Just playing today and trying to get rid of some old designer paper and using the vivid vases stamp set by stampin up! It is quite old, but I do love this set! I used water color paper and my blender pens along with Bermuda Bay, Crushed Curry, and Calyso Coral ink pads for the water color effect. Added a little sparkle by using Wink of Stella Clear. So easy to make!<br />
<br />
Card Base- 5 1/2 x 8 folded in half<br />
Designer paper-5 1/4 x 4<br />
Image was cut out using an old die I had!<br />
Added a piece of washi tape in the middle under image<br />
<br />

So please tell me what you think as I don’t want to send out something that don’t match. I used two stamp sets, Wetlands and Close as a Memory, an oldie but good one. So here it is for your review.<br />

I am so excited to be back to stamping and using some of my old but great stamp sets. I have so many and hate to part with them. Today I am sharing a card I have done for the latest color challenge over at <a href="https://colorthrowdown.blogspot.com/?m=1">Color Throw Down!</a> I loved the colors and just went through my stamps and these two stamp sets just stood out, Blessings from Heaven and Array of Sunshine. There is nothing better than creating your own designer paper. I hope you like the finished product because I do.<br />

Today I made this special card for my husband by using some old designer paper I had called Adventure Bound. It is probably at least 4 years old and was from Stampin Up. I loved all the paper and was surprised to find this piece left. It was great for a Father’s Day Card for my husband. I also got the salutation from another stamp set called And Many Mower. Another old stamp set by Stampin up. The other salutation on the inside was from Hooray Its your Birthday also by Stampin up.So without further ado, here it is!<br />

Hope you are all doing well this rainy Sunday! I would like to share with you two cards that I used an old stamp set from Stampin up called “Hey Chick.” I really had a great time doing these cards, and they are so fun. As you can see below, I also did the inside of each card. Also with the first card I outlined in red using a red thin sharpie the embossing created by an old embossing folder from Stampin up! Both cards were so easy. And great cards to send out for birthday or just to make someone smile.<br />

They had this cute digital set for free on the Facebook page and so I printed 2 of them on size 8 1/2 X 11 paper. You can find the digital stamp set <a href="https://www.sweetnsassystamps.com/mr-fix-it-digital-stamp/">Here</a> if you would like to check it out. So here is my card using this digital set.<br />

I actually took the Happy Father’s Day and cut it apart by hand. I also sponged the paper for the greeting on outside and inside and sponged the outer edges of the card. Thanks for stopping by and hope you enjoyed your visit. </div>

I am back with two cards for you today. The first card is for the challenges at the following places. First of all The<a href="http://thepaperplayers.blogspot.com/"> Paper Players sketch!</a> Second, <a href="https://colorthrowdown.blogspot.com/">The color throw down challenge.</a> And, finally <a href="https://suochallenges.com/">Stampin Up Only challenge</a>, which is designers choice. So with this card I water colored the paper and then black embossed all the stamping.<br />

I found this challenge (again) this morning and decided to make a card for it and then decided to make another, so I have two cards to share with you. I actually played with <a href="https://colorthrowdown.blogspot.com/">Color Throw Down</a> way back when I was stamping a lot and loved doing the color challenges. Color challenges can give you a lot of inspiration.<br />
<br />
For the first card I used the stamp set Butterfly Basics and the dies that go with it. As I said in my last post, this is one of my favorite stamp sets. It is so versatile and the dies are fantastic. So here is my butterfly card.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Now here is my second card and for this one I used the old stamp set Motorcycle. This is always a good card for a man and a woman. I have a good friend that just finally sold her pink motorcycle and now just rides with her husband. But I do love this old standbys stamp.<br />

I used one of my old time favorite stamp sets today to make this card for this weeks <a href="https://www.retrorubberchallengeblog.com/my-blog/">Retro Rubber Challenge.</a> There challenge was Tic Tac Toe and you had to choose 3 in a straight line, tic tac toe style. I chose die cut, birthday, and bright colors. This is just my style. Another reason for playing this challenge is most of my stamps are over a year old and that is one of the rules. I think Butterfly basics is around 3-5 years old, maybe older. For the bright colors, I used Melon Mambo (one of my favorite colors) and gum ball green. There were spots I double stamped off the paper to lighten the color some, but they are the only two colors I used. I also used the bold butterfly framelits for the butterfly. So now for the card!<br />

Well I was looking at my punches and I saw my old bird punch and decided to use it along with another punch to highlight the sentiment of one of the stamps in The Rose Wonder set. What a beautiful set it is, even though I only used one of them. It is actually one of my favorite stamp sets. I also stamped flowers in black on a white paper for the background using the stamp set Secret Garden and even added color over them by sponging. So without further ado, here it is.<br />

