Scripture Challenge - Listen

I did my next Scripture challenge layout today. This word is so important! We have to open up our ears...and our hearts...to hear what the Lord is telling us everyday. We may not always realize at first that He's actually telling us something, but if we pay close attention and catch those moments, we will be even more blessed. That's a great feeling, isn't it?? :)

*Inspired by Shanna Vineyard's "Lucky Me Grateful" journal seen here

I did more sewing on this layout and it was great! It's so much fun trying something new and actually having it work out the way you want it to. My next try will be on a 12x12 page...wish me luck, lol! ;)

Scripture Challenge - Live

I got another layout for my Scripture challenge done on Saturday night. I had so much fun with it!! My totally AWESOME sister bought me a sewing machine a few months ago and I've wanted to try using it on some paper, so I did and I really love how it looks! It adds such a nice touch to the page...



When I was looking for a verse for the word live, I read this one and knew it was a perfect fit. Christ lives IN ME! Isn't that just amazing to know?? :)

Catch me if you can!

Ok, here's the layout I did for myself with the same paper I used on Cathy's layout below, but it's a totally different look. I love how much you can change things up by tearing papers or cutting them...



This picture is of the girls running home from the bus stop. It's so funny that they always race to the house and try to catch each other on the way, lol! A perfect memory to scrap, right? :)

My Dadee & Me

I got another layout for Cathy's album done over the weekend. This is her hubby Adam and their youngest daughter Abbey, sharing some hugs and kisses. Are they cute or what?? :)


*Based on a May 2007 sketch at Page Maps

The patterned paper I used is from the SEI Dill Blossom collection, which I just ADORE. It's the pack I told you about before that I liked so much, I bought one for Cathy and another one for myself. ;) I actually did a layout with the same paper that day for me too, lol! I'll be posting that one next...
