Hello on this glorious Sunday......

my stamping friends!!!   I have some exciting news to share with you all. I was contacted by Lisa Hjulberg and she asked me if I would join the Stampin' Sisters In Christ Challenge and I've said yes!!  I am excited to get the opportunity to spread God's word just a little more now. Also returning to SSIC is Kristine, one of the challenge's creators is returning after a break (WooHoo!!!!)... and MariLynn are also joining!


So today I am excited to be sharing a card with you that I made for this weeks inspiration written by Chris Olsen, one of my dear friends whom I also have the pleasure working with over at ODBD!!



She has chosen
Isaiah 40:8 for today's Scripture.

The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God shall stand for ever.

Her challenge is:

Use a stamped flower image on your creation...
dp, embossing or paper flowers do not count as a stamped flower
Please read Chris' complete devotional thoughts on this great passage on the SSIC Blog!



Here is what I came up with when I read Chris's challenge:












Recipe:  PTI  Vintage Cream, Ripe Avocado, K&Company Sunsan Winget Nature DP

Stamps: ODBD The Lord has Risen,   Happy Easter

Ink: Memento Tuxedo Black, Tim Holtz Distressing Ink Antique Linen, Old Paper

Accessories: Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels 3 and 5, Offray cotton crochet lace, hand dyed seam binding, handmade stick pin, green glass beads, antique brass spacer beads, Zva Creative small pearl flourishes, Copics to color in the daffodil

 This weeks sponsor is Clear Dollar Stamps   and  you have the chance of winning a $ 15 gift certificate.

Congratulations, Sabrina!! I can't think of another person who more beautifully shares God's love and creative love. I'm ashamed to say I'm still hoarding those pretty scrolled pearls you sent me a while ago...
