Joy of the Lord

"The joy of the Lord is your strength." Nehemiah 8:40

Prepare yourself for plenty of pink and some lovely vintage images because that’s what you’re going to find in the gallery of this week’s Christian Paper Crafts Wednesday CASE Artist Christine. Christine is from Sweden and her love of pink comes from the signature color of the beauty products she uses for her artistic work on the canvas of the female face. .

Christine started scrapping late in 2007 and quickly made the transition to card making. Though she now thinks of herself as a card maker, Christine has recently resumed scrapbook layouts. She also loves coloring images and using vintage images, and doesn’t limit her crafting to cards and scrapbook layouts, but ventures into the world of altered art as well.

Christine is a stay-at-home mom with three children: two young adults and one still in her early teens. She did work, but retired after two car accidents. Christine says, “After struggling 10 years, I finally accepted that I have forever lost my active life. Nowadays I do what I can do and am happy about it. The good thing is that I’ve learned to trust that no matter what happens, God is the one who will never give me up. I’ve learned that instead of stirring at what I can't, what I don't have and what I can't get, to be grateful for all I do have!”

Christine also has a reminder for all of us, “Please give praise to God for the wonders He does every day, every second in our lives. Pray that the Holy Spirit would guide us and help us to see all those small wonders that happen in our daily life and in our surroundings. Pray that our focus not be on our failures but on all the good things and gifts God have given and planned in our lives.”

Christine has a strong faith, which she says, “is not because of me, but because of Him. I find strength in Him, who is my Savior.”

CHALLENGE SPECIFICS
This is your invitation to join me in honoring Christine and to be inspired by her lovely gallery. So take a look through the gallery of Christine and create a card, scrapbook page or project inspired by what you see there. Be sure not to copy exactly: make it your own!

Grace for the Humble

"God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble." James 4:6

 Crafted for the Christian Paper Craft's Color Monday 114 Challenge. This peacock reminds me of a cartoon where one peacock says to another, "Why should I strut about? What do I have to be proud of; I didn't do anything to get these feathers?"  It's always a humbling reminder to me that everything we do have, every gift, every talent, has been given to us by our gracious heavenly Father. And it has been given to be used for His glory.  He despise the proud but gives grace to the humble. May He give grace that we might walk humbly before Him.

DETAILS
The main image panel on this card was a PAK (Providential Act of Kindness) from a dear CPC sister and after die cutting, I covered it with VersaMark and embossing powder to give texture and dimension.

The Western Way

The joy of the Lord is my strength. Nehemiah 8:40

 

The inspiration for this card was from (don't laugh) my new cowgirl boots and socks (yes. . they're pink!).

This is the second version. The first time, I got all the way to stamping the last image and. . .stamped it crooked. And I thought I was doing just fine with my free-hand stamping. Well, the Lord showed me that I needed to be guided and that I couldn't depend on myself. So out came the Stamp-a-ma-jig and the card went together like a dream.

I thought of how much like my own life that is. . .I think I'm doing just fine headed along, all in control of the situation and then the Lord is faithful to remind me that my heart is deceitful and though the way seems right to me, it is not. . .I need Him and the guidance and direction He provides through His unchanging, infallible Word.

The card is called, "The Western Way" because we out west have this rugged individualistic mind set . . . a mindset that can be quite opposed to "The Way" so we must be ever vigilant to conform our ways to His!

As the Lord uses the mistakes in our lives for His glory and our growth, I was able to use the first version for the inside of the card. . .a reminder that the sins of those trusting in Him, are covered! Thank you, Jesus!

She is also on the design team for CPC partner company, Our Daily Bread Designs, and she is an organizer extraordinaire, freely sharing her tips and techniques.

Patter loves the Lord and seeks to serve and honor Him in all that she does. She came to know Christ as her Lord and Savior through Bible Study Fellowship (BSF), so it is a ministry that is near and dear to her heart and one in which she serves in a leadership capacity helping others know and apply God’s Word. She and her husband have identical triplets, now in their teens and homeschooled by mom.  The household also include two Caiques parrots, Kiwi and Sugar--Patter’s “girls”-- and three Papillion pups.

Patter says, “Besides having a passion for the Lord and sharing Him with others, I am also passionate about paper crafting, and I love to help and share with other paper crafters.”

As to what she likes to do, Patter says, “I enjoy doing layouts of all sizes, cards, tags, ATCs, altered art, etc. And you will find that I stamp on almost all of my work. I love it all!”

Transformed. . .

I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship. Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Romans 12:1-2

For those in Christ, the image of God effaced at the fall is being restored and renewed by the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit made possible by the redemptive work of Christ according to the perfect plan of the Father. . .Praise God!

This card represents that image that is being restored or better, re-created. . as we are transformed through our sanctification that image, the likeness of God in his communicable attributes, becomes clearer and clearer. . .being perfected only when we reach our eternal home!

And the sanding of the card, like the trials of our lives, brings forth that image! (And that is why we are to rejoice in trials and consider them joy, though they are difficult and can be perplexing!)

If you look closely or click on the picture, you can see that one of the buttons has an anchor. . .that anchor is the Lord Jesus, the steadfast hope of our souls!

