Sting My Heart QP

I have worked on my second kit over the past two weeks and I am about to release it here at my blog. I have called this kit ‘Sting My Heart’ 😛 . Although I created the kit with Valentines Day in mind, I made sure that you can use the kit all year around.

The kit will be free, so make sure that you come back to get the entire kit. I plan on up-loading the kit tonight (Tuesday), so it will be ready to download for you all tomorrow. But for now you can pick up the Sting My Heart QP here (including my TOU with commercial credits). I hope you will like it.

Have a blessed day in the Lord…

Thankful Thursday ~ All About Grace

“For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them. ~ Ephesians 2:8-10 (ESV)

Before I share my thankfulness with you this week, I would like to thank Crystal, Laurel and Lynn for hosting Thankful Thursday for me the past 3 months. Wow – the time went fast. I am glad to be back blogging. I missed it, but also got some things cleared up in my hear about blogging…

Second, I want to announce the winners of my little impromptu giveaway of the “Iris Kit” designed by Michelle Pieters. The winners are Josie (2BoysMom) and Denise Walden. Congratulation Ladies – I will send the gift certificates tonight to you so you can purchase the kit at Gotta Pixel.

Now to my short thankful list this week: All About Grace (grace is defined as ‘unmerited favor’ either of God or from one to another. Isn’t His grace beautiful?

  • I am thankful that He was pierced for my transgressions. That His grace saved me – not for what I have done, but what He has done at the cross…
  • I am thankful with a dear friend of mine. I just love when God shows up when we least expect it. The joy is indescribables…
  • I am thankful that God allows me to share what He has done for me and that it sometimes touches someone. Thank You, Lord…
  • I am thankful that His grace is never-ending. I have messed up so many times in my life – big and small, He still loves me…
  • I am thankful for the times my friend have extended grace to me over the years…
  • I am thankful that my Sweetheart extends grace when I mess up things or just plain forget. I can’t believe that he has stuck with me for almost 25 years…

What are you thankful for this week, my dear friend? Please do share with us. As your time permits, please visit others on the list below as they are sharing their grateful heart.

Thank you for stopping by today. I want to close with Paul’s words in his letter to the Corinthians:

‘The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.’

Wow – I am Honored

Iris Kit

As some of you know, I am really into digi-scrapping. Why you might ask? Well, most of the photos of our son’s baby photos are collecting dust in a box. I started digi-scrapping last year which is really a wonderful tool to preserve memories (you can save the LO’s on DVD’s).

I also have been working with a wonderful designer from New Zealand. Over the past 5 months I have learned so much from her. I am forever grateful for that. Well, long story short, Michelle created a kit from a color scheme I had submitted to her and named the kit after me 😛 . Don’t you just love what she came up with? I do!!!! The coolest news – the kit you see above is on sale in Michelle’s Gotta Pixel store until November 15th! Head on over and check out the details on the kit.

I would love to share this kit with you and decided to purchase two $5 gift-certificates from Gotta Pixel. Please leave me a note in the comment section (with a valid email address to send the certificate to). You have until Wednesday, January 16th to sign up for the impromptu giveaway. I will announce the two winners on Thankful Thursday.

Have a blessed weekend….

LO was created by me with scrap material by Connie Prince

I have decided to share once in a while with you a digital LO I have created. This really has become something that I like to do to relax AND finally do something with the hundreds of pictures I have stored in boxes. Most of the layouts I will share are scanned pictures, but I think it is a great way to preserve them. Better than collecting dust in a box 😉 . I love the photo of Daniel having the huge headphones on. Love the little smirk too…

Have a wonderful and blessed Monday…
