Project Life: Week 18

I'm not too crazy about this spread, but it's done.  Maybe it would look better if I changed all of the photos to black and white.  I like the colors from the photos and elements to blend, but that was hard to do on these pages.  That's ok though!  Now on to the next week...

Need a Savior?

No matter who you are and no matter what your past--God loves you.  And He sent His son so we might have life and have it abundantly.  God sent His One and only Son to die a death we deserved--but in love He willingly took our place.  He changed the whole world and He wants to change your whole life today.  Are you willing?

Heavenly Father, I come to You admitting that I am a sinner.  Right now, I choose to turn away from sin, and I ask You to cleanse me of all unrighteousness.  I believe that Your Son, Jesus, died on the cross to take away my sins.  I also believe He rose again from the dead so that I might be forgiven of my sins and made righteous through faith in Him.  I call upon the name of Jesus Christ to be the Savior and Lord of my life. I declare right now I am a child of God.  I am free from sin and full of the righteousness of God.  I am saved in Jesus' name, Amen!

Project Life: Week 17

Hello!  Well, I've had these layouts open in Photoshop for a few days now due to beautiful weather, painting a bathroom, and other miscellaneous tasks.  But today during Jeralyn's nap time I decided to work on it and ended up finishing.  Yay!  I had to start jotting things down in a document on my computer so I don't forget what's happened each week.  So if I do get a little bit behind I at least have the pictures and some journaling.  Life is getting busy!

 

 

 

I also wanted to give a knitting update.  I finally finished the cardigan I was working on, but now I just need to find some buttons to sew on.  I have to say, I think it's one of my most favorite knitting projects!  I can't wait to share pictures!

Project Life: Week 16

Hello!  Another Project Life spread here.  I'm basically caught up now.  I feel bad when I don't keep up with the journaling part of it as well as I would like, but at least there's something, right?  I also realize I'm starting to get bored with all of the digital kits I've been using, so I think it's time to look for some new stuff.  Maybe I will look this weekend when there are all of the different sales from my favorite sites.

 

 

But speaking the truth in love, may grow up into him in all things, which is the head, even Christ: Ephesians 4:15 KJV 

Happy Birthday

I did it!!!  I finally scrapped Jeralyn's first birthday!  Yay!!  Seriously, this was really weighing on me.  I'm laughing at myself because I'm not used to being so far behind (for me).  One of the reasons I stopped selling my designs was because I wanted to use that precious time to scrapbook, and now that precious time is (sometimes) being occupied by other things.  So getting any scrapbooking done these days is great!

 

Project Life: Week 15

Whoa!  Two posts in ONE day!  Let's just say I'm motivated!  Today, Jeralyn is 20 months old.  In 4 months she will be two years old!  I don't even have her first birthday pictures scrapped!  Ahhh!

Project Life: Week 14

Hello!  I'm catching up on Project Life!  I wonder how behind I would be if I was doing this the old-school paper-style?  I would probably still be on Week 1.  Ha!  I was real simple this week, but happy with how it turned out.

 

Project Life: Week 13

Yes, I'm feeling a tad bit behind on my Project Life pages, but I'm getting caught up...slowly.  Quent has been on the computer a lot working on studying for a big test he is taking later this week, so that's my excuse.  The woes of digital scrapbooking.  *smile*

 

I'm thinking about selling most of my stamping stuff.  I can't believe I'm even saying that.  Years ago I would have never considered that, but I haven't really stamped for 2-3 years now.  Isn't that sad?  Right now I have no desire to stamp...nor the time.  I have all sorts of stamping supplies, so if you are interested in something, ask about it in the comments section and I just may have it.

Project Life: Week 12

It's hard to believe that we are already, what, 14 weeks? into this year?  Crazy!  Here is week 12 of Project Life.  I'm glad I'm using Instagram again for taking some photos because it certainly adds a fun, creative twist to what I want to capture on these pages.

 

Project Life: Week 11

Hello!  Another Project Life week to share here.  I have to admit it's the only kind of scrapbooking I've been doing recently.  And I'm totally ok with that!

 

Project Life: Week 10

Hello!  Here's Week 10!

Project Life: Week 9

Once I had Week 8 finished, it didn't take me too long to complete Week 9.  I think I need to make more time to scrapbook each day or at least a few times a week.  I feel like I've been SO busy lately!

 

Project Life: Week 8

Finally!!  Nothing like waiting on your husband to edit his ski photos so you could complete a page!  But it's done!  Yay!  Now it's time to start Week 9!  Yay!  Hope you are having a great weekend!

 

Way, Truth, Life

 

 Jesus saith unto him,

I am the way, the truth, and the life:

 no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

John 14:6

 

It's not through Buddha, it's not through any of the millions of Hindu gods...it's only through Jesus Christ.  There is no other way to God the Father.  There is only one God.  It's been pressed on my heart to share this today.  I pray this truth will resonate in your heart.

Project Life: Week 7

I'm back again with another Project Life spread.  Unfortunately, this week's spread doesn't make my heart go pitter patter.  But I keep on thinking about what Jamie shared with me about how much I will appreciate these pages later on...no matter what they look like.  I am seriously enjoying this project!

Father's Day

Happy Tuesday, oops!  I mean Wednesday!  Wow!  Where have I been?

 

Like I said, I have been scrapbooking here and there.  I had a lot of fun creating this page about Father's Day.

 

I have been knitting a cardigan for Jeralyn.  I am making good progress on it.  Currently, I am knitting the first sleeve.  I'll talk more about that project when I take some pictures.  I'm excited about this one!

Sunshine Girl

Hello!  Happy President's Day!  Ha! 

 

I actually have been scrapbooking here and there, I just haven't had time to post.  I have a moment while Daddy and Jeralyn are playing outside (and dinner is in the oven/slow-cooker)...so here I am!  Actually, I take that back--they are back inside! 

 

This page makes me wish it was summer!

 

Project Life: Week 6

Hello!  So this is my favorite Project Life spread so far!  I think I'm starting to get a feel for what I want it to look like.  Yay!  I really like how it turned out!  I also tried to focus more on journaling this week.  I don't know why, but I'm terrible at journaling day-to-day stuff.  So I need to focus on making that more of a priority.  Like maybe even write down each day (like at in the evening) what we did that day so I can remember it when I'm working on these pages.

 

Mother's Day

Happy Saturday to you!  I'm enjoying the weekend so far and I hope you are too!  This past week I have been participating in a Beachbody challenge and doing Chalene Johnson's Turbo Fire workout.  I'm having a great time and I can tell my body is getting a great workout!  I love endorphins!  

And I found my creativity again this week, which makes me very happy!  Yay!

I finished this layout this morning:

Well, I'm off to be creative!  Have a blessed weekend!
