30 Days Give Thanks: Day 19

IMG_3453.JPG

Today, I give thanks for Jesus, my Lord, my savior. He is the true vine, source of abundance life. I am forever thankful for every pruning season in my life for He cares and loves those who trust in Him. Apart from Him I can do nothing.

“I AM the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser. Every branch in me that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit. Already you are clean because of the word that I have spoken to you.

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.

I AM the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” (John 15:1-5)

In whom or what do you abide today?

Gold, Silver, One Layer Card

I cannot believe that Thanksgiving is approaching fast!!! I hope you all are ready for this special day. Today, I would like to share a quick Thanksgiving card I created. I am inspired by Virginia’s View Challenge #9 this month:

So many gorgeous pictures for inspirations, aren’t they? And I decided to go with one layer with gold and silver embossing only. A quick and simple Thanksgiving card.

I arranged the leaves from Thankful Heart stamp set (B1463) on 3″ x 3″ My Acrylix® Block and stamped them using VersaMark ink pad (Z891) randomly on the card. Then I added some Ranger Gold Embossing Powder (Z2066). Then heat set it using Craft Heater (Z555). After that, I stamped the sentiment using VersaMark ink pad (Z891) and added some Ranger Silver Embossing Powder (Z2067). I heat set it.

I love the metallic looking!

Inside the card, I added a piece of copy paper that I folded into two and used Scallop Border punch (Z1851) to punch the edge. I added it inside layer using adhesive in the middle of the card. Then stamped the Happy Thanksgiving from Thankful Heart set (B1463) using Autumn Terracotta Exclusive Ink Pad (Z2101).

I am so thankful for Fall/Autumn. A season of thanksgiving.

A season for farmers to harvest their crops.
A season to thank God for his provisions in our lives through the year.

Thanking God for this special month!

30 Days Give Thanks: Day 17

Today, I thank God for my sisters. They fill my heart!

They are sweet.
They are crazy.
They are goofy.
They are my sisters.

We smiled together.
We laughed together.
We cried together.

I remember our days were filled with so many memories.

Oh I miss them a lot! It’s been 4,5 years since last time see each other. Though they are far away, but always close in my heart, thoughts and prayer.
