Wholeheartedness

I have joined the "An Attitude of Gratitude" Challenge. I started seeing daily gratitude statuses on Facebook and thought it was an awesome idea. Then I saw a group challenge and a link to their blog. Love! The challenge is to create a daily journal page and write down what you are grateful for. Bernice makes it super easy, she posts daily journal prompts and you have plenty of time to complete your pages. There are no rules. This is my journal, my way period.
I started yesterday, November 2nd and I'm sharing Day One with you today.

There's a Starting Point - journal prompts; a quote; a Bible scripture; video inspiration and a technique challenge.  Day one's technique is to use a color you don’t like, or one you don’t use very often

The large fan border was a free cut file from Designs on Cloud 9; the circle border is a background stamp by Latina Crafter.  I finally broke open the Momenta metal embellies I won this summer, the set of thank yous didn't have a "thankful" but I think it still works.
I created a matchbox with a velcro closure for my journaling.


I created my own title on SCAL, looks like I need to add a little more glue to the "a". LOL  I also used floral rub-ons from Basic Grey.  I have a stash of rub-ons at least 7 years old!  Yikes!
