Wow! Can you believe it?! 300 challenges now have taken place at <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a>! Woohoo! I'm so thankful for all those who have participated over the years to make <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday </a>what it is today. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The verse for this week is a verse that I've actually memorized. I'm terrible at memorizing verses. I didn't grow up in a Christian home and never had the opportunity to memorize verses as a child. It's much more difficult to memorize anything as an adult, but there are a few verses that I've worked hard to commit to memory and this week's verse is one of them. </div>

Yep, this is definitely an area of my life that needs constant work, especially within the walls of my own home. I often pray for God to work this verse out in my own life. I desperately want to be in obedience when it comes to what God has to say about my speech. </div>

Once again, I've used paper from the Paper Studio's Bohemian Vibes line. I fussy cut a couple of the larger flowers from my 12x12 pack to add a little dimension. Then, I embellished with a strip of lace and a wood veneer heart, also from the Paper Studio. </div>

Hi, Y' all! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've said it before and I'll say it again. There is just something special about making cards for <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday. </a> I've found that on more than one occasion the verse for the week really speaks to my heart, or seems to be just what I've needed to hear. For example, I've been going through some rough waters lately, so I began a Bible study that focuses on allowing God to use the trials in our lives to refine us and produce a faithful endurance in our hearts. Then, along comes the Word Art for this week's challenge...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh4vLvfM6bI8YAfRtg2eLP7iFZ8P6KzcAM9SnVPR9F6BFZs45MZoirC_E8JFVeWRgiKFToXFF3mE6MGLKr0KlCAbKkHfQgmAWYrHEkVGXO7U1TOiAq_ar2khdDVPNcumz270u4p14JZOX4X/s1600/Aug+30th+WAW-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Misty D.

<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How fitting is this verse? Exactly what I need to be reminded of. My God does not waste anything, I know that even the trials of life are being used for my good, and are all part of His perfect plan. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The verse served as the inspiration for all the gold accents on my card. I heat embossed gold scroll accents to each corner and used a gold polka dot washi tape to adhere the vellum. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The paper is once again from <a href="http://mochadoodledesigns.blogspot.com/2017/08/bohemian-card-for-word-art-wednesday.html">The Bohemian Vibes </a>paper line that I purchased last time I went to Hobby Lobby. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lastly, I added some Nuvo Crystal Drops in Raspberry Pink and a wood veneer heart which is so common to many of <a href="http://mochadoodledesigns.blogspot.com/2017/07/my-scraplifted-card-for-word-art.html">my projects</a>. I really like hearts. :) </div>

Hi, Y'all!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm so excited to share my <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> card design with you! I'm just really excited about this one. You see, it isn't often that I buy new paper. I've got plenty in my stash and even though most of the paper lines I own are at least 5 years old, I just can't justify spending the money on new paper. However, when I saw The Paper Studio's new Bohemian Vibes paper line, I was smitten. So, without further adieu, I'll just show you the first card I've made using this gorgeous paper line. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Isn't it pretty?! Get used to seeing lots from this paper line in the coming months, because I can't seem to get enough of it. After <a href="http://mochadoodledesigns.blogspot.com/2017/08/my-colorful-crazy-card-for-word-art.html">last weeks card</a> mishap, it felt good to get back into my crafty groove. :) </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Even the Word Art seemed to match the bohemian feel of this paper line. And how much I love this verse, wow! Just let it sink in, mull it over in your mind and tell me if it doesn't transform your thinking in some way. God's word is amazing because God is amazing!</div>

Hi, Y'all!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm not sure what got into me today, but I must have been in a mood. My card design for <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday </a>is not my usual style. You know, soft, pale colors, pinks, and blue hues.... I think I went a little crazy with the colors and the glue. </div>

I even took the pics differently. I was really feeling it this morning, but hmmm, not so much now. It just kind of looks like my craft room threw up onto my card base. bleh. Oh-well, sometimes that's just how it goes in the craft room. I feel like I should share some sort of metaphor for life here, but na...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm so glad that God is not moody and inconsistent like me. I could never place my trust in a God who is like that. </div>