This was crafted for this week’s Christian Paper Crafts Clean and Simple Saturday Challenge CASS33 to “transform” a piece of designer or patterned paper any way you choose. It also meets the Color Monday CM113 (Nautical Living Room) and the Fun on Friday FOF109 (make your own designer paper) challenge.  Blessings!

Be Still and Know: He is God

"Be Still and Know that I am God." Psalm 46:10

When I saw this week's Christian Paper Craft's Bible Verse Thursday Challenge the image that came to mind was this gorgeous silhouette image from Angela at Toucan Scraps.

This card was crafted with Stampin' Up's My Digital Studio using elements from Toucan Scraps' Well Worn kit and is based on this week Christian Paper Craft's Sketch Tuesday Challenge 113 with a sketch from Gloria. A change in background papers produced a different look.

He is Able

He is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them. Hebrews 7:25

It only makes sense to quote a passage from Hebrews as the introduction to this week’s Christian Paper Crafts Wednesday Case Artist Traci S. Traci was raised Jewish, taught in the Jewish schools and at one point even wanted to be a Rabbi. The Lord had other plans, however; and opened Traci’s eyes to the see the glory of His Son and that indeed; Jesus is the promised seed, the Messiah, the son of David, the Deliver, and the Chosen One. And now her hope of heaven and the life to come rests solely in Him.

Though raised in a home where art abounded and an avid scrap booker for some 20 years, Traci has only been stamping about a year. She loves the color purple as it reflects royalty and majesty:  she is a daughter of the King, after all! She also loves butterflies as they symbolize the new creature, freed from the bondage of sin and raised to newness of life. Traci has a blog and has just celebrated her one year blog-a-versary, the name of her blog also corresponds to the Scripture: He is Able.

Traci and her husband have a blended family with four children and four grand-children. As part of her heritage, her dogs have all had Jewish holidays as part of their names because that is when they were rescued and came home to live with Traci.

Traci struggles with severe migraines that impair her vision and she has physical limitations as a result of debilitating injuries, nonetheless, she is joyful, enthusiastic and continues to craft cards to encourage others, serving the Lord with the gifts and talents He has given.

Or, as Traci says, “I have found my JOY in the Lord!  And, it fills me more than anything else could! Hallelujah!”

Challenge Specifics

This is your invitation to join me in honoring Traci S.. and to be inspired by her lovely gallery.

God is Our Refuge

Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for us. Psalm 62:8

Christian Paper Crafts WCA107 {06-08-11} Maxine D

This scripture seemed so fitting for this week’s Christian Paper Crafts Wednesday CASE Artist Maxine D, she knows that God is her refuge and the only One who can hear and answer prayer. The love of Christ is apparent in the way she reaches out to her friends, neighbors and acquaintances that are enduring trials, and in the way she intercedes in prayer. In fact, Maxine D is a relentless prayer warrior, and does not hesitate to enlist the aid of her sisters in petitioning our heavenly Father that He might hear and answer according to His perfect will.

She lives in New Zealand, has been married nearly 40 years to her wonderful husband. She is a full-time homemaker and helpmeet. Her adult children are happily married and have blessed Maxine D with two beautiful grandbabies (and you can know with certainty that they have plenty of sweaters and even a new pair of dungarees, thanks to her ability to sew and knit.)

She loves card making, embroidery, lacemaking and gardening. She also loves using different techniques on her cards and the more intricate the better, like paper quilling and stitching. Maxine says, “I am first and foremost a child of God. My whole life and testimony can be summed up in three words: God is Faithful!”

Bless His Holy Name!

Christian Paper Crafts Wednesday Case Artist WCA106 {6-1-11} Mom3

Bless the Lord, O my soul and all that is within me. Bless His holy name. Psalm 103:1

If you’re looking for this week’s Christian Paper Crafts Wednesday Case Artist, you’re going to need to get up early. . .many mornings you’ll find her in her favorite chair, with a cup of coffee and her Bible as she basks in the glow of the rising sun (and the Risen Son!). When she’s not there, it’s because she’s headed off for an early shift ministering as a nurse to those incarcerated at the county jail.

Our Wednesday CASE Artist, Mom3, is talented and resourceful, loves to re-purpose and to use innovative items in her projects. She is also very fond of textures and textiles. . .which is fitting for someone who has a loom in one room of her home. Not only is Robyn, as we all know her, a member of the Christian Paper Crafts Design Team, she is co-hostess of the Fun on Friday Challenge and hostess of the Scrap Your Heritage Scrapbook Challenge.

She also loves the textures of life. Robyn is an encourager and a nurturer and a true blessing from the Lord. Her gifts of mercy and encouragement shine brightly from frequent use. She says that her favorite areas of nursing “are the beginning and ending, while caring for people.” She and her devoted husband have grown children and grandchildren, and a newly-turned teenager, who is home-schooled--more easily some days than others, or so says his mom and teacher.

Robyn says, "I have no list of accomplishments in the paper crafting world, but am blessed beyond words to be able to participate here for this season in my life. God reveals some profound thoughts to me through Bible study and searching for just the right challenge. So with His wisdom in mind, I pray over each challenge offered for our membership at Christian Paper Crafts.”
