Today is the day we have been waiting for… It is the Love God Greatly Bible Launch Day!!!

It is such an honor to be part of this Bible project with Love God Greatly and Thomas Nelson Bibles. I cannot explain and describe the feeling I have right now… grateful… joyful… excited…!

THE HEART BEHIND THIS PROJECT

The heart of Love God Greatly is and always will be to guide women all around the world into a deeper understanding of God’s Word. We want to break down financial and language barriers in achieving this goal because we believe that when women are equipped to know and love God’s Word, they are empowered to live out the Gospel and share it with others. And that is also the heart behind the Love God Greatly Bible!

Over two years in the making, this beautiful Bible was created in partnership with Thomas Nelson Bibles and it embodies the heart of Love God Greatly.

The Love God Greatly Bible is in the NET translation and features a visually stunning design coupled with encouraging, inspirational content:

  • 66 Hand Drawn Memory Verses
  • 66 Book Introductions
  • 66 Testimonies From Around The World
  • 50 New Reading Plans
  • Reflection Questions
  • Challenges
  • OVER 160 Devotions
  • 8 Custom Designed Maps

Today you can get The Love God Greatly Bible and the journal book at:

When you purchase a Bible and the journal book (or 2, or more) today, you are partnering with Love God Greatly to provide Bible study journals for many women around the world in their heart languages for free!!! Also, you are supporting the 35+ language teams to serve as translators with Love God Greatly Global.

Thank you for partnering with us to help spread the gospel of Jesus Christ around the world.

I got my Love God Greatly Bible and journal and you can watch the unboxing video above or on my YouTube channel.

I love how the Bible is designed! Each page I flipped is just beautiful. And I love the extra side margin space on each page, especially for people who love journaling and Bible journaling out there! This extra space means place to pour out our love to His word in artistic way.

The journal book is amazing, too! I love how the paper is so thick and has plenty of space to write each lesson I will learn every day. One of my favorite parts is the Prayer pages. I can write down my prayer and date when it is answered. I can look back to this journal and praising God for His faithfulness! Also, this journal page is great for Bible Art Journaling.

I am looking forward go share more about this Bible and journal in the future. My prayer that God will also encourage you today as you read His Living Word every day.

Love God greatly,

Dare 2B Artzy October Challenge | Autumn Greetings Slimline Card

Hello hello hello everyone… Sending you all an Autumn greetings all the way from Ohio… Fall is in the air for sure becuase the leaves are changing colors and the weather is cooler.

There is a new challenge at Dare 2B Artzy blog today… You can guess the theme of this month. Yes… it is Fall theme!

I tried a new technique to me to create this slimline card. It is called Floating Die Cut. Many crafters used frame die to cut out a frame (like in this video) but I decided to leave it as is to get the full floating leaves background. I love how it turned out becuase it looks like Batik background.

To create that background, I cut out many leaves and acorns from this gorgeous Autumn Leaves Paper (it is also one of the patterned papers from the Harvest Collection Variety Pack) using the Fall Leaves Die.

The sentiment is from the Foxy Greetings stamp set that I stamped it with Eucalyptus Catherine Pooler Ink Pad on a white cardstock using Mini MISTI. And then I cut it into a sentiment banner using on of the label die from the Wavy Slimline Framelit Dies.

I added some iridescent sequins randomly in between the leaves for extra sparkly.

I hope you all can join the D2BA October Challenge. You can use any products on your NEW project, but when you use any D2BA products you will get second entry! You will have a chance to win a $15 Gift Certificate when you link up your project (max 3 projects, direct link to your blog post or project gallery, not the general link). Visit the D2BA blog for more detail. Most of all…. LET’S HAVE FUN!

Cannot wait to see your projects…. Thank you for stopping by my blog today. Have wonderful day!

STAMPlorations October Stencil Challenge | Thankful Coffee Card

Hello everyone… October is here!!! It is a new month and we have a new Stencil Challenge for you all.

STAMPlorations Stencil Challenge is always anything goes challenge which you can make any type of projects as long as you use stencils on it.

On my card today, I used the Brick Wall ARTplorations Stencil, Coffee Joy Stamp Set, Thankful Word Die.

I used Distress Oxide ink with the Brick Wall Stencil for the background. I added the inj with blending brush and the after that, I sprayed it lightly with water. I dabbed off the water with paper towel.

I dried the finished background panel with craft heater and trimmed it slightly smaller than the A2 card. I added it on the card with E-Z Runner Grand adhesive.

I stamped the floral cup with VersaMark ink on a watercolor paper and sprinkled it with some of the WOW! Fairy Tale Embossing Powder. After I tapped off the extra embossing powder, I heat it up with craft heater.

I colored the embossed image with Viviva Watercolor and water brush. This is one of my favorite watercolor paint! So vibrant and gorgeous colors.

I dried the watercolor paint with craft heater. And then, I fussy cut it with scissors. I added it on the card with permanent adhesive.

I cut out a piece of burlap cardstock using the word die. This is very thick cardstock so I had to run it through my die cutting machine several times. I added the burlap word on the card with permanent adhesive.

Final step, I added some white paint splatters on the card.

STAMPlorations is one of the Super Sponsors for the Coffee Loving Cardmakers – National Coffee Week Hop. Check out and come hopping along this week for amazing coffee inspiration and prizes!!!

It is another card I made for the National Coffee Week. On this card, I used the Brick Wall ARTplorations Stencil on the background, Zen Coffee Cup Layering Dies, and Just Caffeinate Clear Stickers. On those zen cups I added some DecoFoil Gold Foil Sheet with DecoFoil Foiling Glue Pen.
