Di Hickman sketch for February
Di Hickman is doing her card sketches again! Yay! This time she's doing the once a month, so no panic if you don't get it done in the first week. It's a lovely adaptable one, great for using this stamped piece that I did a couple of weeks ago, check it out HERE. I've been inspired to do more stamping and colouring, particularly to use lots of stamps in a collage style on a piece of A6 card, then chop it up into smaller bits, then colour, paint and add gel pen afterwards. It's a really fun, creative and non pressured process.
SALT - Loving our Enemies
It was Pauline's turn to set the theme, please have a look HERE for her thoughts. It was a challenging one about what Jesus teaches about dealing with our enemies. I often find that it is when the people closest to you offend, that they are the hardest to forgive. However when I remember what Christ has done for me when I did not deserve it, this makes it easier to remember to love, and to put aside hurts. This verse in Proverbs sums this up perfectly.
The pink polka is some recycled packaging from some lovely mugs I had for Christmas, I couldn't bring myself to throw it away!
SALT - Walking through the valley...
It was Lythan's turn this week to set the theme. Although it is not something people like to think about it is never the less one of the topics that we need to face. Please read what she wrote here.
It just so happened that a friend asked me to make a card for her Gran, she wanted some words of encouragement for her as she has not been well.
SALT - Praying for Holiness
This took me much longer than I had intended!
When I saw Kim's challenge for Salt for the 6th (yes 6th!) of January, I had every intention of getting this finished. Finally posting it today. I've wanted to use this box that came in a Cosmo Cricket kit, with these lovely papers and chip board letters, for ages. The idea is that you can turn it to any side and have a sentiment to encourage.
Used my new leaf punches on this, love them!