My God is Faithful, consistent, not ruled by moods or changing seasons. His plans will be accomplished and His ways are perfect. The best part is, I belong to this God! This God sees me and hears me, all because of what Jesus did on the cross for me and for anyone who desires to follow after Him. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
AWESOME! </div>

Hi Everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm excited to share my latest <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> design with you all today, because it's a little different from my usual. I was really stuggling this week with my creative mojo, I just couldn't seem to come up with anything. So, what do I do when I'm low on the creative juices and need ideas? I scraplift! (at least that's what I think it's called) I have my favorite designers whom I borrow ideas from. My designs never turn out just like theirs, but that's the point. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
For my card design this week, I scrapliftted from the talent <a href="http://michellewooderson.blogspot.com/2015/03/using-mixed-media-on-cards.html">Michelle Wooderson</a>. You can see the original design on her blog <a href="http://michellewooderson.blogspot.com/2015/03/using-mixed-media-on-cards.html">"Mish Mash"</a> She is one of my favorite designers. I just love her relaxed yet clean style. I often browse her blog for inspiration when I'm plumb out of ideas. </div>

Michelle used modeling paste on her card, I didn't have that so I used Gesso mixed with white acrylic paint. I love the texture this created by just spreading it onto my paper. I think the white color is a perfect pairing under my verse which speaks of our sins not being remembered. It just makes me think of my sins being blotted out. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And, Yes, once again I'm using paper and embellishment from My Minds Eye. I'd venture say that at least 80% of my craft room supplies are My Minds Eye. The paper is from the Vintage Charm 12x12 pack and the enamel heart and dots are also from My Minds Eye. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just can't seem to get enough of their product. :) </div>

Hi! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope you all had a wonderful Independence Day! I know that I did! Independence Day is one of my favorite holidays. I love celebrating the birth of our nation and all that comes along with that. We truly are blessed! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
That leads me to this week's Word Art Wednesday Card. I used classic Americana elements to design my card, although it's not your typical patriotic colors. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I guess I kinda went for that vintage American look, oh, and stars upon stars. 🌟</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used a very old paper line from My Minds Eye. I'm not sure if it's even available for purchase anymore, but it's called "Blink of an Eye". I've kinda been hoarding this paper, it has an all-American, vintage summertime feel to it. I embellished using some bronze star stickers from Jolee's that I purchased at Micheal's. I added a strip of gold washi tape across the bottom and cut a piece of burlap doily to finish it off.</div>

I think you can see the bronze and gold a little more in this picture. I also glued a wood veneer star to one of the bronze stars, just to add a little more texture. </div>

Hi, everyone!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, I'm suffering from what I think is writer's block today. I literally sat staring at the screen for a good ten minutes trying to think of something to write, anything.... sadly, nothing! So, I'll just hop right into sharing my card design for <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a>. </div>

I used paper from My Minds Eye C'est Chic collection. It looks like more of a blush color in person. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I printed the verse onto vellum and cut it the exact size as the stripe on my base paper. The vellum strip is wrapped around the base paper then adhered on the backside with Scotch tape. I tore some strips of arrow paper, also from the same paper line and machine stitched it to the base paper. I then gold embossed some little wooden hearts from The Paper Studio and adhered them to my card. That's it! Vellum can be a little tricky to work with. I'm still fairly new at creating with it and I hope to learn more techniques. It can be so pretty.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just love the way the gold shines on this paper too... </div>

Welcome back! It's officially my first week of summer break and what better way to start it off then with a new <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> card. Woohoo! I just love summer, the early mornings and late nights. The birds, the flowers, the free time to enjoy God's creation. I'm truly a summertime girl at heart. I must be excited about this time of year as my card creation reflects where my favorite place to be is. Can you guess? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
If you guessed the beach, then you would be right. 😊</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But even with all that I love about summer and all there is to enjoy and be thankful for, I'm still left with a longing that nothing on this earth can satisfy. An emptiness only Christ Himself can fill. I'm reminded of a quote from the late C.S. Lewis. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"<i style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I have found a desire within myself that no experience in this world can satisfy; the most probable explanation is that I was made for another world."</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><br /></i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We were made to "worship and enjoy God forever". Praise God that He has promised to fill us up with what truly satisfies, HIMSELF. </div>

