The LORD is My Strength

Our dear friend Tiffany Johnson put out a request for cards for her mother-in-law. Her MIL has cancer that has spread beyond the help of chemotherapy. She has been discharged from hospice to spend the rest of her days at home. It is obvious to me through Tiffany's words that her MIL is a very special lady. I created this card for her using Taylor VanBruggen's TECC62 sketch. I used this verse from the Something Within set from Unity.

I know that death is not the end... We are created for so much more than this life here on earth. With Easter upon us, this is an appropriate time to meditate on these things in our own lives!!

See THIS POST if you'd like to also send a card to Tiff's MIL!

Stamps: Something Within (Unity). Paper: Basic Grey Urban Prairie, So Saffron, Cool Caribbean, Very Vanilla. Ink: Regal Rose, Cool Caribbean. Accessories: Soft Pink Rhinestone, Pop It! Circles.

Good morning! It's the 6th of the month, and you know what that means.... it's time for a Six Chicks big project challenge! This month, Limelight Celebrates Earth Day! Earth Day will be right around the corner (and Arbor Day, too), so I challenged the troops to go GREEN! They were asked to make a project using recycled packaging, stamp some trees (we have LOTS at Limelight), make a seed packet pouch... Whatever! I hope you enjoy their wonderful projects:

Six Chicks Sketch #18

Metallic elements can really spruce up a card! Brads, inks, rhinestones, or hardware...bring it ALL out for this week's Sketch and Product Challenge!

Happy Thursday, everyone! I am sorry I've been gone for a while. I have had a pretty bad flare-up of my Crohn's Disease, and I have gotten a little behind!! Of course, taken care of our customer's orders is first priority, so the blog has taken the backseat a little bit. ;) But I am better, and I am back!

For my card, I have created a card base with two pieces of 5 1/2" circle cardstock by Waste Not Paper. The color is Pool...isn't it pretty? (These are on clearance at Limelight for 20 CENTS apiece!!) I layered on my *favorite* Basic Grey Urban Prairie for some color and design, and I added a stamped image from Unity Stamp Company's Something Within stamp set. I accented with a Kiwi Kiss photo corner, some Silver Kaisercraft Rhinestones, and... the piece de resistance... a Prima BUTTERFLY!! Isn't it GORGEOUS?? I just love those little butterflies. They really make a project special. The rhinestones and butterfly, which contains wire and rhinestones, counts for my metallics! I moved my embellishment to the top so that it would fit, but you can see below that the original sketch calls for it to be in the lower left. :)


Here are the details:
**Use the sketch provided along with anything METALLIC!
**Key word for SCS upload is LLPC018.
**Post a comment with a link to your card here on this post by Sunday, April 5, at midnight (or before winner is drawn Monday a.m.).
**PRIZE ~ One 6x6 or 8x8 paper pad of the winner's choice! Winner is chosen randomly!
**Hope that YOU will play along!! :)

April 7th Six Chick Revealed!

We'd like to give a warm welcome to our April 7th Six Chick (our guest designer), Rebekka Reed! When I came across her blog, I was stunned to find that she is a new stamper!! Her creations are gorgeous.... GORGEOUS! We are blessed to have her join us for this month! Please welcome Rebekka, and be sure to visit her blog at http://diamondintherough24.blogspot.com/

A bit about Rebekka:

I am a born again Christian; have been saved since 1975 and still marching strong :). I work full time at a job I love and have been at for over 25 years. I know, I am blessed. I got into card making a little less then a year ago, I use to do computer generated cards, came across Splitcoast, and got hooked on stamps :). This is my only hobby out side of studying the word of God. I am single (divorced) have 7 son's, 6 are in glory and one is here with me, he is 32 years old not married, a military career man, getting ready to work on his master's. I pray God will bring him a wife and some grand children :).
