2022 Blessing Box with Stampin' Up! Gathered Wheat Bundle
November 11, 2022
The Blessing Box has become a tradition for me to share with you and here's the 2022 version created with the Stampin' Up! Gathered Wheat.
The idea behind the Blessing Box came to me when many would often tell me how much it meant to receive a card from me. And, when my brother told me he'd kept every card I'd ever made for him. It made me think about those who never receive a little "paper hug" in the mail. How could that be changed even if only for just a few?
And, so, the Blessing Box was created. A little box that holds 3 x 3 or smaller cards with a kind phrase, a verse from God's Word, or an uplifting message...just a random act of kindness. There is no signature, no credit; just sharing in hopes that it will be a blessing in someone's day.
Below is the video featuring this year's Blessing Box. Here's hoping you are inspired to create one of your own.
