"Congrats To The Graduates...It's Time To Dream"

Good Monday, May 13, 2019.
I hope all of the MOMs enjoyed their weekend.  You were treated with love, kindness and all kinds of good stuff during the celebration. 
My daughter and the grand came to visit and to have a sleepover.  This was so special to the granddaughter because she likes to snuggle under me and get all the attention.  I think it is okay with her mom.  This gives her a chance to relax and know that her child is being catered to, loved and  cared for without any worries.
Last weekend I thought I was going to get that seafood that I was craving.  It didn't happen until this weekend.  Good food and good company... I really enjoyed the pleasure.  Forget the diet and just go for it...and I did.
So many graduations occured this weekend.  High School and college.  Well on June 11th my granddaughter will be having a celebration leaving elementary and entering into middle school.  She expects her grandparents from both sides to attend. 
What exactly do we want all the graduates to do?  For the college ones...to dream of that job in which they have majored in for the last three to four years.  For the high school graduates...to dream of college life and all it entail.  For the middle schoolers...to dream of loving life while you are still young with so many opportunities ahead of you. Getting ready to maintain those grade point averages so they will help toward a college scholarship.
The card for all the graduates is here for your viewing:

'Wednesday Word Art"

Hello friends, followers, visitors and viewers.
First, I hope your Halloween went well.  You and your children were safe.   Some people didn't make it to the end of the day on yesterday.
We are praying for the families and people in NYC due to the tragedy that happened there.

Second, we welcome in the month of November.  There are so many things we will be looking forward to during this time:  the end of daylight saving time (this weekend); election day on the 7th; Veteran's Day on the 11th; my birthday on the 18th; Thanksgiving on the 23rd; and being a DT guest on the 24th.  Circle your calendar on the 18 and the 24....

I did another paper layering card today with the twist of adding a scripture and some other embellishments to go in my Bible Journaling notebook.  I hope you enjoy:

"Feathers...Real and Fake"

Thursday, March 16, 2017

Hello Everyone!
Today is St. Patrick's Day eve.  Are you Irish?  Do you enjoy the festivities that happens on St. Patrick's Day? 
When I worked with children in the school system, they would be so happy if you didn't have on any green for St. Patrick's Day.  This would give them a chance to "supposedly" pinch you (3rd graders).
I haven't made a card for this day and probably will not by tomorrow.  My thoughts are leaning a little towards using green on a card for tomorrow.  You and I will have to wait and see what happens.

Due to the snow that some of you had, our backyard was filled with birds that were trying to find food (lol). They flew in from your area to my backyard.   Lots and lots of birds. 
Guess where my inspiration came from for today...yes, those birds and their feathers.
Here is what I came up with in a short amount of time:

entry for www.wordartwednesday.blogspot.com

To keep up with my goals for 2017...make scripture cards or in this case a card for my bible journal group, I present to you my interpretation of God's provision using Psalm 91:4.  When I decided on using feathers, I also decided on using something from the Bible.
Psalm 91:4  HE WILL cover you WITH HIS feathers & UNDER HIS wings you WILL FIND refuge.
God is Good all the time!  All the time, God is Good!

 Here are some of the supplies I used. 
Spellbinders "feather" die; American Craft "premium ribbon"; Touch of Nature "feathers" and Sizzix Big Shot Machine.

From the National Day Calendar website, I'm participating in: NATIONAL EVERYTHING YOU DO IS RIGHT DAY...March 15th may have been a difficult day as it was National Everything You Think is Wrong Day, but March 16th is just the opposite as it is National Everything You Do is Right Day.  You get to feel good about everything that you do.
HOW TO OBSERVE
When you are right, you’re right.  There is no wrong way about it.  Take the good with the bad and a have a right kind of day.   Use #EverythingYouDoIsRightDay to post on social media.
Have a Safe, Legal and Fun Everything You Do Is Right Day.

Feathers, whether real or fake makes good embellishments on your cards.  Try using some on the ones you make.  When you are right, you're right with whatever you use (lol).

Thanks for viewing.  
Come Again!

Sending you a hug and LOVE,

Lois
