Carded!

I have started to really enjoy making cards, which is a HUGE feat, if you look back a year ago...when card-making was 'just not my thing'.  I think I should credit the change to Simple Stories fantastic paper lines, they practically scrap themselves.

'You Are Loved'

{flat}

{inside}

This card was made using Simple Stories Baby Steps line, such an adorable line!  The {two} hearts have been cut from my Big Shot using the Tim Holtz Movers&Shakers Hearts die. {covered with Baby Steps paper} I have stamped the 'background' cardstock with Unity Stamps Distressed Dots stamp and also have folder embossed it with some 'small dots'.  The inside 'decorative shapes' have been cut with the Tim Holtz Movers&Shakers Magnetic die {I printed the sentiments off my computer first}.  The adorable stroller is another Unity Stamp {an itty bitty}.

I hope your day is wonderfully creative!

Busy, Busy, Busy

There is always something.  Shannon, one of my best friends, is getting married this coming October! And, since she is not a 'planner', has given me the wonderful task {and I am NOT being sarcastic} of planning her Wedding! I LOVE planning a party...or anything actually that requires a list. So, I have been busy working on a few items to be used at the wedding, right now it has been {100} tiny envelopes...tracing, {hand-cutting}, scoring, folding, taping...and tying into bundles of ten.  These envelopes will be at the 'sign-in table' and will act as the Guest Book.  Wedding Guests will write words of wisdom, advice or love on small tags, which will then be placed inside the envelopes {mounted in a beautiful book}.

{ordered from MoonScape on Etsy}

The tags {which are not pictured} are being cut from the Cricut.  {So far that is working out well... I am starting to like our Cricut...thank goodness!}  I am also cutting 'blurb' tags, these will be mounted in the book, along with a picture of the people who have written the comment.  {Grandparents, Parents, Siblings, etc...}  The number two, pictured above, is what the table numbers are going to look like.  They were quite simple to make, some paper, a frame from the dollar store, a house number and a little paint!

So far, so good...I think.  Plus, I get to make 'extra trips' to The Paper Pickle for supplies!

Have a GREAT Day!

"Winner, Winner" AND 'Then Sings My Soul' Hymn Challenge!

Well, the time has come to announce the WINNER of my {on-going}, but now finished GIVEAWAY!  And the {lucky} WINNER is... {reaching into a large bowl full of 'ballets'}:

#27 Danielle Higginbottom-Brown!

Congratulations Danielle and thank you to all for participating!

Now for a {little} project...

"How Great Thou Art"

{one more shot}

This is my 'layout' for the {bi}weekly Hymn&Scripture Challenge over at Triple the Scraps {HSCRC12}.  I have to say that I had a hard time coming up with an idea for this {powerful} hymn.  The words stand quite well on their own...so that is what I did, let the {hymns} words speak for themselves.  I was inspired by Patter's colour choice and just rolled with it.  I have added a quote from the song 'How Great Is Our God' by Chris Tomlin,  I LOVE relating the older hymns to new songs! The scripture I have chosen is a paraphrase of Genesis 1:24-31, which is, "And God said...and it was so". {Enough said...} 

Thanks for stopping in!

Jazz.
