Winter Window

Hi, everyone! Today I am taking my last vacation day of the year and I am celebrating by creating a "just because" card.  Most everything I create is either for my HUGE personal birthday list or for design team commitments, but today I'm playing just for fun in the Ways To Use It Challenge over at Splitcoast which is all about windows.  I have used the following items from Our Daily Bread designs for my window card:  'Warm Wishes' set (snowman scene), ODBD Custom Window Die, ODBD Custom Curtains and Valance Dies, the pre-printed sentiment and designer paper 'wallpaper' are from the ODBD Christmas Card Collection 2016, and the other dies used are the ODBD Custom Double Stitched Rectangles Dies, ODBD Stitched Ovals Dies, and ODBD Custom Ovals Dies.

 
Thanks for stopping by!

Blessings,

Bible Verse Thursday: Sing To The Lord!!!!!

Happy Thursday, everyone!! It's time for the Bible Verse Thursday Challenge over at Christian Paper Crafts. This week's theme is all about singing....to the Lord, that is! There are very few people I know who are NOT moved by some type of music. The more I listen to contemporary Christian music and the more I read in my Bible about singing to the Lord, the more I think about how afraid most people are to express themselves and just let it all go for Him......not caring who is watching or how you look.....or how you sound! So, why don't you give it a try? Throw your hands in the air and dance and sing your heart out!!! It's amazing how good it feels to the soul to just forget about everything and focus on God's love!!!!

Okay, I'm back down to earth now!! :) So, the challenge for today is to focus your card, layout, or project on "Singing To The Lord"......I can't wait to see where this takes you!!! (And if you're like me, you'll do some singing while working on your project!!)

For my card this week, I used Alisa's Sketch Tuesday Challenge and Heather's Color Monday Challenge, to use Banana, Celery, and Cocoa. When I saw the sketch, I instantly thought of making windows.....the Basic Grey "Nook and Pantry" paper punched with the Martha Stuart Doily Lace Border Punch made the perfect valance, while "Sing To The Lord" by Our Daily Bread designs was the perfect set for the scene PLUS the verse!!! Finished it off with some cocoa ribbon and Zva pearls.

Make sure you come back first thing Friday morning.....we will be revealing this month's sponsor over at Christian Paper Crafts....very exciting!!! We will be having a blog hop with prizes, and wait until you see the projects our DT has been working on!!!!

Thanks for stopping by! Have a blessed day!!
