HOPE

{DT Project Path of Positivity: Challenge #7}

I am so thrilled to be part of this very special Design Team for 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 #7 at Path of Positivity is HOPE.  I used the beautiful Blossoms and Butterflies from Fresh Brewed.  You can purchase her here.   I cropped one of the original butterflies from the image in Photoshop and blew it up a bit and then printed it a few times. The images were coloured with copics and the sentiment with dry chalks.  The wonderful and inspiring sentiment, all about hope, was also designed by Lisa herself.

The design papers are from BasicGrey and the buttons from my stash.  The jewel stones are from Blueberry Bear.