I love a good color challenge and this one worked great for a card I wanted to make for a friend of mine. Colors for the challenge were pool party, melon mambo and apple green. I did not have the apple green, so I used the gum ball green. Stamp set used was Beautiful You by Stampin Up and used the balloon punch. I also used one of the stamps to make the design paper. <br />

I just loved the art and wording on it, so, why not share with someone else. And since it was sitting on my desk this morning when I went and looked at the challenge, it just seemed right. I am a stickler for not throwing anything away I might be able to use in my card making and that can be dangerous. Haha. Just so I don't do anything wrong, on the back of her card, it said, “Original Art by Jane Shasky.” So if you want to look her up you can. Now here is my card fir this challenge!<br />

Sitting there on my table was the Create A Cupcake stamp set, so I Thought just use that. And as I was going through my embossing folders, I found the SU Confetti Embossing folder and it had never been used. Also, the center of the confetti embossing folder was an oval, so I used the Oval dies. So, here is the outcome!<br />

Well, saw my owl punch sitting on my shelf and thought wow let me use that old punch. I had seen something like this on Pinterest so thank you Pinterest for the idea. I also used a die cut I got at A C Moore ( hate they are going out of business) for very little, a Love Nichole feather die. It seemed to match the theme of the card. Alway remember to look at the old stuff. You can really make some great cards out of them. Sentiment came from an old stamp-set by SU called Happiest Birthday Wishes. Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful Monday!</div>

I am playing almost everyday with my stamps for at least 30 minutes or so. I am just looking at my stamps and picking one. Here is one I used called Apothecary Art, and then I water colored the flowers with a blending pen. tThe sentiment in the middle came from Messages for Mom, another old stamp set. I then used an embossing folder from Stampin Up, unsure of name, ran it through the big shot and then ran my white ink pad over the top. You just got to love it. Thought this card would be great to send out for some encouragement right now. <div>

I am using this card for the <a href="https://suochallenges.com/">Stampin Up Only challenge.</a> Hope you enjoy!</div>

I’m back again with a card I created for the <a href="https://suochallenges.com/">stampin up only challenge.</a> How great is that. Been a while since I did any challenges and this stay at home quarantine has got me stamping again. Something I have always loved.<br />
<br />
There challenge for this was a sketch challenge using one of the cards from the SU spring catalogue on page 42. I am so happy with the way this turned out. Here is my card using the butterfly dies and of course some old DS paper I had. Sentiment came from stamp set six sided sampler.<br />

I love my Lord, but I think we seem to not pray or seek Him as much or praise Him when we are fine, no sickness, and everything is great. So it really makes us think about how faithful God is to us all the time. He loves us even when we are slack.</span><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" /><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" /><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: white; caret-color: rgb(34, 34, 34); color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Helvetica, FreeSans, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;">Since we are quarantined to our homes right now and doing social distancing, I have also been stamping quite a bit over the last week.

Ok, there you have it. My weekend fun! Hope you enjoyed looking and remember that God loves you and is still in control. I am praying for our world and leaders during this time of uncertainty. May God heal our Land!</div>

I had someone remind me last night that I had not posted in a while. Well, when I retired in June I planned on doing a lot of posting and that has not worked out. So I thought today would be a beginning maybe to a new start on my blog. Here are two cards that I did for my grandson and granddaughters birthdays.</div>

What a great way to share the strength that God has given me than through Isaiah 40:31. That is the topic for the April Challenge that Patter posted, and you can find her post <a href="https://triplethescraps.blogspot.com/2018/05/glory-art-rewind-2018-strength.html">here</a>. You should stop by and read her post as she is such a great writer and always challenges me to work harder on my devotions. And now that I am retired, yes tomorrow will be 2 weeks, I plan on working more in my devotions and even spreading my wings a little more with these challenges.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Again, I chose Isaiah 40:31 to be my focal point for this challenge as it has always been a verse I would go to when I felt down or troubled. It always reminded me to wait upon the Lord and He would strengthen me and with everything going on in my life, I would not be weary or faint.</div>

For this page, I used the ODB stamp set On Eagles Wings. For the scripture I used Stampin' Up! markers to color the scripture and then stamped it. I also used a cloud punch and then using SU inks, I sponged clouds all around the page. I stamped the eagle and colored it with Faber Castle Artist Pens. It really turned out great and I owe it all to another person's journaling I found on Pinterest.

