Raining Hearts

I am posting my cards from last week late - last week and weekend was so busy that I never had time to post anything (or catch up on blog visits - I promise I will be by soon and catch up).  Hope you have had some time to relax soon and are not like me!
 
This card was made for the Outlawz Paper A La Mode Challenge.  The Challenge is still running and is Anything Goes with a twist.  The twist is you have to use at least two mediums.  My mediums are SU! Reinker, colored pencil and Stickles. 
 
 
 
Our sponsor is A Day for Daisies and they were sweet enough to provide me with this adorable image called Elephant Raining Love.  I made this card with the image and computer generated my sentiment.  I also made a matching Bible Journaling Page with it too - I will post that tonight when I get home.
 
I made my bg using acetate smooshing and some SU! Pixie Pink Reinker.  I colored my image with Water Color Pencils and my finger (finger painting with water and pencil is so fun). 
 
I am just about done with my Valentine's Cards - now it is time for St Pat's Day and Easter!
 
Remember Love is Raining Down on you every minute of every day - just stop and feel it!
John 3:16; Romans 5:5, etc.

Language Plays, Billiard Balls, and Some "Interesting" Wine

 I always look forward to the new **Art*Journal*Journey* Theme each month. The May theme was chosen by Elle and she chose Language as the theme. So many cool things you can do with that theme.  This weekend I chose to do the Language(s) of God in my Journaling Bible.  When I started, I was going to do Fasting as a way of speaking to God but after listening to a Sermon on Fasting, I realized that was more complicated and I would have to study it more first. So I switched gears midstream and just did some of ways that God speaks to us and vice versa.  There are many more, but I put the ones I could think of quickly here.   The papers are from an old hymnal and Close to My Heart (CTMH).  The gnome is CTMH as well.  Now I have played with all the gnomes in the set,and I totally love them. While looking for the hymnal paper, I ran across an old song book that I was saving.  It was damaged so I knew it would have to be recycled into something....

Some Penguins

Today kicks off the newest Pattie's Creations Challenge which is Tags . Just Tags. No cards with Tags on or in them - just tags. I love to make just tags so this one was right up my alley. I used the super cute Penguin image from Pattie's Creations, but I couldn't stop at just one so I made a little penguin family. My tag is made from an old cardboard box top which I peeled down, painted, distressed a bit, and then added some snow medium. My bow is actually a new bow designed by Pamela Lehto (available at Squigglefly tomorrow). Please join us in the Pattie's Creations Tag Challenge - there are lovely DT tags for inspiration and Pattie gives away wonderful prizes! Hugz!

Stamps, Books, Found Relatives, and More Food

 Don't you love getting new stuff?  This is my fun new stuff from  Red Lead Paperworks .   I ordered the fun vintage looking deer stamp and the three Christmas greetings - all were on sale a few weeks ago.  I love getting their packages because they always send some extra little goodies like collage sheets and old tickets plus even their packaging is cute and reusable.  The sheet with the leaves and acorns on the bottom is the other side of the invoice so you can reuse it as well.  I can't wait to play with these fun goodies.  Here is a look at my current reading pile.  I checked Basil's War by Stephen Hunter from the library, my daughter lent me The Paper Palace, and I bought The Host, Going Back to Petrey, and The Lady in Blue from the Thrift Store. I am reading Basil's War and The Lady in Blue at the same time - something I really shouldn't do especially since both books are the kind that switch between stories every chapter.  Th...
