Celebrating Firsts

2010-04-16T18:30:00.001-04:00

I was thinking the other day how many first we celebrate in life. First birthday, first steps, first anniversary, first tooth and the list goes on and on. For the past month I have not been celebrating a first although it was the first time to have shingles. Boy are they so not fun!!! When someone tells you they are painful that truly is an understatement. Until you experience them yourself you have no idea how painful they are. The shingles have almost disappeared but the nerve pain is still present and not sure how long it is going to take to go away.
I have not had a lot of creative juices going right now due to the pain and lack of sleep. I did want to remind you that I am designer of the month at NutHouse-Scraps and I have a free kit over there for you if you have not already gotten over there to get it be sure you do!

Come Join In On: My Lifetime Story

2009-11-07T12:31:00.001-05:00

As the year is coming to an end we are busy planning for next year. In 2010 we are going back to the basics of leaving a legacy of faith. This years challenges are all focused on YOU and your lifetime story. When you join us in this challenge you will be creating a mini-autobiography. We are counting down the days till January 6th because we are so stinkin' excited about the My Lifetime Story challenges!!!

Wouldn't you to know what your grandma's favorite toy was as a child, how she felt when she met your grandpa, her favorite scripture and the song that expressed her heart? Your children and grandchildren will have that treasure when you join us in this challenge!

We will start out with your family roots in January and move into your childhood in February. We will continue throughout the year with your teen and adult years as well. The last challenge of the year will be a letter to your future generations or anyone who reads your book.

Each of our stories is important. This is a book that everyone should create about themselves. It will be the most treasured album of your family. As you create this album about your lifetime story you will be leaving YOUR LEGACY OF FAITH. This is an album that can make an impact in your life as you create it, but it will also create a major impact in the lives of your family both now and in future generations. As your children read your story in this scrapbook that YOU created, they will take your stories to heart. Your stories may have more impact on them than even Bible stories, because they are personal and from someone they know and . When friends and neighbors pick up your storybook and look through it you will be witnessing without even saying a word. They will read your lifetime history and discover your of Jesus, and His forgiveness and faithfulness in your life!

The My Lifetime story challenges will begin the first Wednesday in January. A new challenge will be posted each Wednesday all throughout 2010. The last challenge will be posted the last Wednesday of December. Just because the challenge series ends at the end of 2010 doesn't mean your lifetime story album is finished. We will continue to offer periodic challenges to continue your autobiography and keep it current.

Please join us in this year long challenge! Some of these challenges may be layouts you have already completed. That is ok! We need to get these all compiled in your lifetime storybook. Everyone deserves to be the star of their own book, including and most importantly YOU! If you don't put some time aside to create your My Lifetime Story album now, you may never find the time. If something were to happen to you, would your legacy of faith be lost forever? Take action now, join us as we create our lifetime storybooks for the next generation to see the glorious work the Lord can do in the life of a woman that loves God!

Begin thinking about what size album you would like to use for your My Lifetime Story challenge. started hers in an 8x8 but now has decided that she needs more space so is moving up to a 12x12. is doing hers 12x12 also because she knew she had a lot she wanted to fit into this album. What size do you prefer? Start gathering your supplies now so you will be ready to start when we kick off the first challenge January 6th!

Next week we will post a Photo List so you can start gathering photos that you will need for this challenge.

New Scripture Mini kit - My Shepherd

2009-01-22T11:07:00.003-05:00

I have a new scripture mini kit in the store and it will sell for $1.00 until January 30 then it will be $2.00. You can get this at Faith Sisters

My creative team has been busy with the new kits and I have to show you what they have been doing with them.

The first is layouts using, "Glitz'n Glam".

The next ones are using the first scripture mini kit, "White As Snow" if you scrap booking your faith these are excellent resources. I am trying to put one out a week and keeping the cost to $2.00 so they don't break your budget but the first week they are on special at just one dollar.

The papers for White as Snow are really pictures of snow that I used as textures and I love how they turned out.

White As Snow

2009-01-15T19:41:00.002-05:00

White As Snow is the first in my Scripture mini kits I will be having in the store at Faith Sisters. I wanted to come up with some kits that wouldn't break your budget and still allow you to scrap book your faith. Right now the kit is only $1.00 until next week when the price goes back to two dollars.

Bling Bling!

