Be Joyful

Rejoice in the Lord always. Again I will say, rejoice! Let your gentleness be known to all men. The Lord is at hand. Be anxious for nothing, but in EVERYTHING by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the PEACE OF GOD, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:4-7

These are verses I memorized years ago and they are written on my heart. There are times when I still need to remember not to be anxious, but I eventually listen to my heart saying these verses. I didn't really understand what the "peace of God" was until I experienced it. It's having peace inside you, even when you're going through heartbreaking situations and trials. It does "surpass ALL understanding" and you know it comes from GOD alone. Praise the Lord for His wonderful promises!


I love, love, love what I do. I am passionate about the things I create and the talents God has placed in me. I SO appreciate the time you take to look at my things and the comments you all leave me!

Blessings to you!

Blue Wild Flora


Happy Sunday!

I’m back again with another card that I did using a new set I purchase from Altenew called Wild Flora.  I had fun coloring this image with my Prismacolor pencils.  I usually use gamsol and paper stumps, but this time I just did a burnishing technique with the pencils.  I did one in bright blues that I’ll post at a later time and this one with muted blues and brown for a challenge they have at Altenew for January here.




Here is my take on the challenge.


Sorry, the quality of my photos isn’t the best.  This card looks much nicer in real life!

Here are the products I used:

Stamps: Wild Flora (Altenew), Short & Sweet (Stampin Up)
Ink: Onyx Black (VersaFine)
Paper: Solar White (Neenah), Kraft (Recollections), Bordering Blue (Stampin Up)
Accessories: Guilt Trip Mini Prills, glue, Platimun Liquid Pearls (Ranger), Large Oval, Scalloped Oval punches (Stampin Up), half back pearls, Bow-Easy Tool, Danish Blue seam binding, Prismacolor Pencils: Periwinkle, Mediterranean Blue, Limepeel, Olive Green, Dark Green, Ginger Root, Cool Grey 50%, Black (no mineral spirits used)

Hope you enjoyed my project today and you have a wonderful Sunday!

Blessings!
