Matthew 25:34-40
34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry, and you fed me. I was thirsty, and you gave me a drink. I was a stranger, and you invited me into your home. 36 I was naked, and you gave me clothing. I was sick, and you cared for me. I was in prison, and you visited me.’
37 “Then these righteous ones will reply, ‘Lord, when did we ever see you hungry and feed you? Or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 Or a stranger and show you hospitality? Or naked and give you clothing?39 When did we ever see you sick or in prison and visit you?’
40 “And the King will say, ‘I tell you the truth, when you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters,[f] you were doing it to me!’

Heartfelt Creations- Fairy Bendi Card

Good morning!

This morning I have combined 4 sets to make this little Bendi card.
The new Singing in the Rain, Wildwood Cottage, Flowering Dogwood and Doves and Woodsy Wonderland.
They all have super fun components that make a wonderful fairy garden.
For a fairy garden you have to have some foliage hanging down, bunnies hopping, Birds singing and a wonderful little fairy cottage, right?
The paper for Singing in the Rain is so perfect that I was able to use just it for my inside scenes without the addition of anything else.







HC PRODUCTS USED      



Other Products:
Brick embossing folder, Foam Tape, Lavender card stock, Copic markers: RV10, RV00, RV02, Y11, Y15, Y17, BV00, BV01, BV02, R00, R11, R21, R22, E53, E33, E35, E000, E00, E01, E93, V00, V01, B00, B02, B04, Y21, Y24, Y23, White Fun Flock, white card stock

Instructions:
Card size:  6 X 6 ½”   Cut white card stock 6 X 5 ½” and cut decorative paper 6 X 5 ½” to cover (die cut and glue Regal Border from Lavender  and glue to top before adding paper so that it is sandwiched between). Cut two side panels front and back (4 pieces) 6 X 5” and use curved border from Fleur Basics to cut the tops.  Cut a Fleur Border from lavender card stock for both sides.  Sandwich border between two layers for both sides. Score ½” from edge on both sides (along tallest side on both) for tabs to glue to back of card.  Draw a ¼” line on the short end of both and make a tab on both.  On center panel, cut a slit to coincide with left flap tab, 4 ½” from left side.  On left flap, make a slit to coincide with right flap tab, 2 ½” from left edge.  Glue flaps to center in the back using the ½” scored tabs you made on each long end.
I used decorative paper with a scene on the inside of each flap so I did not add anything else this time.  For the center and outside of flaps I stamped, die cut and colored cottage, cottage accents, dogwood, wildwood florals, blossoms, fairy, bird in branch, birds, birdbath, and wheel barrel.   Emboss cottage with bricks and rub Worn Lipstick over the embossing.  Add windows and door and glue to center of card.  Add slightly shaped dogwood to each side of center and some flowers at the bottom (avoiding slit).  Add Prills to center of flowers, glue Fun Flock to round blossoms.  Glue bird to dogwood branch at top right.
For left flap, glue a piece of left over dogwood to left side, glue wheel barrel to right side and pop up fairy with a bird in her hand to left over part of dogwood.  For right flap, glue birdbath with bird to center area and pop up bird in branch to right top. (Always avoid slits for ease of opening and closing Bendi Card.).   Glue ultrafine glitter to wings of fairy.

1 Corinthians 10:13New King James Version 

13 No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.

Galatians 6:7-8

Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap. For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.
Walk in the light of God's word!
