on something that will bless someone else.  I will share my progress on here so you all can help keep me accountable, and maybe get some ideas on blessing those around you.

Today's project is a hybrid scrapbook page.  One of my friends is putting together a scrapbook for a pastor that has been influential in her life, and many others.  She is gathering pictures and testimonies from people all over the country, and I have the honor of putting it all in a book.  On this page I used this pastor's favorite verse...

Although this will be a traditional scrapbook, there will still be plenty of opportunities to use My Digital Studio for designing and making page elements.  Since I don't have a 12 X 12 printer, I designed the main elements in My Digital Studio, printed it on 8 1/2 X 11 paper, then trimmed it, embellished it and attached it to a piece of 12 X 12 scrapbook paper.  I would LOVE to have an opportunity to show you how easy it is to create a page like this using your computer and some basic crafting supplies.  Let me know if you are interested! :)

The month has just begun, I hope you will consider joining me in this adventure of being intentional about blessing the people around me everyday in February!
