My Never Again List


Let's see, I haven't made a single card in days although I wanted to but just couldn't get down to it. So I just went on with daily chores, watch t.v. a little and nap a lot. My eldest son said this creative-mood-on-hold is called "artist block". That's what happened to me. Sometimes I get the so called artist block for months! L O L ..... Now that I'm back to being creative again I have thought of a personal card with biblical messages that speak to my spiritual soul. Now that's totally uplifting!
I colored and cut out the girl figure, craft punched heart shapes and created roses out of them, stamped wordings and rolled out the heart frame with Jeart 1700027 Heart Shape#2 and tied some beads to the silver string to secure the inside piece of paper to the card.

The card opens up to my Never Again list.

For God so loved me - and the world- that He gave His one and only begotten Son, Jesus Christ to help me live life purposefully and abundantly now and for eternity. Jesus Christ says in Revelation 3:30 "Look! Here I stand at the door and knock. If you hear me calling and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal as friends."

I opened my heart to let Jesus in to live with me and since then life has a whole new meaning in which I understand why God has put me here on earth for His purpose. It's not about me but God and His glory. I'm just so glad that when I follow Jesus Christ, I know the way to live, the truth to believe and a great life to live.

Inspirational Messages


Inspirational messages lift up one's spirit and bring encouragement into our lives. Just reading these messages while making cards set my mood and inspiration swinging high! Messages in these cards read: God gives the best to those who leave the choice to Him; This is the day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice and be glad in it!; Love bears all things with gentleness and understanding.

Plain notes and messages can be transformed into fabulous cards by dressing up with embellished cut out shapes. I bought these inspirational messages from a Christian bookstore. Small cards take as much time to make as bigger cards but they make such sweet cards - lots of goodness packed in small size - like me! :) lol!!!!!
Messages in these cards: Our life is a gift from God. What we do with that life is our gift to God; Lord, help us to find our way through the changes in our lives; Count your blessings not your worries; God bless you today and always.

He is my peace.

It's the small acts of kindness that so greatly touch our lives.

God knows when our hearts need encouragement. "Cast all your anxiety on him because He cares for you." 1 peter 5:7

"I can do everything through Christ who gives me strength." Philippians 4:13
When I count my blessings I thank God for giving me you.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart.

May God's love enfold you. May God's peace surround you. May God's light touch you.
"I will be glad and rejoice in you; I will sing praise to your name O Most High" Psalm 9:2
Good friends like you make all the difference. May God bless and keep you always.

"Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights..."James 1:17
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change...courage to change the things I can and wisdom to know the difference.