2009-01-10T13:54:00.004-05:00

Oh, how I love bling! I get teased at church because when I am on the worship team I have a lapel pin that is some pretty big bling and it catches the lights. Well my new kit "Glitz'n Glam has loads of bling for those special layouts that need a bit of flash and shine.

You can get it at Faith Sisters and Divine Digitals.

YEAR END BLOW OUT

2008-12-31T09:55:00.003-05:00

I wanted to go out with a big bang in 2008 so I am having a BIG SALE EVERYTHING IS $1.00 in my store at Faith Sisters. This will not last long, just a little over 24 hours so don't miss out on this event.

Whew, since a few days before Christmas things have been crazy. What are the odds that out of three family members that all three of you would have car troubles at the same time? First it was our daughter saying she didn't think they would be able to come for Christmas as the part they needed to repair their car would have to be ordered and it was not expected to arrive before Christmas (which turned out to be the case) so we will have Christmas with them later.

Then our son had car woes too, and his depended on how expensive his would be as to weither he would be able to come for Christmas. (He did get to come)

Then on the Monday before Christmas we broke down in our SUV, well I should say we had a smoking, freezing time of it. It was the coldest day we have had around here with -22 wind chills.
We were trying to finish up last minute Christmas gifts, when the car acted up so we turned around to head for home, praying we would make it there. Well we didn't quite make it there before we had smoke poring out of the front of the truck. We are pretty sure that the engine blew or something major.

So on Monday we went looking trying to find something we could afford. We didn't want car payments and because we live in an area where you can expect snow & ice we like 4 x 4's.
So I searched the internet, made calls etc. Finally found something close and in our price range and off we went to look at it. It turned out to be just what we were looking for, YEAH!!
So here are our new wheels, a 1998 Grand Jeep Cherokee and I love it!

We had so much fun with our grandsons at Christmas even though we only saw two of them.
The oldest had a blast beating Grandpaw at shooting at a target, and the youngest takes his aiming very serious as you can see from this picture.

Well maybe things will settle down for a little bit at least I hope so as I need a little recovery time.

Oh, I also learned don't give your dog a ham bone. I made that mistake and payed for it with a sick dog for two days. I guess ham is hard on a dogs liver, well there wasn't any ham left on it. I boiled it getting it clean so it wouldn't be messy. But of course my aggressive chewer ate almost all of the bone the first night. So the next day she spent many trips outside, every woke me up in the night to take her out (which she never does) Thank goodness she seems to be over it today.

Christmas Countdown!

2008-12-15T17:09:00.003-05:00

Nine days till Christmas and I can't believe how fast the time goes. I have loads to do yet to get ready and there are still programs we have to get through at church. It is always this way for me, I'm always a last minute shopper, although I do have a bit done due to a store that closed in our area. I have outfits for all 4 of the grandsons so I am a little bit ahead of the game. I have no clue what to buy for my husband this year. Last year I knew what I wanted to get months ahead of time and worked toward that goal, but this year I just don't know.

Well I did a kit Guest Spot for Ella Designs using "Christmas Is Here" what a fab kit this is. You will need to go check out this one there is a little bit of everything in this kit, it is stuffed with goodies.

Breakfast in Bethlehem

2008-12-13T21:23:00.004-05:00

I have neglected my blog lately there just hasn't been time to devote to it. Well I am back and I hope to keep up with it better than I have. So to get started the last few days have been extremely busy. Our church hosted Breakfast in Bethlehem today, the neighborhood was invited to breakfast and later pictures would be taken with Santa. Santa arrives as the breakfast in finishing up to tell the true story of Christmas. It was great!

I have to admit the guy in the red suit in my dd playing Santa, he did an awesome job. I even had my picture taken with Santa.

Yesterday evening we spent about 3 hours decorating the area where the children would be for their pictures to be taken with Santa. So today I was the photographer for these sessions, we thought we had everything planned well. We had two fast printers, and extra supplies of ink, paper etc. I had two memory cards and one that was used by our church camera. So you would think all would be well.......................not! My extra memory card wouldn't work with my new camera (I didn't think to check it grrrrrrrrrrrr) and the other extra had the same problem.
So I would take a picture take out the card, they would load into the printer, print and then give it back to me. We did 50 pictures that way but the kids were happy they had lots of time with Santa. Parents were happy they didn't have to pay the mall price for the pictures as they were free so the waiting wasn't so bad after all. My right leg is killing me though, I had planned on using my tripod but with having to take out the card all the time that wasn't working. So to stablilize the camera when I took the picture I was kneeling down and resting my elbow on my knee. Well this Grandmother hasn't done that many deep knee bends in a long time. I hurt already not sure what tomorrow is gonna bring. At least my back held out ok, last week I was having some back issues and had to miss church last week due to that.

