Birthday Gift Bag

Hello all you fabulous paper artist in blogland!

Act Now

The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon Me, because He

 has anointed Me [the Anointed One, the Messiah] to

preach the good news (the Gospel) to the poor;

He has sent Me to announce release to the captives

 and recovery of sight to the blind, to send forth as

delivered those who are oppressed [who are downtrodden,

bruised, crushed, and broken down by calamity].

                                                                           Luke 4:18

Write the Vision

Where there is no vision [on redemptive revelation 

of God], the people perish; but he who keeps the law

[of God, which includes that of man] -- blessed

(happy, fortunate, and enviable) is he.

Vines And Blooms

Hello all you fabulous paper crafters in blogland!

Balance Discipline

And I will walk liberty and at ease, for I have 

sought and inquired for [and desperately

required] Your precepts.

                                 PSALM 119:45

I have another card here that was created for Heartfelt Creations. Love how everything came together so nicely on this card. I was torn on putting a bow at the base of the plant. I made a bow and layed it on the card, then I removed it, it was back and forth, bow on, bow off, and the more I looked at it with the bow on, thought it was taking away from the card. So here we are, a nice clean card.

Bird On A Branch

Hello all you fabulous paper crafters in blogland!

Words Are Power

Exercise foresight and be on the watch to look

[after one another], to see that no one falls back from 

and fails to secure God's grace (His unmerited favor

and spiritual blessings), in order that no root of 

resentment (rancor, bitterness, or hatred) shoots forth

 and causes trouble and bitter torment, and the many

 become contaminated and defiled by it. 

                                                                        HEBREWS 12:15

I hope everyone had a beautiful weekend and enjoyed the wonderful weather we've been having!? I had a few extra days to play in my craft room this last week, it was wonderful and it worked out perfect because I got to looking over my calender and noticed there are six birthdays this month, so I was working on some birthday cards. I also did some rearranging and organizing. Now I'm ready to start back up on my next project and create another mess. LOL   
 Bet you knew this card was created for Heartfelt Creations!
