Summer Crush Coming to an End

 Making Cards with My Crush

My Crush books are more than a place to keep your memories.

They can be used for cards, a unique scrapbook page, 

a shadow box, a daily prayer journal, etc. I've been using mine

for  Bible Journaling my favorite Bible verses. The uses are many.

I used the pages from My Crush In The Pink and

the sketch below from Mojo Monday to make this card.

Mojo Monday sketches are posted each Monday for inspiration

in card making. Give it a try. Also, there are three days left to

get your own My Crush book and your free stamp set.

Waiting Upon the Lord

with My Crush book.

In case you missed my first post about my bible journaling you can see it here.

This page is dedicated to the people of Charleston

Mounting up with wings as eagles is a great comfort in these times of trouble. I was holding the people of Charleston in my heart praying for them as they are waiting upon the Lord. Their testimony of strength can renew this nation as we follow their example of the Lord's grace.

A Little Late to the Party

But...Better Late Than Never

Close to my Heart has a special this month with the My Crush

books and their accompanying assortment. When these cute

books first came out I got the Bluebird book and the assortments.

However....I was not inspired to use it until I was inspired by

Katy's Bible Journaling and her great use of words and stamps.

So, this is my first attempt at journaling one of my

favorite Bible verses: "The Word is a lamp unto 

my feet and a light unto my path." I'm going to

try to journal one verse a week and make 

the verse my weekly Bible study. 

 "Happy" was the word study this week.

More verses coming your way as I journal each week.

Now, I usually don't write so much in one post but I wanted to share

with you this fun way of journaling. It can be addicting. If you would

like to start your Bible Journaling you can order any one of four

My Crush books this month. These books are available while supplies last. 

Once they are gone they are gone for good. You still have a few days to

order one. You can phone or e-mail me your order or you can order

from my Online Business Account.

Thank you for visiting my blog today and may God bless you richly each day as you walk with Him.

After making my challenge cards and while cleaning up the mess it

just came to me...I should use these scraps to make more cards.

Are we watching the road with the binoculars to see "Are we there yet?" 

 Road trips are so much more fun with binoculars.

Oh boy, travel does the heart good. So, here we go.

So don't trash your scraps when you can make just one more card.

Artbooking Meets the Party Colors

Artbooking Fun with Color My Heart 

Gypsy, Pacifica, Topiary, Honey, Sunset and Desert Sand

These colors at Color My Heart this week gave me the "party" colors to make 

some fun birthday cards and an Artbooking PML scrapbook page.

Using the overlay on page 64 cut at 3 inches made the

circles and stars just perfect to fill in with colorful paper

Fundamentals for this birthday card. This idea was inspired

by the sample artwork for future August SOTM 

 Using the Artbooking font these letters were cut using paper

 Fundamentals and then punched with circle punch for "happy" 

 Artbooking Made Easy,  looks at how to use the Picture My Life scrapbooking 

program to create a fun layout. Choose your photos, insert in the desired 

section of the page protector and design your PML sections using Artbooking.

Now It's your turn to share with us at Color My Heart.
