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!

Cream & Kraft Flower Garden


Happy Sunday!

I’m back again with a card I made yesterday using Kraft paper and heat embossed with white embossing powder.  I wanted to try coloring on Kraft paper using a new stamp set I bought from Altenew called Flower Garden.  I love this set as it has so many options for flowers and leaves.  It also has matching dies which I didn’t use on this card, but can’t wait to try them.




I stamped the same image in opposite corners and colored them with white Prismacolor pencil, no mineral spirits again.  I added some cream flat back pearls to the flower centers and delicate Bisque Liquid Pearls dots around the images.

The sentiment is from another new stamp set I bought from Stampin Up called Go To Greetings that I stamped with Soft Suede.  I was looking for a basic sentiment set for cards and I think this one is perfect.  Perfect name as I’ll be using this set a lot for my “go to” greetings.

I also stamped the inside of the card with another image from the Flower Garden set.



Thanks for looking, hope you enjoy my newest creation!  I do have a lot of new things I’ve created, but I’m having difficulty getting them to look good in the photos.  (Today’s card was taken with my cell phone and edited on my cell phone, first time doing that!)  I’ve also been working on quite a few 6x6 one sheet wonders card sets that I can’t wait to show you!  I love doing one sheet wonders!
