Art Impressions Sheep Flutter Set

Art Impressions Sheep Flutter Set

Having lived on a farm as a young tot, I recall when many animals had their babies such as lambs, calves, chicks, colts, and piglets.  Some newborn sheep start jumping around shortly after birth.  That is reflected on my card that features the new Art Impressions Sheep Flutter Set, a jumping ewe sheep.  This little ewe is so cute and very happy.  Her legs jump up and down when you pull the tab as she tells you she loves you to the moon!


Colossians 3:12-14

“Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.  Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have against one another.  Forgive as the Lord forgave you.  And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.”

Art Impressions Dogs, Flowers, and Rustic Container

Art Impressions Dogs, Flowers, and Rustic Container

Hello, and welcome!  So happy that you stopped by.  Today I am sharing a card made with Art Impressions Dogs, Flowers, and Rustic Container stamps.  I love this time of the year when I can fill rustic or wooden containers with soil and flowers.  I actually have two 5′ long palm tree log containers that I cut out the centers so I could plant flowers in them during springtime.  Thinking that I need to fulfill that task brought to mind the subjects for my card –  flowers and a puppy in a rustic container.  Water coloring is not a skill of mine; however, I decided to give it a try.


1 Corinthians 3:11-15

“For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.  If any man builds on this foundation using gold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, his work will be shown for what it is, because the Day will bring it to light.  It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will test the quality of each man’s work.  If what he has built survives, he will receive his reward.  If it is burned up, he will suffer loss (of a reward; he himself will be saved, but only as one escaping through the flames.”

Hero Arts MMH Kit May 2018

Hero Arts MMH Kit May 2018

Hello!  I am just sharing a card I made in May, and it features the Hero Arts MMH Kit May 2018.  The kit is wonderful as it is about young children and their swings, bikes, kites, and animals.  The kit is called “Tree of Life” because the primary products are related to trees.  I used the kit to create this card.


Revelation 3:8-10

I know your deeds.  See, I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut.  I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.  I will make those who are of the synagogue of Satan, who claim to be Jews though they are not, but are liars — I will make them come and fall down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you.  Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come upon the whole world to test those who live on the earth.”

Altenew Beautiful Day

Altenew Beautiful Day

Flowers!!  Beautiful flowers come to my mind when springtime arrives.  It is a time when perennial plants emerge from the ground, grow, and bloom into beautiful flowers.  Thinking of this, my first card for the Dirty Dozen’s March monthly theme was to include flowers.  The card features the Aletnew Beautiful Day Stamp Set, and I could not release it until I finished my time as a Dirty Girl!


Ephesians 2:11-13

“Therefore, remember you who are Gentiles by birth and called “uncircumcised” by those who call themselves “the circumcision” (that done in the body by the hands of men) – remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Isreal and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world.  But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ.”

Romans 12:3

“For by the grace given me I say to every one of you:  Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you.”