The base paper for my card is from Hobby Lobby's brand of paper products called "The Paper Studio". It's from their "mint to be fab" line. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Then I added stickers from my stash. I kept it pretty simple this week. </div>

Hi, Friends!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Welcome back. Yes, once again I'm jumping in late for <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday.</a> I really don't know if I will ever get better at this blogging thing. I have so many cards to share you with you all, but it just seems like I never get around to the blogging part of things. At least being part of the <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday </a>design team keeps me consistent at something. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my design for this challenge:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My design is fairly simple, as I wanted the Word Art to be the star of the show. I just printed the Word Art onto my card base, then I stamped around it. (I used the same stamp technique that I used <a href="http://mochadoodledesigns.blogspot.com/2017/01/psalm-1211-2-word-art-wednesday-card.html">here</a>, and I think it turned out much better.) I colored my stamped images using Ranger distress inks and a water pen. I added some Martha Stewart fine glitter to the butterfly and flower. Lastly, I embellished with a strip of washi tape across the top, a paper flower, and an enamel heart from MME. </div>

Hello, Y'all! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope this post finds you all doing well and staying sane. I know I'm going just a little bit crazy over here. Things have been so busy that I feel like I'm treading water. Thankfully, I belong to the God who can walk on water and the winds and waves obey His voice. Honestly, what more do I need? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And then, there are His promises. I personally cling to the promise He has made to never leave me. That brings me to our <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> verse and my card design:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

Word Art Wednesday#282-283" /></a></div>
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
Isn't this such a precious promise? God's promises are true. He can never break them, He does not grow weary. We can rest and trust in Him!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh, how I thrive on this truth. When my life is like a crazy whirlwind and I don't know what I'm doing from one moment to the next, I can always trust in what God has said in His word. That is my constant hope. </div>

I used MME the sweetest thing/tangerine papers for my card. I love this paper line and have actually almost exhausted my supply. eek!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I fussy cut some flowers from the same papers and adhered them using foam dimensional tape. I added a strip of lace and a couple of enamel dots for texture. </div>

Psalm 5:11 Word Art Wednesday Challenge<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh, My! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I almost forgot to post today! My apologies for the lateness of this post. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I just want to invite you all to play along in this week's <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday </a>challenge. </div>

The verse for this challenge comes to us from the Psalms. Always a great choice, the Psalms are like a healing balm for the soul. Sometimes when I'm struggling to read from God's word, I just go to Psalms and I'm once again filled with awe at the character of my God. </div>

Here is my card design:</div>

I love that this verse reminds us that the source of our Joy is Christ Himself. Not our circumstances, or our performance or the stuff we have or don't have. </div>

I chose to use Pink Paislee paper from the Citrus Bliss line. I've been using this line a lot lately. It's just so bright and cheerful. Perfect for this verse. I fussy cut the lemons and added a little distress glitter to the tops. I then adhered them using foam dimensional squares. </div>

Hi There, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Welcome back. I've been a little MIA lately. I'm hoping that with summer break right around the corner that I'll be able to stop in more frequently. But then again, I've said that before. Haha, that's why I so appreciate those of you who keep coming back, it's for you that I continue to share my craft and my heart. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Word Art for this challenge is found in John 12:23. </div>

In the context this verse is found, Jesus is referring to the hour of His death on the cross. But how can glory be found in such a terrible death such as what Christ experienced? Because in that moment Christ defeated death, the power of sin, and became our once for all sacrificial lamb! Christ in that moment finished what He had come to do. Oh, the beautiful, terrible cross. Such a seeming contradiction, but all part of God's perfect plan of redemption. </div>

Hi! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh, where to begin? For starters, I will just say that this week being only half over has really been a struggle for me. It has been full of conflicts, temptations, tears, and sin. Yes, sin. I have failed miserably and have not handled what has come my way with grace. I can honestly say that I was not feeling very creative this week and that my card probably reflects that. Just keeping it real, this is not one of my favorites,</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<i>but this verse...</i></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had not had a chance to view the <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> for this week until yesterday when I began to make my card. When I pulled it up on my computer, I was overwhelmed. It is exactly what I needed to be reminded of with the week that I've had. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
"And <i>God</i> shall wipe away <i>all</i> tears from their eyes". Just let that thought sink in! Whoa! I don't know what else to say. The overwhelming gratitude of what this verse means leaves me speechless! I am not deserving for God to promise any of this to me and yet He has. This verse is referring to what it will be like in Heaven, in the presence of our Great God. He has promised this end to all who have put their trust in Him. I'm so thankful for this hope because bad days will happen and I will fail, but His promises remain true!</div>

