Birds And Blooms Sympathy

Hello all you fabulous paper crafters in blogland!

Balance Life

Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) is the man

whom You discipline and instruct, O Lord, and teach

out of Your law, that You may give him power to 

keep himself calm in the days of adversity.

                                                            PSALM 94:12 - 13

Sunday evening already, wow were did the weekend go! Just finished giving my little Yorkie girl a bath and brushed her teeth. I just started brushing her teeth about a month ago and its going pretty good. Using chicken favored tooth paste sure doesn't hurt. LOL  

Onward with another card that I created for Heartfelt Creations. This card could be used for almost anything, and in this months collection there are many different sentiments that could be used on this card.

Next, cut a piece of pattern paper 1 3/4" x 4" and adhere to the bottom, set aside will come back to it. Stamp image on a piece of white scrap paper, cut out using the medium cut mat die from set 2-A, color and set it aside. Now with these 2 dies, create an olive green frame for the window and adhere. Now stamp sentiment, add ribbon and bow. Now with that colored image, lay loosely on card base, this gives you an idea on placement when you place the top layer over it. Once all configured, adhere image and add pop dots to layered mat.

Hello all you fabulous paper crafters in blogland!

God Works While You Rest

Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the

[action of His] power that is at work within us, is

able to [carry out His purpose and] do super -

abundantly, far over and above all that we [dare]

 ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers,

desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams].

                                                                EPHESIANS 3:20

Happy Sunday everybody! Another day of creating something wonderful. Making cards is my all time favorite past time besides spending time with my family and my dogs. My little Yorkie girl thinks that every time her daddy comes in the door from work, it's play time. She runs to her play box and grabs out a toy and throws it at his feet, then after he tosses it few times she drops the toy at my feet. She'll stand there and look at you until you throw it. She's very patient, after about 2 minutes and nothing happens then she'll rub her eyes with her paws like shes crying. Sometimes I wish I would have never had taught her to cry. She uses that crying thing on me all the time, and it makes me smile and gets my attention all at the same time. What would we do without out pets?! 

Yes, I know I'm late getting my Heartfelt Creations posted once again. I loose track of time with my jobs. I work part time and my schedule is all wacky. Never know when I'm coming or going. My husband would tell you, that's just my nature!
