Hi there dear friends! I know it's been a while since I've blogged and I am so happy to finally be back. We've had some difficulties here at home and it has affected me down to the very depths of my heart. I don't want to go into it fully here, but I craft with all my heart and it has been near impossible for me to craft at all! Day by day my spirit has strengthened and I can see that this will be a time of growth for me. I am so thankful for the Lord who is carrying me though this difficult time. I can't do it without Him!! So, today I finally took the plunge and got my goodies out and I was able to put some things together.
Here's
This month, it's all about being interactive! Show us how you take your cards to the next level, whether you have received your Movers & Shakers dies, or you're just inspired to create a pop up or swinging card without them. There are so many options for this theme, and we can't wait to see what you have to share!
and here's my take on the challenge:
I used Verve New Mercies Stamps on the inside of the card. It was the perfect sentiment for how I am feeling today! Peace in the midst of the storm...it's a comforting feeling!!
The colors for today's project were inspired by the challenge over at The Shabby Tea Room #102!