I used my Taylored Expressions Arbor Accessories stamp to create the background for my card. I stamped, then heat embossed the gold. I then watercolored pink over the entire background and watercolored the green leaves. I used a sharpie pen to draw the leaves. I was really wanting to try out this technique, but I'm not happy with how it looks with this particular card. I think I will try it again later with a different style of card. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Hello again, Welcome back. I'm so honored to have so many of you visit to share in my love of creativity. I'm also honored to part of the wonderful <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> design team. Karen works so hard to keep the challenge blog going and to line up sponsors who so generously share their product with us and the challenge winners. This week's sponsor is Taylored Expressions! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not only does the winner of this week's challenge get a prize from Taylored Expressions, but the design team also received product from Taylored Expressions to create with. I was so excited to get started with my Taylored Expressions product. I've never used TE products before, but as a first timer, I am in love!</div>

For my card, I used two different die cutting plates from Taylored Expressions. "Frame in Frame 2" is the cutting plate that I used to create the scalloped border around the Word Art. I also used the "Arbor Accessories" cutting plate to cut the vine and small flowers on my card. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the Taylored Expressions cutting plates in my Cuttle Bug Machine. The cutting plates worked very well with my machine and only needed a few passes to achieve a clean, sharp cut. I love the detail of the cuts, even on the small flowers. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I actually cut the end off the vine to create more of a curled vine around the Word Art rather than to have it in the shape of an arbor, as it originally was. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I adhered the vine using very small pieces of dimensional foam tape. I wanted it to be slightly raised. I also added some distress glitter to the flowers and a pearl drop to the centers. </div>

Hi There! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm back once again for another <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a>. I'm so glad to have had the respite of crafting a card this weekend. This week has been very busy for me and feels like it's been so long already. I've been spending about 4hrs. a day studying for a business course that I'm taking. I'll be working 2 days this week at my daughter's school substitute teaching, and therefore I'm trying to quickly finish reading "To Kill a Mockingbird" to prepare. I feel worn out already... but what seems hard for me in my own strength is never too hard for my God! I'm so grateful for the reminder this week's word art has been to me. I'm constantly in need of being reminded of the promises of God and who God is. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The word art for this week is taken from Jer. 32:17. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my design:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Still feeling the inspiration of my <a href="http://mochadoodledesigns.blogspot.com/2017/02/layout-inspired-card-2.html">last post</a>, I chose to use the same paper line and color scheme. I even did some of the same watercolor splatters. I printed the verse onto vellum and just adhered at the end using the ric rac. Lastly, I added a few embellishments and I was done. </div>

A special shout out to my crafty friend Esther, who made the little yellow crochet hearts that are in my pics. She mailed them out to me last week and I can't wait to create with them. Stop by her blog, "Shoregirl's Creations" <a href="http://www.shoregirlscreations.com/">here</a>, she is currently offering some cute free printables of which I also can't wait to make use of. </div>