Happy Monday everyone. I took a few minutes yesterday to do some journaling in my bible. I am trying to do the Glory Art Rewind 2018 challenge that Patter Cross does and wow, what a great one for this month of April. Her post is a must see and read for this one. You can find it<a href="http://triplethescraps.blogspot.com/2018/04/glory-art-rewind-2018-religion.html"> here</a>.</div>

When I was reading the verse that I underlined below, it just spoke to me regarding this subject and that I (we) have to be very careful of what I hear and believe an even listen too. There are many religious people out there that know the bible, but do no know the Jesus of the Bible. I try to always go to God's word when things might not sound right, the truth will come from God's Word. I pray that the Holy Spirit will give me discernment to make the right decisions on what God is speaking to me. There are many false prophets out there and if I am not walking in Him (Jesus), rooted in Him, built up in Him and established in His faith, I will not be able to discern what is right and what is wrong. Here is the verses I underlined.</div>

It also showed me that it is not about Religion, where I go to church or what denomination I am, it is about an intimate relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ. When you have that relationship with Jesus, when you know Him intimately, you will be able to discern what is right and what is not. I am growing each and every day in His Word and in Him. It is not an easy journey folks, but it is a rewarding journey. </div>

Good Morning everyone. Hope your week is going well. As you know, I have just started my journey on this Bible Journaling adventure and so far, I am loving it. It was so scary the first time I did it as I did not want to mess up my page. Well I have come to the conclusion that no one seems to see the mistakes, but me, and some of them are big. Plus I get so into it and what I am going to write on my page. It is just what I need to relax and enjoy God's Word.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am also enjoying my return to the Glory Art challenges by Patter Cross and this month's challenge is on Forgiveness. You can find her great post<a href="http://triplethescraps.blogspot.com/2018/03/glory-art-rewind-2018-forgiveness.html"> here</a>. I love her post and hope you drop by her blog to check it out. </div>

As I thought about forgiveness and all the things that have happened to me in the last 5 years, all I could think about once I saw the scripture, Ephesians 4: 29-32 was that we all need to Be Kind to One Another AND Forgive! Ephesians 4: 29-32 says, "<em>Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give <sup class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-ESV-29285B" data-link="(<a href="#cen-ESV-29285B" title="See cross-reference B">B</a>)"></sup>grace to those who hear. <span class="text Eph-4-30" id="en-ESV-29286"><sup class="versenum">30 </sup>And <sup class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-ESV-29286C" data-link="(<a href="#cen-ESV-29286C" title="See cross-reference C">C</a>)"></sup>do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, <sup class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-ESV-29286D" data-link="(<a href="#cen-ESV-29286D" title="See cross-reference D">D</a>)"></sup>by whom you were sealed for the day of <sup class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-ESV-29286E" data-link="(<a href="#cen-ESV-29286E" title="See cross-reference E">E</a>)"></sup>redemption.</span> <span class="text Eph-4-31" id="en-ESV-29287"><sup class="versenum">31 </sup><sup class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-ESV-29287F" data-link="(<a href="#cen-ESV-29287F" title="See cross-reference F">F</a>)"></sup>Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice.</span> <span class="text Eph-4-32" id="en-ESV-29288"><sup class="versenum">32 </sup><sup class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-ESV-29288G" data-link="(<a href="#cen-ESV-29288G" title="See cross-reference G">G</a>)"></sup>Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, <sup class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-ESV-29288H" data-link="(<a href="#cen-ESV-29288H" title="See cross-reference H">H</a>)"></sup><strong>forgiving one another</strong>, as <strong>God in Christ forgave you</strong>."</span></em></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<em><span class="text Eph-4-32"></span></em> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As I thought on these verses and all that happened between me and one other person, and how everything got thrown all out of proportion, and then when I ask forgiveness and even bare my soul to this person, talk is spread even to the point that they try to pull my daughter in and have her take sides. I had no idea this was going on until my daughter finally told me. I knew there was talk, but to try and sway my daughter, wow. Needless to say, it has taken me years to finally get this out of my mind and not to think about it daily. I would pray and cry out to God to help me to just forget it, and finally as I continued to pray and ask God for His help, I have finally forgiven this person for what she has done and I really fill sorry for her. It took me away from a church that I love, my husband and I and also my daughter, but God has blessed us with another church that is such a blessing to us. I do know that we have to be careful how we handle things as it did begin with me trying to tell her something in love about hurting someone else and she got upset with me and I did not finish my conversation in the best way. That was the reason for my apology to her and to ask her to forgive me. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
God asked in these verses that we should let no corrupting talk come out of our mouths, but only such is good for building up. He also says to be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another as God in Christ forgave us. I have to forgive! It only holds you captive when you continue to hold on to unforgiveness. From experience, I am saying if you are holding on to unforgiveness, cry out to our Savior to help you to overcome. I can say with all honesty, He has helped me to do just that. I now can speak to this person, pray for this person and love this person. I could not do that without my Lord and His strength. I am so excited to be able to share Him with others and also share how He forgave me.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is my journaling for this challenge of Forgiveness. And, since this is only my 3rd journaling experience in my new bible, I can say it is my favorite thus far.</div>