My daughter is wanting to become a photographer and recently upgraded her digital camera. She has been experiment trying to build her profolio and learn how to use her camera. It had been awhile since I played around with mine so I did a bit of that this week too. I was really pleased with this one with the ring on the Bible. It even amazed me, I have a nice point & shoot camera that goes up to 12 megapixels. It is by Kodak and I love it.

On this one I love the clarity but I need to experiment some more to see what I could do with the shadow.

Well that is all for today so now I need to see if I can get some creativity going and get a new kit designed for you.

Do You Need REFRESHED?

2008-10-27T09:43:00.004-04:00

Sometimes the weekends get so busy with activities that they aren't very relaxing, lol. This past weekend was that way for me. It started off well with a relaxing massage Friday afternoon but that changed on Saturday. I woke up not feeling very well, sinus season is upon us and I hate it. So that started the day off on the wrong foot, I had to lay down putting heat on the sinus area which did help after I slept for about 40 minutes. Our church was having a Fall Harvest Festival that afternoon so I had to feel better because the Worship team was singing for about 40 minutes during it.
I made it through the activities of the Festival and we had an awesome turn out for it. The children looked so cute in their costumes and had so much fun with all the games.
Sunday morning was full as always being a minister's wife, starting with praise practice at 8:30 am and then morning worship. I think with the sinus stuff that I've had going on I ended up with a massive headache that was affecting my vision. So I didn't make it back for the evening service yesterday.
I feel much better today just tired and I need to be Refreshed. Maybe you do too after your weekend. So Come to the Water and be refreshed with these calm and soothing colors in my newest kit.

Everything in my store at Faith Sisters is 30% off thru October 31st.

Dollar Days $$$$$$$ plus a freebie

2008-10-03T18:36:00.005-04:00

This has been a very emotional week for us, our son came and told us they are getting a divorce and it was out of the blue. We had no idea so we weren't in any way prepared for this news. I'm not sure you would every get totally prepared for something like this but maybe you at least wouldn't have been blindsided. So all week my creative spirit flew the coop, I was just really tired and couldn't focus at all on doing any designing. But finally yesterday I finished a collab that I had due for October and that seemed to kick me back in gear.

Wow have I got a bargain for you starting today and going through October 10th everything in the store is $1.00 at Faith Sisters.

Hurt'in for Certain!

2008-08-06T16:02:00.008-04:00

Oh, ouch! I am feeling my age today as we have had some intensive practices for a concert we are to have on Saturday. Even after all that standing on Sunday & Monday we went to the fair last night and walked around there for about 3 more hours. By the time we arrived home my ankle was reminding of a past injury I suffered to it. So needless to say I did not sleep well last night at all. On top of that I am usually a lady of leisure, (not) well I don't work outside of the home. I am busy designing during the day along with other things I do for the church. Today I had to start filling in for the secretary at church while she is recovering from knee replacement surgery. Well it wasn't to bad since it is only for 4 hours and I will love having that little extra pay. That has pretty much been my day today and my little dog doesn't know what to think as she had to be in her crate most of the day. Hmmmmmm she ain't gonna like the next 6 weeks.

I did finally finish a new kit yesterday for Faith Sisters shop called, "Tropical Visions".

It will be on sale for 40% off as an intro price until August 9th. I was out and took some more pictures to use as textures. I just put these in the store so check them out! And look below for another sample of textures that are free for you.

And if you want to try out my textures I have another freebie for you that you can pick up here at Faith Sisters.

Photos to Pencil Sketches

2008-08-04T10:09:00.003-04:00

Whew am I tired this morning!! Our group "Vision" is getting ready for a concert on Saturday so we had a 3 hour practice yesterday after all the regular activities we have a church. We are to have another practice this evening so I will be taking a nap later today for sure. Say a prayer for me as I'm not use to singing for over 2 hours in a concert. We usually have an hour concert so this will be a big day for us on Saturday.

