I am so thrilled to have been approached by the wonderful and very special Lisa to become part of her very first Design Team for her Path of Positivity Challenge. This challenge is quite unique in a way as the themes for the monthly challenges are all about being Positive. In the words of Lisa herself:
"To that end, I have been inspired to create a place where I can come to see projects or posts that provide help, hope, courage, love, forgiveness, peace, motivation, encouragement, etc. A place to come especially on those days when the woes of the world just seem too much to bear. This is a place I would like to share with others who feel as I do. Therefore, welcome to the 'Path of Positivity Challenge' -- a different sort of challenge blog designed to inspire, nurture and provide support for the soul by creating a positive path to follow, one project or post at a time!"
This week our theme for Challenge #4 at Path of Positivity is CARING. I used the adorable Punkette Petite from DigiStamps4Joy. You can purchase her here. I chose her because it really looks like she cares a great deal about her teddy. The wonderful and inspiring sentiment, all about caring, was also created by Lisa herself.
The flowers were created with scallop square punches. The flourishes were stamped with Acrylic Stamps. The design papers are from FabScraps and Love to Create.

The sponsors and prizes for this challenge are:
- Ten digital images from Creative Bug Digital Stamps for the person out of the top seven who receives the most votes during voting week
- Three digital images from Ike's World for the post or project that the DT deems most inspiring of the bunch.
- Five digital images from this month's guest sponsor, Digi Stamps 4 Joy, for a person chosen in a random draw based on all entrants.
- One digital designer paper from Décosse's Dynamite Doodles for one lucky voter who leaves a comment.
- One digital sentiment for every single person who enters the challenge.
Hope you will play along this month, so come on link your CARING creations to Path of Positivity Challenge No.4. Can't wait to see your caring creations. Receiving a free sentiment just for entering the challenge should be a great incentive in itself - and Lisa's sentiments are wonderful judging by the one I used on my card.
