Hail the Grill Master!
Happy Tuesday everybody! Today is Sketch Tuesday at Christian Paper Crafts and Gloria always comes up with the most awesome, stretch your imagination, and out of the box sketches. We are so blessed to have her! I've done about 10 spring cards and now I'm done with those and am ready for summer! Yesterday it was 75. Today it is 65 and raining, and my shoulders knew that yesterday. I am not going to complain because at least it's not snowing and 40.
I made this card just to make it. I used the color combination of Pacific Point, Groovy Guava, and Certainly Celery, which is a combination that I have never used before and think that it turned out pretty cool. It's a great masculine card. So, why don't you join us today for this challenge and show us what you can do. We always look forward to seeing your creations! Thank you for stopping by and God bless. Today's Treasure: 1 Timothy 2.

This card covers the triple challenges of Christian Paper Crafts Color Monday 47, Splitcoast Stampers Clean and Simple Challenge 57, and the Technique Lover's Challenge 263. This is a little bit different for me as it was 75 degrees outside and I wanted outside too! I let the designer paper and a few embellishments do the work for me. What do you think? I hope you like it and thank you for stopping by! God bless.

Happy Spring
Spring is on its way! It's getting to be in the 60s here and I'm so ready for this. Today I'm going to do a little garden cleanup, but before that, I'm going to share with you this cute little Happy Spring card that I made for CAS Case Artist Saturday at Christian Paper Crafts where Ms. Candylou was featured. She has an adorable gallery. I used her Football Birthday Card as my inspiration for my CASE (copy and share everything). I think it turned out real cute and is the perfect kids card. What do you think? Be sure to play along with us today and just have some fun! God bless!
January Crocus and an Interview
It's been a long week, which is why I haven't posted much or have had any new projects to share with you. I've been working on or recreating 19 cards that are getting published in the upcoming months. What an honor and privilege! I am so blessed. I also want to share with you that I'm the Guest Designer at Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenges today. I love the group of ladies over there. They are very special. A new challenge is presented every Sunday and it's one that I always make sure I participate in.
Today I'm going to share with you a mini card that I made for two challenges at Splitcoast Stampers on Monday and combined them of the Technique Lover's Challenge (faux Nestabilities) and Clean and Simple Challenge (It's Hip to be Square). I've been hooked on Flourishes Stamps lately and they have three newly released A Year in Flowers that I'm playing with right now. Earlier this week, I shared with you my March Pansy mini card and now I'm going to show you my January Crocus card. I've also been on this water coloring kick lately too, so this card was done using the watercolor technique.
Thank you for stopping by and have a very blessed day. I've been in Psalms a lot and Today's Treasure is reading Psalms 50-59. I love them all. God bless.

March Pansy
I had to make another card today because Christian Paper Crafts is sponsoring the Stampin' Sister's in Christ Challenge (SSCC) today! I love playing every Sunday at SSCC and I invite and encourage you to play along as well! Be sure to visit SSCC on Thursday this week as I'm also guest designing as well. What an honor that is! This card also covers two more challenges of Christian Paper Crafts Color Monday challenge of yellow, white/cream, and one other color (I had to have green stems!) and Splitcoast Stampers Clean and Simple challenge to make a square card. To play along with the SSCC challenge, I thought about how God gave me this gift of art and also his gift of spring, which we all hope is right around the corner. This is a mini note card made with Flourishes Calendar Set #1. There are 3 sets to the series, each featuring a different month of flowers and their names for the sentiment. Thank you for looking and God bless!
Inspired Butterflies
Our own Angella Crockett, one of my design team members for Christian Paper Crafts, is the Featured Stamper today at Splitcoast Stampers! Congrats girl and I'm so sorry for waking you up at 11:15 p.m. to let you know — not really, ha ha 
. I chose Angella's The Flowers Appear card and made my Inspired Butterflies card. I loved how she did her butterflies and wanted to do the same with my card. You have to look at Angella's gallery! It rocks and so does she. Congrats my dear friend!