Hi there! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm so excited to be posting today because I wasn't really sure if this day would happen. Those of you who've been following my blog for awhile may remember my first Layout Inspired Card post. If not, feel free to take a look <a href="http://mochadoodledesigns.blogspot.com/2016/05/layout-inspired-hello-there-card.html">here</a>. At the time I had hoped to start a series, and regularly share cards with you all that were inspired by layouts I'd found on Pinterest. But, as life got busy, it seemed that the series wouldn't happen. Soooo, that's the reason for my excitement today. After all this time, I'm here to share my 2nd, Layout Inspired Card!!! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I feel like I can now really call it a series. haha!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The layout that inspired my card today was designed by the talented Missy Whidden.<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3wAJXfGknQSVVedovDXhX2VNXX5MLR1aG4iPxmSxLrMMHPgnT2KneHnnT7KbzOsJsQYY-CcX3IWQwuO2nhiPHWucdjKkha2qg3LoD_vHCRusvHPJXyXg1pNztPWu5lok1Xxpajeiel85j/s1600/LeafHunt0.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="633" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg3wAJXfGknQSVVedovDXhX2VNXX5MLR1aG4iPxmSxLrMMHPgnT2KneHnnT7KbzOsJsQYY-CcX3IWQwuO2nhiPHWucdjKkha2qg3LoD_vHCRusvHPJXyXg1pNztPWu5lok1Xxpajeiel85j/s640/LeafHunt0.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I couldn't seem to find the original link to this layout, but you can visit Missy's blog, Little Nugget Creations <a href="http://littlenuggetcreations.blogspot.com/">here</a>. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Missy used paper on her layout from Pink Paislee's Citrus Bliss line. I have this paper line in a 6x6 pad and thought it would be perfect for a card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my layout inspired card:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijkLQY3r77oY89T4QU5x9ZOtOlBZiwdpFhftUfm4L3JlRYWdgtkpoNgHRsC0kp8HsVqytfR8QysnlpRTdo4c2XavbeXXxYRu2ldjl2tlqno124a2uVBmJ2bsp1phVET1JAzp9EvUT2buIR/s1600/_MG_8296-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Misty D.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the same color scheme and papers as Missy did, but instead of leaves I chose to use feathers. I die cut my feathers using a MME "niche On Trend" die cut plate. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also die cut my scalloped frame using my Taylored Expressions cutting plate. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I added some water colored paint splatters to mimic some of the details on Missy's layout. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsE-CzqLChd4vbhJgRAlXABuj-1aJ7-RLbTD5L9NTMO3Wyx0BZ1JGar9YUYW66pJEUX1LKPp5SfmADs5NcxOKZkA8oYjzWTbfo2n-kEBxrPNWGk3rhNKQdGPNUd_m0RXPADU-2hWwh33p-/s1600/_MG_8299-2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Misty D.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I adhered my die cut feathers using foam dimensional tape. I also added sewing thread and gold sparkle enamel hearts to pick up a few more elements from Missy's layout. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lastly, I used my "thanks" stamp also from Taylored Expressions. I gold embossed it and adhered it with dimensional tape. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is one of my favorite ways to get ideas for a card. I encourage you to give it a try for yourself and let me know if you do. I'd love to see what you come up with and the layouts that inspire you. </div>

Word Art Wednesday Card for February 1st<div style="text-align: center;">
Welcome back for another <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a>! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm so excited to share this weeks card with you all. The verse comes from my favorite chapter in the Bible and the theme allowed me to play with papers using some of my favorite colors. I just had so much fun with this one! </div>

What a fitting verse for this time of year. The word "charity" in this verse means love. The love this verse speaks of is not a mushy, euphoric feeling such as the world would think of love. This is a self-sacrificial love that is only found in Jesus. He is our perfect example of that love lived out, and He paid the ultimate price to make us a partaker of His love. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Only Christ could love us this much! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hi, Y'all!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Welcome back to another <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a>! Our verse for this week is Psalm 121:1-2.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had some fun this week trying my hand at stamping. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You've probably noticed from the cards I share here, that I don't do much stamping. I'm always admiring other creatives stamped cards and all the pretty ways that they come up with to use stamps/ink. So I decided to take the plunge and give it a try on my <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> card for this week. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGkGIvTK_qhwvLAh0mbo6HC-HmT_BE36fVdB8hhZJISXYGnv9sp1G0lr4MFb7G4nr4fYWi9RegZq7zMtWorn-jHMXgkgDUk6LoYKaZ0jlsHfsY2s1zMABgATHBv_dJp1G35EI7EVc03_q1/s1600/WAW+Jan+18th-1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Misty D.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't say that this is my favorite card, but overall not too bad for my first stamped card. ;) I had a lot of fun making this card and I would really like to get better at stamping and continue to learn new techniques. I encourage you to also step out of your crafty comfort zone this year and try something new. </div>

