Hallo dear blogging friends! Hope the sun is shining like it is here today.
I don't have to tell you my love for grids, it's also part of my character - using what you have and making something useful with it!
And now a little twist... never knew I would think of yet another way of incorporating inchies onto my cards, but quite by accident, I did. As I was moving things around, a diecut fell on a little pile of inchies and thus my idea was born as you can see.
I punched out inchies from the top cover which is the introduction page to the rest of the Pink Paislee papers, can you follow me? I distressed the diecut and stamped over the top with the Envelope Pattern stamp from Hero Arts, added a flower and button and the card is ready to send! I am entering this in the PDCC challenge this week which has the following inspiration picture:
I have another little testimony to share today. I don't know about you but I can be very nonchalant with my Bank Pass and sometimes loose it for a considerable period of time and don't even go looking for it! So it was again, I had lost it for two weeks already and had to tell DH because I could have lost it outside somewhere or in a shop. We searched the house high and low! Nothing. Then DH, with his wisdom, said, did you pray about it yet? Hmmmm, no, I hadn't. So I prayed while we were searching and received instantly the thought: It's in René's wallet...... and YES, there it was!! Isn't God big in the small things of life??? How big is God then in the difficult things of life - maybe you have a situation today that is causing you problems or sorrow - PRAY to the Father in Heaven - He is there to help all those who call upon Him - in Jesus Name!
Oh what a HAPPY accident, Its beautiful!
ReplyDeleteDoing some catch up on your blog today. Its been far to long

You should do more things by accident, it turned out wonderfully!! Love that shape around the inchies, too!
