This month the theme is "Generosity"
Coming right off from the holidays, I am sure we have lots of inspiration from the Generosity given and received. It is easy to be generous during the month of December as everyone seems to also be in the giving mode. But it is important to be generous throughout the year. Generosity is a quality, like honesty and patience. It comes in all forms, not just a monetary. It is a quality of being kind, understanding and not selfish, something we can offer all year long.
The guest sponsor for the first half of the month is Digistamps 4Joy DS4J

| Vase of Hearts |
The image I chose to work with is Vase of Hearts, but she has some other wonderful images that would work perfect for Valentine's Day!
Here is what I came up with:
I love this quote because it is so true. If we all did something generous daily, imagine the impact we could make. It is simple, but says a lot.

Hey Monica,
ReplyDeleteI am so happy that you had the opportunity to be a guest over on our Path of Positivity during the month of January. Your card was a beautiful example of how important generosity is. As is what you had to say. Of course it is easy to be generous at Christmas but to be generous all year long is something everyone should strive for. Also as you say, it isn't just about money, there are so many ways to be generous including volunteering our time which you have done for this challenge.
Your card itself turned out just lovely. I really like the bluesy feel going on and that you left your banner sticking out over the edge. Gives it an even more interesting look. Great GDT entry!
Hugs,
Lisa