Hello!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm so excited to be back sharing my first card of 2017! Literally, I made this card on Jan. 3rd! How awesome is that? haha! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
No, really, I'm just so glad to be back. Back to blogging, back to card making, back to being a full-time mom and wife. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While I'm so appreciative of all that I learned while working for a local photography company, I'm glad to be finished working for them, at least for now. I realized how much I love being a stay at home mom and running my household. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I also missed running my own little side business. Whether blogging, creating cards to sell, or shooting my own photography sessions. I missed all of it. So, believe me when I say that I'm glad to be back, and even more happy to be back with a Word Art Wednesday card. How fitting that a <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> card should be my first card of 2017.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Ps. 107:2, such simple and yet profound verse. As I think on this verse I'm reminded of what the goal of my life is to be, what the goal of this year should be, to bring honor and glory to my Saviour. What better way to do that, than to tell of how He redeemed me! </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
"Redeemed, Redeemed, Redeemed by the blood of the lamb"! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, I am redeemed by the precious blood of Jesus and because of that I am His! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And you can be too! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Jesus died for all who would put their complete trust in Him alone. Not in their good works, but in Him alone. Trusting that it is He who has redeemed you from the power of your sin, and it's wages. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I will say so, Yes, I am redeemed by Jesus Christ's finished work on the cross. I can not redeem myself, Jesus did it all for me. My sin debt has been paid! Yes, I will say so...</div>

Hi everyone! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've been MIA for quite some time now. I've started working for a local photography company and between my new job, my daughter's school activities, church ministries, and just trying to maintain somewhat of a liveable home, the blog, of course, fell to the way-side. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But, I'm so glad to be back to share the latest <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> design with you all. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The verse for this week is such a reminder to me that God is never too busy for us and He will never allow His children to fall by the wayside. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my card:</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm so glad and thankful that God willingly gave His only son that I and all those who place their complete trust in Him may have life. Eternal Life!</div>

Hi everyone, </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm back to share my newest <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> card design. I'm a little late in getting this out due to a having had a massive migraine the last couple of days. But with that being said, I'm so thankful to be back and to have the blessing of creating in my craftroom using Karen's beautifully designed word art. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is my card:</div>

Yep, it's that time again! I'm so grateful that it's Wednesday. It has seemed to be a very intense week thus far, and I'm really looking forward to seeing some good friends of ours this weekend. I'm even more grateful that this Wednesday just happens to be <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday!</a> You knew that. I mean why else would I blog. haha.....

Isn't this just such an encouraging verse?! I'm so glad that my God knows all, that there is none like Him. None can know His thoughts. That's why I made a card using a sky/cloud theme. This verse just reminds me that God is above all, so the theme just sort of worked with what I was thinking about God. </div>

The paper that I chose for my card is DCWV Sunday Afternoon stack. I fussy cut the clouds from the same paper that I used as my base. I then layered them using foam dimensional tape. lastly, I added a hot air balloon sticker from Echo Park, some enamel dots from MME, some twine at the top and Nuvo crystal drops in Robins Egg Blue around the edge of the verse. </div>

Well, Hello there!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope my post today finds you all doing well, thriving right where God has you, and at peace with whatever He has ordained for your life at this time. I say that as I pray those very words for myself. I desperately want to keep a quiet heart that is reliant upon Him to carry me through whatever He has planned for me. I admittedly don't do a very good job of that and must keep going back to the "throne of Grace" crying out for more of Him. I'm so prone to wander and it's so easy to listen to the voices of worldly wisdom rather than to what my God has clearly said in His word. That brings me to this week's Word Art Wednesday Card.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhN0FIiEgXAdAiskxedwEnzKFn7erV_zdD9wxkhnyKEV2f7sX7FOw1D-stk7sbIHPcEkArBkXNoAASQcGEeB1otBBW8uBtot3ERnu7lKj3UiMv72wgfjQfSRHNck_3vIlvBaj4aRdSbF-0M/s1600/oct+12th+card.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Misty D.

