Sunniest Stories Kit Collection by Stampin'Up!

 Give the Gift of Creativity

Another day to explore  easy ways to create and make life beautiful around us. If others don't make your life beautiful, be intentional. Make your own life beautiful with small choices. God's  goodness pursues you, let Him catch up with you.




Life comes with troubles. Most days we encounter valleys, those low places in life we truly don't like to be in. 

I am so grateful Jesus has chosen to be with me and you in the valleys of life. Still, we look forward to the 'sunny days' and memorable stories where we see God's goodness.  THIS IS WHY I love scrapbooking. Is my attempt to find the beauty in the midst of the difficult times and challenges. It allows me to rest in knowing He creates pockets of grace for me to abide In Him and behold His beauty.


* My oldest daughter recently graduated from a two year degree in ministry school. It was not an easy accomplishment for her and seeing these photos and celebrating this moment reminds me He is faithful and will continue to be. 

Using the kit my own way makes this so much more fun. This kit allows you to do that.

I don't feel I am done with these two layouts. But this is how the process started. I will add journaling and some more details. It is part of how I create. No rush. No hurry. Just enjoy the journey.


 I invite you to explore this with the Sunniest Stories Kit Collection Scrapbooking Kit from Stampin'Up! to do this. He is great, He gives us moments of 'glory' where we experience the mountain tops. For those moments I am grateful. But even more grateful that Jesus chooses to walk with me through the valleys. He never leaves us. (Psalm 23). 



I am excited to share it with you and pray you leave encouraged, strengthen and with HOPE! 

Brighter days are coming! Check the song I shared during my Monday livestream here. 

I truly enjoy these times with friends online.



GIVE THE GIFT OF CREATIVITY is an invitation to try out the kits I love using so much and that make life and creativity easier for me. It is a clean slate, a starting point. Great as well to gift to others for birthdays, celebrations, retirement, anniversaries, and many other occasions. 

You can purchase it in my store here.



Count you blessings today even in the valleys. 

Joy comes in the morning. Our hope is in Jesus! 


Thanks for joining me today. 



If you wish to craft with worship music in the background check this worship leader in YouTube. I was listening and worshipping while preparing this blog post today. What a blessing Andrew Chong is. I do not know him personally, I just found his music so beautiful.

Thoughtful Octopus by Stampin'Up!

USE WHAT YOU HAVE

This cute Octopus makes me happy for some reason. 


Today I wish to inspire you to use what you have that brings a smile. I used a BUNCH of retired product that I love and want to continue using. Below you can see if you already have these in purple.



I gave it a try for the first time making some mini thank you cards for my Pretty Paper Shares ladies and mailed with their shares. I am so grateful for my stamping friends and all they do for me truly. 

I hope these brought each of them a smile.




Can't wait to play with this little critter again. Sometimes stamping simply needs to be for fun and to bring a smile. 


MEASUREMENTS for SMALL CARD

Cut a piece of Designer Series Paper (I used the retired "Friend of the Ocean" DSP) to 6" x 4-3/4"

Score and fold at 2-1/2" ON THE LONG SIDE (6")

Die cut or punch a circle (about 3" circle- I used the retired Stitched Shapes. and stamp your Thoughtful Octopus and the smile inside.

Add a cute label (Peaceful Season dies) with the sentiment in Black Memento Black Ink.

Finished size is: 3-1/2" x 4-3/4"

DO YOU HAVE SOME OF THIS PRETTY PAPER LEFT SOMEWHERE? SUCH A HAPPY PAPER, USE IT!




What brings you a smile?

Whatever it is, do it more often. Behold it more often. Experience it more often. God smiles at you. 



“Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing.” – Mother Teresa
