* Path of Positivity: Love Ewe

Hello!

Today is the midway point at the Path of Positivity challenge.

The challenge lasts for the month of February.

This month the theme is Anything Goes with the optional twist of

Celebrate Those You Love.

Prizes this month include:

$12 Store Voucher from Bugaboo Stamps, our guest sponsor for this month, for a person chosen in a random draw based on all qualifying entrants.
ONE image (value of $5 or less) from Scribbles Designs, for the post or project that the team deems most inspiring of the bunch based on all qualifying entrants.
One digital image from Creative Bug Digital SnapShots for each person chosen as a DT Delight.

Our optional theme this month is Celebrate Those You Love.

You could look beyond the traditional Valentine and maybe encompass all those you love and cherish. Of course you could make a traditional Valentine project, but you could also include friendships, ideals, pets or any person that you love and cherish. Also this concept could include the new ways we interact with one another during the pandemic.

Please remember in order to be eligible for the prizes your project must be positive, inspirational, motivational or encouraging in some way.

For my midway DT project I made a Valentine Card. I gave it to my hubby. We've been married for 39 years this April, so I hope the love I feel for him speaks for itself.

I chose this fabulous Love Ewe image from Bugaboo Stamps. We both love nature and visiting the countryside. There is nothing funnier or sweeter than watching the new lambs gambolling about in fields while their frazzled mothers bleat after them.

I coloured my sheep with Copic markers and made the background with a Tim Holtz 3D Texture Fade embossing folder called Intertwined. It is the nearest thing I have to knitted wool. I swiped Distress Ink onto card and spritzed it before embossing.

The heart is a Tim Holtz Impresslit (it cuts and embosses at the same time). This is from a set called Lucky Love.

The background was inked with Vintage Photo around the edges and some heart trim added across the bottom. The sheep image was popped on foam on top of the trim with his head resting on the heart pillow. The sentiment comes with the image - I cut it with a banner die and mounted it onto red card.

Many thanks to Bugaboo Stamps this month's guest sponsor,

and to Scribbles Designs as the ongoing sponsor of the challenge

We would love to see your creations!