Awhile back I stumbled across "Mama Shan's" video tutorials for photoshop on YouTube. I don't have photoshop but I do have Photoshop Elements so I watched the video about turning a photo into a pencil sketch. After watching it I wanted to try and see how far I could go even though I don't have all of the features that Photoshop has. I couldn't find the exact picture I used on this picture below as my computer crashed awhile back and I lost some items.

I did find the orginal picture of my dog, " Lexie" and below you see what I did using the steps from "Mama Shan's" tutorial to turn it into a pencil sketch. I was fun to try and I learn some more about my program which I didn't know how to do before going through this.

I took the finished pencil sketches and added a few more things to them so I could use them on some cards I was making to sell.

So a fun way to learn your program or learn something new is to go through a tutorial such as these. So I challenge you this week to try something new!

Humming Birds & Moths

2008-08-02T11:52:00.005-04:00

I finally bought a Humming Bird feeder and was so excited about getting it set up today. When I got home with it and opened the box only part of the feeder is in there, grrrrrrrrrrr.... So they will have to wait on the feeder until I can take it back across town to exchange it.
Just about every day I have seen a humming bird out and about the flowers in the backyard. I planted a Humming Bird vine last year and it is growing fast but so far it just has one small bunch of flowers so I hope by next year it will have more for them.

Anyway I just found out an interesting fact yesterday that there is a Humming Bird Moth.

This is so interesting that a moth looks at first glance just like a Humming bird. I will have to be on the look out for these now that I know there is such a thing.

Textures Around Us!

2008-07-31T15:27:00.003-04:00

Everywhere I look I see textures, the grass, bark on the tree, bricks, stonewalls etc.. You name it and it is there. I have been making my own textures for my designing so I started a new line in the store of textures.

I am going to put these textures on Sale for half off at Faith Sisters until August 4th, so you can get these for just $1.50 and I also have a freebie texture called, "White Grunge" for you that you can pick up here.

Just leave me some love if you grab it. Have a great day!!

Up Close and Personal

2008-07-30T16:08:00.003-04:00

I have been experimenting with my camera the last few days. I keep coming across this little green fellow sitting in my flowers.

I have on idea if this is the same green fellow as he looks different to me but he posed so nice.

I guess I was making him nervous as he turned his back on me in this one.

And just in case you have gotten totally bugged out by now I have some of my favorite flower pictures for you.

This last one I used a free photo textures by Christian O’Dell and you can pick these up on his blog.

A Whole New Look

2008-07-28T09:33:00.007-04:00

I am so excited I have a whole new look for my blog!!! I have be admiring the blogs with the fancy headers and sidebars that all match. I had figured out how do my own header for my blog but I had no clue how to do the sidebars. So the other day I was going through the forum at DST and came across Shabby Miss Jenn's shabby blogs.
These have all the elements already done for you but I was still not ready to take the plunge because I still had no idea how to get these into my blog.
I found some other cute kits with the same concept the one difference for me which brought me back to buy from Shabby Miss Jenn was she has a tutorial already setup that walks you through the whole process of how to get this into your blog. So I watched the tutorial video and thought I can do this!!
So Saturday I took the plunge and bought the kit. It took me about 2 hours to get everything set up, I had to customize my header and the sidebars to say what I wanted on them. Then began the setup, with the video tutorial you can watch it and then stop it to do what you need to do.

Believe me if I can do it anyone can. So go fancy up your blog as there is nothing standing in your way now.

Just Thinking!

2008-07-26T20:44:00.000-04:00

Whew, this summer is flying by I can't believe that we will soon be in August. I am busy planning a Ladies retreat called, "Heart Spa" for September and when I started way back in January it seemed like it was so far away but now it is only a matter of 8 weeks away. So now I'm begining to feel in the panic mode, I have to tell myself it will all come together as I have a great leadership team helping me. I am excited about "Heart Spa" because it is so different from regular retreats. There will be different times when we will have spa times which will include, facials, massage of the hands, and pedicures.

Well I have a little sample of my newest kit, "Exquisite Notion" in a quick page for you. You can pick it up at Faith Sisters.

Don't forget right now to celebrate my 35th Wedding anniversary everything in the store is 35% off and grab this bonus coupon for another $3.50 off when you have an order of at least $10.00, the code is 35Wedding
