•Happy Birthday, Sis! & a challenge.....

FIRST OFF! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BEAUTIFUL OLDER SIS, TARA! I tried finding a pic of the both of us, but couldn't? So here is a pic of my beautiful sis on her wedding day last summer.


2ND - I got waaaaay behind (like by 5 weeks!) on my His Holy Name Challenges and the Scripture challenges. Remember those? :) So here is my week 2 creation. I used the Dream a Little Dream Kit from Faith Sisters.


So that is it for right now. :) I have kind of a busy, "faithful" day. I say faithful b/c I'm doing a lot of catching up on these challenges, my bible studies , and starting a book by Victoria Osteen, "Love Your Life." I'm excited! Toodles!

• It's ketchup time! :)

Oh....I mean CATCH UP! :D I've been stamping and I've been doing digital stuff. I just haven't posted! So bear with me as I show a few things!

Digi "Stuff" Used:
Paper: DSB Girls Night Out, Christmas in July
Accessories: DSB Christmas in July

This is a digi page I did for the first His Holy Name Challenge, put on by Patter Cross. The word was "holy." How appropriate! :D I decided to participate in these challenges because I am trying to build my relationship with Jesus Christ and become closer to my Saviour. Plus these challenges are going to get me to study my bible more and understand it a lot more. Patter is so inspiring when it comes to her relationship with Jesus and I want to be able to inspire people one day as well. First, I just need to work on getting building my relationship with Him. :D

With that being said, here is Patter's Scripture Challenge for week 1.

Digi "stuff" used: Digi Scrap Boutiqe "Summer" Kit

You know, it's amazing the way Jesus Christ is. Over the past year or so, I had done some really stupid things and some other things happened where I was really beginning to question my faith in Jesus Christ. When Patter first announced when the challenges were beginning, I immediately knew I was going to do the His Holy Name Challenge. I figured the scripture challenge could wait.......UNTIL Jesus told me to peek at the Scripture challenge. The word was "faith." To tell you the truth, I almost wanted to cry because this challenge was so perfect for me! I am sooo glad Jesus Christ told Patter she needed to start with "faith" and I am sooo glad he told me to take a peek! Just in the last week, I tell you, my faith has grown to be 10 x stronger! I am soo excited to keep going with these challenges and understand the Bible and Jesus a lot better!

So onto real life stamping........

This is a card I did for Amber's Sketch Challenge in the Unity forum. I think this was #7, but it was a while ago and I actually did this the same week, I just haven't posted! :D


And here's a card I did, but hate. For a Bella Sketch Challenge on SCS. Once again, I'm not sure what number as it was a long time ago, but I'm wanting to say it was #59. I just love Stella with an Olive on Top. She is too cute. The sketch didn't turn out the way I wanted, so I was gonna re-do, but never got that far! And now I'm behind 3 challenges! :D

This card I done for the Bella Color Challenge last week. The challenge was to use pink, pink, and more pink! I LOVED this challenge as I LOVE pink! :D Once again the card didnt turn out the way I wanted it to, but I have no time to redo! :D


This card I did, yesterday for the My Favorite Things Guest Desinger Challenge. The challenge was to do a one layer card. This was pretty hard for me to grasp as I HAVE to have layers!:D I think I'm gonna go buy that boot, though! I love boots!