<div style="text-align: center;">
I do apologize for the very bad photo. It's been dark and rainy here, so I ended up taking my picture using a desk lamp. But at least the verse is clear and that's what it's all about! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This week's verse is such a reminder to me to be careful about where I'm looking for wisdom/direction in life. True wisdom is found only in God, and He promises to give it to those who ask. (see James 1:5) </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's also a reminder to me to ask for that wisdom "early" . Why is it that we tend to go to God last? I'm so guilty of doing this. I'll ask my husband, friends, or family before seeking God. It should be God first, or as this verse would say it "early". I'm so glad to have made this a card this week using the Word Art Wednesday verse, I really needed this reminder. </div>

Haha, you can totally see the light from my desk lamp in the corner of this picture. I thought it looked kinda cool though. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For this week's card I used paper from My Minds Eye and Simple Stories. I fussy cut some flowers from the MME paper and added some black Martha Stewart micro beads to the centers. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lastly, I added some Doodle Bug Designs sequins. </div>

Yep, you all know it's that time again for another <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a>! Lately, that seems to be all I'm sharing. Now, mind you, I'm not complaining about that. I'm so thankful to be a part of the <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday </a>design team. I just know that with how busy I've been, I wouldn't make time to craft at all if it weren't for my commitment to this team. I tend to put everything else first, I tell myself that I'll get time to craft later. Once later rolls around, I'm usually too tired. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With that being said, I'm so grateful to get the chance to make at least a few cards a month. And what better way to spend my craft time then to create using beautifully designed Word Art. I'm always so inspired to create and thankful to meditate on the meaning of God's word. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I encourage all you card makers out there to come join in the challenge. Our challenges are always "anything goes" and you're not required to use the Word Art to participate. </div>

I just love this verse! This is such a faith-affirming verse! To <i>know</i> what my God has said will be done, what He has decreed will happen, and His word will never change. God is not fickle about what He has said... therefore He is a God I can completely trust! </div>

I went for the girly, vintage look with this card. I guess not creating for awhile made me want to use a lot of my goodies. :) </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The flowers used here are from the Recollections line at Micheal's Craft Store and The Paper Studio line from Hobby Lobby. The Pearls are from Prima Marketing. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used papers both from My Minds Eye and DCWV. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The lace trim is found in dollar bins at Micheal's Craft Store and I think that's where I got the resin flower as well. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lastly, I finished the card by adding Nuvo Crystal drops around the edge of the ornate frame. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was so nice to get back in my craft room, and I had so much fun making this card. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you for stopping by to take a look today, I hope you've learned a little about my God and have been inspired to go create for the King of Kings. </div>

Welcome! It's time for <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> # 248-249!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You all know how much I love making pretty things for <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a>. It truly is one of the most rewarding design teams to be a part of. Karen works so hard to keep this challenge blog going. I don't know how she does it. I can hardly find the time to keep this little blog going. I'm really going to try to post more often. I have so many ideas of things that I'd like to share with you all. Hopefully soon, but until then, I'm going to keep enjoying <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> and I'm thankful for the fact that, at least for now, designing for <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday</a> is what is getting me in my craft room! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here is the card I made for this week.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had a lot of fun with this card. I used lots of textures on this card, between the burlap, vellum, lace and sequins, it's all there! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once again, my color palette was inspired by the fall colors right outside my window. I just love this time of year. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the same Hiedi Swapp Vellum that I used on these <a href="http://mochadoodledesigns.blogspot.com/2016/08/proverbs-24-3-4-cards-for-word-art.html">two cards seen here.</a> I think vellum will be making a regular appearance around here, it's just so versatile. I know I've only scratched the surface of what can be done with it. I chose, this time, to use a border punch on the vellum, I then used dimensional foam tape to adhere the vellum to the card base. (it's hiding under the flower stickers) . I also once again used my Nuvo Crystal drops only, this time, I used the color raspberry pink. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

And once again, another precious verse from God's word. Aren't they all precious?! What an awesome thing to be reminded of, that even the mountains and the hills will not continue on as long as our God's promise of peace and mercy to His children. That is just so encouraging to me as I sit and meditate on this verse! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'd love to have you join the challenge at <a href="http://wordartwednesday.blogspot.com/">Word Art Wednesday </a>this week. I enjoy seeing all of your creativity. I don't always get a chance to comment on all the cards, but please know that I love to have you all play along. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Word Art is free to use, but you're not required to use it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you for stopping by today and for your sweet words of encouragement. I hope you've been inspired to go create for the King today!</div>