Good Morning everyone! I am so excited about this new stamp set from Stampin' Up! and also the dies that you can purchase to go with it. It is called Hold on to Hope Stamp set and the Cross of Hope Framlits. I made these cards along with duplicates of some last weekend and just getting around to posting. The first one below I have already sent to a friend you just found out she has cancer and started Chemo last week. I thought the message on the front was perfect for her. It was so easy, as I stamped the cross in a light color and stamped the message on top in a lighter color. Found some old designer paper (have tons of this stuff) and matched it all up. So easy even a beginner could do it.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The two below, I used the stamps and used one of my markers to color the stamp, I stamped it and then used the die to cut it out. I then cut out the cross using a die and kind of wrapped the vine around it. Used a die for the little butterfly also after I stamped it.</div>

And, wanted to make a manly card, so I did the same as the first only found some more designer paper that looked more manly and matched the colors to it. </div>

Happy Saturday afternoon to everyone. Hope your day has been blessed. I decided to work on the second Glory Art Rewind 2018 study. The word for this study is compassion. Patter had a wonderful post to share with us on Compassion. You can find it<a href="http://triplethescraps.blogspot.com/2018/02/glory-art-rewind-2018-compassion.html"> here</a>.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am still not sure how I feel about my Bible Journaling, but I believe if it comes from the heart, then it is beautiful to God. And it does come from the heart. When I searched compassion, the verses that stood out to me was Michah 7:18-19, <span style="font-family: inherit;"><i><span style="background-color: white;">Who is a God</span><span class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-NIV-22683A" data-link="(<a href="#cen-NIV-22683A" title="See cross-reference A">A</a>)" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 22px; position: relative; top: 0px; vertical-align: top;"></span><span style="background-color: white;"> </span><span style="background-color: white;">like you, </span><span class="text Mic-7-18" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; position: relative;">who pardons sin<span class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-NIV-22683B" data-link="(<a href="#cen-NIV-22683B" title="See cross-reference B">B</a>)" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 22px; position: relative; top: 0px; vertical-align: top;"></span> and forgives<span class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-NIV-22683C" data-link="(<a href="#cen-NIV-22683C" title="See cross-reference C">C</a>)" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 22px; position: relative; top: 0px; vertical-align: top;"></span> the transgression </span><span class="text Mic-7-18" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; position: relative;">of the remnant<span class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-NIV-22683D" data-link="(<a href="#cen-NIV-22683D" title="See cross-reference D">D</a>)" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 22px; position: relative; top: 0px; vertical-align: top;"></span> of his inheritance? </span><span style="background-color: white;">You do not stay angry</span><span class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-NIV-22683F" data-link="(<a href="#cen-NIV-22683F" title="See cross-reference F">F</a>)" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 22px; position: relative; top: 0px; vertical-align: top;"></span><span style="background-color: white;"> </span><span style="background-color: white;">forever</span><span class="indent-1-breaks" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 0;"> </span><span class="text Mic-7-18" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; position: relative;">but delight to show <nobr style="box-sizing: border-box;">mercy</nobr>. </span><span style="background-color: white;">You will again have compassion on us; </span></i><i><span class="indent-1" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box;"><span class="text Mic-7-19" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; position: relative;">you will tread our sins underfoot </span></span><span class="indent-1" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box;"><span class="text Mic-7-19" style="-webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased; box-sizing: border-box; position: relative;">and hurl all our iniquities<span class="crossreference" data-cr="#cen-NIV-22684H" data-link="(<a href="#cen-NIV-22684H" title="See cross-reference H">H</a>)" style="box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 22px; position: relative; top: 0px; vertical-align: top;"></span> into the depths of the sea.</span></span></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am so thankful for a God who has COMPASSION on me to the point that He delights to show mercy on me and not only that, He forgives my sins and hurls them into the depths of the sea. I can never ever thank him enough for that. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here is the journaling I did this morning for this study. This is only my second journaling in my Bible, so i am learning how this is done. I am hoping that before I finish this year, I will know what I am doing. But for now, I will go with my heart.</div>
