It's Your Birthday and Cool Sized Paper



I love the 6 X 12 " paper I found at Michaels.

Scripture Bouquet




I've created a Scripture Bouquet using a fun file in the Silhouette Cameo store.


I simply removed the coupon text, and stamped each pot with a verse.







 I scored the last pot to allow it to brace the gift.






 ODBDSLC153:Spring Word Recipe Challenge

S-Scripture
P-Paper
R-red ink
G-Garden Flowers



The free verse this week is Proverbs 31:10.


This gift will be given to my friend who creates beautiful bouquets.


She is truly a virtuous woman who lays her life down for Christ in a mighty way.


Her sacrificial care, right now, of an elderly grandmother is amazing to me.


It is the ultimate show of Jesus' love.


I am also submitting this to the Gift Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.



Have a blessed day, friends!

Splash Challenge with a Balloon and Sequins



Give me a splash challenge and I'm IN!!!









~I love any splash of color with B&W~






As I've mentioned once...I have zero desire to ride a balloon~but I think it's FABULOUS that I have friends who have experienced it. ;)


Kudos to their bravery!

It is warm enough to play outside~YAYYYYY, it's about time!!!

Should I start complaining about bugs and heat, y'all remind me of the cold,blustery winter we had.


That ought to snap me back to gratefulness. ;)
