Hero Arts Color Layering Poinsettia Christmas Card

Hero Arts Color Layering Poinsettia Christmas Card

Happy Christmas Eve, my friends!  Do you have your gifts wrapped and goodies baked to be ready for tomorrow!  I commend you if you are ready as I have not wrapped the first gift.  Guess what I will do today!  But before I begin wrapping gifts, I wanted to share my last Christmas card for this year.  The card features Hero Arts Color Layering Poinsettia stamp set bundle.


Matthew 1:18-25  – The Birth of Jesus Christ

18: “This is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about:  His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be with child through the Holy Spirit.
19:  Because Joseph her husband was a righteous man and did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.
20:  But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
21:  She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.”
22.  All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:
23.  “The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” — which means, “God with us.”
24.  When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife.
25.  But he had no union with her until she gave birth to a son.  And he gave him the name Jesus.”

Julee Tilman’s MOJO Monday Challenge 502

Hi, friends!  I am excited that the MOJO Monday Challenges have re-launched recently.  Julee Tilman’s MOJO Monday Challenge 502 is a great sketch and I used it to create the following card.

This is a copy of Julee’s great sketch:


2 Corinthians 12:7-9

Regarding Paul’s thorn, he said, “To keep me from becoming conceited because of these surpassingly great revelations, there was given me a thorn in my flesh, a messenger of Satan, to torment me.  Three times I pleaded with the Lord to take it away from me.  But he said to me, “my grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”  Therefore, I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.”

How to Assemble Art Impressions Santa Flutter Set

How to Assemble Art Impressions Santa Flutter Set

Have you purchased any of the new Art Impressions Flutter Stamp and Die sets?  They can be difficult to assemble.  I think that the Art Impressions Santa Flutter Set recently released is more difficult than the ones I used from the Art Impressions spring 2018 release.  I struggled with the Santa Flutter and decided to provide a tutorial on how to assemble the Art Impressions Santa Flutter Set.

I submitted this card today for a color challenge on Splitcoaststampers.


Matthew 7:1-5

Jesus said, “Do not judge, or you too will be judged.  For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.  Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye?  How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye?  You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye.”

Ellen Hutson Courage – Breast Cancer Awareness

ELLEN HUTSON COURAGE – BREAST CANCER AWARENESS

I could not let October end without creating a Breast Cancer Awareness card.  For the card, I used the Ellen Hutson Courage Stamp and Die set, which was made especially to benefit breast cancer research.  Twenty-five dollars of each purchase of the stamp set will be sent to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation.  Being a breast cancer survivor, I was happy to contribute to the Foundation through my purchase.  Here is my card.


1 Corinthians 12:4-9

“There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit.  There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord.  There are different kinds of working, but the same God works all of them in all men.  Now to each one the manifestation of the Spirit is given for the common good.  To one there is given through the Spirit the message of wisdom, to another the message of knowledge by means of the same spirit, to another faith by the same Spirit, to another gifts of healing by that one Spirit…”

John 17:1-5 (Jesus Prays for Himself)

“After Jesus said this, he looked toward heaven and prayed: “Father, the time has come.  Glorify your Son, that your Son may glorify you.  For you granted him authority over all people that he might give eternal life to all those you have given him.  Now this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.  I have brought you glory on earth by completing the work you gave me to do.  And now, Father, glorify me in your presence with the glory I had with you before the world began.”
