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!

Blushing Rose Background


Happy Wednesday!

This week I have a card made with the Blushing Rose Background image from Heartfelt Creations' Blushing Rose Collection that was released last week.





I stamped the image, colored it with pencils and mineral spirits, then trimmed it down to fit nicely on the card. The "Beautiful" banner portion of the image was stamped a second time, colored with pencils and die cut with the matching die from the Blushing Rose Swirls Die. I then popped it on the card over the original image.

Be sure to visit the Heartfelt Creations' Blog to see all the beauties by the designers with week!

I'm submitting this to the following challenges:

Word Art Wednesday #252-253 - Anything Goes
Just Keep On Creating - October - Anything Goes

Thanks so much for stopping by to visit!

Blessings!
