CREATIVE HAPPENINGS

It is soooo good to be with super special friends again  creating, laughing and eating, of course! Here's our latest creations!

Here are some Tangling Doodles I drew.

I have recently taken up "Memorydex Cards" with Robin Sampson who teaches and shares her love of God digitally and creatively. She has wonderful Bible Studies and great ways to get artsy with scripture. Her blog link is http://biblejournalingdigitally.com/author/robin/ I am currently doing the free study "Who Am I In Christ"

Well, I got a little crafty and creative doing what I love to do!!! The best part of playing is when I get to play with my friends. I wonder if it is considered and "Adult Play Day"? Anyways, it is always good to fellowship with friends.
I have some awesome little grandkids who love to receive mail,  so Nana has been sending some to them.

  I received the new Heartfelt Creations "Cherry Blossom Retreat Collection" the other day and proceeded to create something with it. I used a can which I covered with rolled magazine paper, distressed it with Distressed Oxide Ink and covered it with Heartfelt Cherry Blossom's.

Our Wednesday card group made these cards using Stampin Up products.

More fall and Christmas items being made.

Another retreat is coming my way and here are some of the things we will be making.

There will be another card which I will be posting later so be sure to check in again.

I received the new set of Ranger Distress Oxide Inks and I had to play!

They are similar to the Distress Inks except that they blend a lot better

and smoother. I really like them.

The card below was done using Ranger Distress Crayons

I used Stampin Up's stamp sets

Best Thoughts

My second Card Workshop was so much fun!!!

We learned how to "telescope", layer, make a swing card

and so much more. What a great day with some great gals!!!

Here are some of the results of the day.

Some more cards that I have done along with some of my friends

We’re yellow and plenty as we sprout in the Spring,

but most don’t like us, we’re called a WEED thing.

The kids run to us picking a bouquet for Mother,

she smiles filling a vase as we join one another.

There is more to us if the whole truth would be shared,

we are a blessing created with much loving care.

God grows us Dandelions in plenty for you,

we can help heal and strengthen and rejuvenate, too.

And if you don’t pick us when we’re a beautiful flower,

we will blow away today to become another tomorrow.

So, when you see a yellow purposeful WEED,

know that God has a plan that’s planted from a tiny small seed..
