The 4th Sunday at Parkview - Expect the Unexpected

Our 4th Sunday at Parkview was spectacular.

Expect the Unexpected

 The chairs at our church were set-up to create a Labyrinth. Generally there are 3 stages to the walk: releasing on the way in, receiving in the center and returning when you follow the return path back out of the labyrinth. Symbolically and sometimes actually, you are taking back out into the world that which you have received.
I feel very blessed to be able to create the center piece for the services at our Church. Furtunately I had Pastor Steve's help with this one. He has such vision. (You can actually see him in the botton picture at the upper right. He was very busy before the service begaan.
Well I wanted to share because our 4th Sundays at Parkview are always true to their statement "Expect the Unexpected"

Bless You all and have a great day...
P.S. Card sample coming. I have to take the picture. It's one I created for the swap I do each month

Love you all

October Stamp Camp

This is the first card we created, It's a 3x3 card. I used the new pewter embossing powder.

This card was created with the gold embossing powder and then I used the sponge dauber using pool party, cajun craze and more mustard. 

This card has a special fold and was so very simple. Although I think everybody thought it was going to be so difficult.

If you'd like the information on these cards, please send me an e-mail and I'll forward the information.

Have a great evening and Blessings to everybody

These are the cards we did at Stamp Camp this month. It was so much fun. From beginners to experts, everything looked beautiful. Thank you all for looking.

2010 Fall Card

This card was created last year for one of my stamp camps. I had such a good time doing this, except it was a little difficult getting the windows cut evenly.

Have a great fall day

Another Fall Card

I love fall, it's like I can't wait to get out the more mustard, cajun craze, old olive, pumpkin pie and all those wonderful rich colors.
Today I did a workshop and since it was the first time for most of the ladies, we did some of the Simply Sent card and then created this card so they could get their hands on real stamping. I had a wonderful time and hope all the ladies did too and they become as adicted as I am to stamping....It's a great stress reliever.
Here is the card we created using Always Thankful from the new Holiday Mini Catalog. If you'd like more information, please send me an e-mail.
Thank you all for looking and Blessings to everybody

Fall Card

This is the fall card I created for a swap I'm doing. I had a great time creating this card because there is lots of cutting and I truly love cutting paper. Enjoy and Blessings to Everybody

September Class Projects

My September Classes is always fun because I transition from summer to fall and I love the fall colors.
This first card is my Halloween card...It was so much fun once I got the clear embossing powder and not the white. Funny how putting white embossing powder on black craft ink can really change the look of a black hat.

The next card is actually a card I copied from one of the ladies I swap with each month. She truly saved me so much time and my class loved this card. I will add her name to night when I get home, but wanted to thank her for her beautiful card.

My last card is one I created myself. I used Not Quite Navy and Cajun Craze...I love those colors together. There is a lot of cutting on this card, but I think it is so worth it.

Thank you all for checking out my blog and have a great day

Projects For Church

Saturday I spent making flowers and bookmarks for Rally Day at our church. The flowers were used for a special prayer time and the bookmarks were used for the re-dedication of our library. So here are the pictures.

Here are the flowers. Each person who had a special prayer, would go to that prayer station and say a prayer and then place the flower in the bag. Sort of like when you light a candle but not as dangerous.

This picture is from our re-dedication of the library at our church. We had some really incredible people work very hard to get everything categorized and arranged so perfectly. On the frong is our church name, address and phone # (used a stamp I purchased from Stampin' Up!, inside the 3x3 note card, is the bookmark which has a picture of our church that I downloaded from our website. http://www.parkviewucc.org/

Have a great day and Blessings to everybody
