I had no idea how wonderful the various stamp sets could be for that motivation until I started this art therapy project. I found that, while working on a card for someone else, the various stamp sets with positive and joyful messages (or just beautiful and fun artwork) also made me happy and kept me in the right frame of mind. That is one of the main reasons I am so attracted to the Altenew line of stamps. They are unbelievably positive and good for the soul.
Card making is a very "giving" hobby and I find that we sometimes neglect to give to ourselves.
So, with that said, this project was purely selfish on my part. This time I wasn't making cards for someone else to encourage them and lift them up; I was just doing it for myself. I believe that giving to yourself is just as important as giving to others. And, with that, I took the Altenew sets that I own and made a set of "yearly encouragement tags". My intention is to keep them right in front of me each month and just keep myself focused. It is like sending a card to yourself each time you look at them! The joy and beauty of each stamp set as well as the varying quotes just make me happy. And, I hope that it makes you happy as well. Jude :-)
