Matthew 28:18-20 (English Standard Version)

 

And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

12X12 Fairy Penny Page

 Good morning friends!

I got this idea from a page I saw on Facebook by a girl named Chrissy, I'm sorry that is all I know about her but I just loved this flying V shaped layout of hers and the colors went perfectly with this photo of my great niece, Penny.  I always liked the colors purple and peach mixed on flowers, I've used it several times on cards in the past.  So Chrissy the fussy cutter, thank you very much for an excellent layout design.

Material list HERE.

Card size:  12x12

Pick a lavender color decorative paper (Sweet Pea Collection).  Spray with Saltwater Taffy (peach/pink-coral) Oxide spray ink.  Sponge with Saltwater Taffy ink pad and Deep Purple ink pad randomly in the flying V shape as shown on sample.  Stamp a few leaves from the Large Urn set at left corner over sponging.  Color with Zig Clean Color markers.

Stamp leaves again using Leaf Green on Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper, stamp Leafy Accent leaves using green, sponge with aqua and green, also a little light coral color (Saltwater Taffy), die cut, shape and set aside.

Die cut 4-5 swirly leaves from the Cut Mat Create 2A from aqua color paper.  Cut 1 or 2 apart to be used around photo and to add to the embellishments going up the left top from photo.  Glue the others center right of photo and photo toward left bottom.  Adhere decorative strip down about 1/3 of the way across the page from left edge. Adhere photo using pop ups on the right side to compensate for the pearl trimmed strip. 

Arrange flowers and leaves going up to left top, going down to left bottom and some just to the center right of photo.  Glue all securely.

Stamp fairy using Memento Black, die cut then color with Copics, glue to flowers at left side of photo.  Stamp Magnolia Buds using London Fog, sponge with Saltwater Taffy and Leaf Green, die cut then insert where desired in arrangement.

Mark 8:34-38  The words of Jesus

34 And calling the crowd to him with his disciples, he said to them, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. 35 For whoever would save his life[d] will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel's will save it. 36 For what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and forfeit his soul? 37 For what can a man give in return for his soul? 38 For whoever is ashamed of me and of my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him will the Son of Man also be ashamed when he comes in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.”

The Bible says that God wants all to come to Him, that is not exclusive at all.  He does not want any to perish but it is up to us because He gave all of us free will.     2 Peter 3:9 

"The Lord isn’t really being slow about His promise, as some people think. No, He is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent". 

God's word also says that He so loved EVERYONE that He gave His only son to die in our place because none are righteous.

John 3:16 

¹⁶ “For this is how God loved the world: He gave^[a] His one and only Son, so that everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life. 

Jesus the Christ, God's only son said in John 14:6 

 “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me".  

So the only thing you have to decide is: Was Jesus who He said He was? Many witnesses testify He was, OR was Jesus crazy or a liar? 

 Jesus actually lived that is a fact.  Hundreds of people saw Him crucified, that is a fact, and then later saw Him alive, that is a fact.  Many thousands saw Him do so many miracles they could not all be written down, these are all historical facts.

I know who I believe in and He has changed my life, how about you? 

God's word says ALL have sinned, it does not matter what you have done, He loves you and wants you to come to Him.  Believe in Him, that He died for you and rose again from the dead, turn from your sin asking Jesus to forgive you and ask Him to become your Lord and Savior then follow Him (that is make Him your boss and do like He did while He was on earth...study His word so you know what He did).  But don't worry if you are not perfect, no one is...we all sin but He is faithful and just to forgive us when we belong to Him and ask Him to forgive.

For more tips on creating with the border dies & foldout cards, watch the tutorial at https://youtu.be/wxX94X84kUo.

Instructions: 

Card size:  6 X 6 ½”  Cover each panel of foldout card (see video for cutting paper) with the Backyard Blossoms Paper Collection. Die cut borders out of peach card stock and cut narrow borders using the plain edge of the Fleur Borders out of lavender card stock. Cut back border from peach using two of the Delicate Boders and the lavender narrow border using the plain die from the Classic Border set.  Die cut a lavender and a peach using the Festive Holiday Die and one each using the Decorative Medallion Die.  Glue the lavender Decorative Medallion to the back of the card on the right side leaving at least half sticking out from the edge then glue the peach one on (the lavender will appear on top from the front).   On the other side, glue the peach Festive Holiday die to the back of the third panel (third from the front) at an angle and then glue the lavender Festive Holiday die on top of the peach. Cut one pocket from lavender.  Cut a rectangle tag and an oval tag from decorative paper.

Stamp, die cut and color the fairies, blossoms, birds, critters, and coneflowers with Copic Markers.  Glitter all flowers, fairy wings, and butterflies.  On the back panel glue sitting fairy to log on paper, glue one of the birds to top right corner and glue some of the blossoms to the bottom area.  On the inside of third panel glue the lavender pocket to bottom right and insert tags.  Glue some of the blossoms on the left side of the bottom next to the pocket.  On the back side of the same panel, glue the tall coneflower over the Festive Holiday die and then glue a short one next to it (one coral and one purple).    Inside second panel, glue standing fairy to left bottom and the little bird and branch to top left.  Glue small coneflowers to bottom right.  Inside first panel die cut the paper with wheat stocks using the wheat stock die from Backyard Blossoms and then glue them on top of decorative paper.  Glue tiny butterflies and bunny on the bottom.   On the outside of the last panel glue two coneflowers (one purple and one coral) to the left side.  Stamp It’s Your Birthday on decorative paper and die cut with oval die then mat with another oval cut from peach card stock and glue these together then onto the front right bottom.   Glue a bird at the top left on top on one of the coneflowers.

Now make a 3D coneflower using the sunflower stamp and die set.  Sponge deep Purple color onto petals front and back.  Shape by misting flower from the back, place face side down on shaping mat and starting from the outside, use tool to draw petals inward.  Pierce hole in the center and insert a wired stamen (color wire with green ink) from the top (stamen will stick up).  Fold flower in half and even tuck sides in to make it look more like a coneflower then start adding 3D type glue to the stamen and rounded top of the flower to cover with Prills (Mix Go Man Go with Express-O Yourself). Add more glue and more Prills until you have a rounded cone center.  Let dry completely, then glue flower to front panel.   Tie a triple bow with lavender ribbon  (or dyed seam binding) and glue to the front at the bottom of the stems.

Thanks for visiting today, hope you got some ideas for a card!

Starting with Genesis and on through until the end of the Bible, it all speaks of God's awesome power AND His unfailing love for us, His mercy and His grace.
I'd like to share one of my favorite songs with you, well part of it anyway!
Verse 1
"God of creation there at the start
before the beginning of time
with no point of reference You spoke to the dark
and fleshed out the wonder of light
Chorus 1
And as You speak a hundred billion galaxies are born
In the vapor of Your breathe the planets form
If the stars were made to worship so will I
I can see Your heart in everything You've made
Every burning star a signal fire of grace
If creation sings Your praises so will I
Verse 2
God of Your promise
You don't speak in vain
No syllable empty or void
For once You have spoken all nature and science
follow the sound of Your voice
Chorus 2
And as You speak a hundred billion creatures catch Your breath
Evolving in pursuit of what You said
If it all reveals Your nature so will I
I can see Your heart in everything You say
Every painted sky a canvas of Your grace
If creation still obeys You so will I"
By Hillsong United

It goes on but I will close right here.  I just love the way it speaks of God's almighty creative power and awesomeness! How He speaks and it is done, it is created, it is accomplished. How great Thou art!
