Cheer Up the Lonely - CCEE 1528

Tomorrow is national Cheer Up the Lonely Day so I am challenging you this week to create a card of friendship and encouragement to mail to someone you know who lives alone. I know it will bring them joy to hear that you are thinking of them!



The images I have used are from World of Dreams by Stampin' Up
and Be Encouraged by Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps.

Here are the cards created by the CCEE Team for this challenge:

  1. One of my favourite verses! We used to sing it a lot in French when we helped out with the choir in a Francophone church here. I really like your layout too - and the lovely silver cording.
