Say it with Flowers Challenge: Week 3

My Pumpkin Challenge has an amazing challenge going on throughout this whole month, and I so wish you join us. 

Playing with this beautiful PP kit is great. (see it below)
Kits are so much fun, they bring lots of embellishments and even if you think you are NOT the creative type, this is for you!
It comes with instructions and is a wonderful activity to do with your family or friends. 

Check out my extra-idea this week. 

This kit is so beautiful. Did you know you can get refills from it in my store.

There are several past FULL kits available for subscribers only and refills.

Check it here for availability!

I totally love when we can mix our PP stamps with other stamps so I decided to use the "wreath"  from Project Life Memories in the Making stamp set; (last week I used the one from Wondrous Wreath and embellish it with flowers. This month challenge at my Pumpkin Challenge is so sweet. You gotta go check what my friends made with this it for sure.

Sale-a-bration 2016: Hello Stamp Set

Creative blessings,

Life is full on this side of the world and I am thankful. 

I am learning to take slow steps and be mindful.

Be mindful of what I speak, what I think, what I buy, what I eat, what I do.

I honestly do not want to walk through life mindless. :)

I have taken some time to make samples, try new kits, scrapbook a bit and organize.

Organize my heart, my house, my stamping spot, my kitchen…well not all at the same time.

HOPE your January is starting to take shape and your goals for the week, the month and this year are getting grounded. Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus and listen to the Shepherd as often as you can. Be mindful of Him.

Here some hello cards mixing the Hello Sale-a-bration stamp set and 

the beautiful flowers from You are Remarkable.

Red card I used my blender pens to ink that flower with Real Red.

Green card I sprayed it with one of Stampin'UP! spritzers, alcohol and ink refills.

Some days you just need to say hello. 

Have a creative day and keep the HOPE.

Good things are going to happen.

Stampin'UP! You've Got This

This stamp set was the first one I got from the new catalog this year.

And what a blessing to have it.

Not just the flower is precious.

The sentiments are the best.

You've Got This

On this card I used my flower to create a background. 

I used Island Indigo and Smokey Slate. 

Precious colors that complement the Butterfly thinlits.

Materials:

Send a word of His unfailing love…. it is #playweek at my house.

While we play, lets encourage one another, lets spur each other onto love and good deeds, lets grow in the knowledge of Christ.

Creative Blessings,

Jessica Urrutia

She believed she could… Stampin'Up!

And this week thou fully scheduled has been a blessing!

Indeed having my #noslackingweek theme helped me to go through some "down" moments still focused and thankful for all that the Lord is doing in my life.

I may not have the full blueprints for the journey, but I don't need them. Jesus is enough. 

He will lead me gently.

Materials:

Dahlia Flower Background

Feels Good Stamp Set

Bitty Butterfly Punch

Fluttering Texture Embossing Folder

She believe she could so she did!

These cards are part of a set I gave a friend last month. 

On Monday I will show you the full package.

Giving is better than receiving.

Grace gives.

Hope you get inspired with these ideas to use your talent to empower others and lift their load a bit.

Keep your fire, keep your passion!

Have a wonderful weekend,

Monthly Cool Cards Class #noslackingweek

Good morning!

New week, new blessings!

New week, new challenges!

New week, I am ready!

I am so excited to share with you a bit of my journey through this blog.

Join the conversation below, 

What gets you moving in the morning?

I have inside of me such a passion for growth. A passion for increase. A passion not to get stuck on me but to go beyond me, and reach out to others.

What is your passion?

Check below a couple of quotes that lift me up!

But first let me share what I've been working on.

This was one of the cards we made at my Monthly Cool Card Class.

We had so much fun and enjoyed stamping together with my sweet ladies.

Materials: 

Garden in Bloom Stamp Set

Calipso Coral, Basic Gray Cardstock

Circle Card Thinlits

Big shot Die Cutting Machine

Tea Lace Paper Doilies

Neutrals Designer Series Paper Stack

Washi LabelPunch

White Organza Ribbon

Basic Rhinestones

A quote from a man named Vincent Van Gough says:

The way to know life is to love many things.

Ha! I always relate to this quote because I know I love life, and in this abundant life I am living I do love many "things": God, my family, teaching, piano, stamping, dancing, having friends…..

All these take time and effort….so this will be my #noslacking week.

O, dear! Did I just say that…yes, I did!

No slacking….share below an area were you will determine this week NOT to slack.

Put your best effort (energy, joy) and smile while you do it. 

Another awesome quote from the Bible that gets me going each morning is:

Psalm 18:35: "You give me your shield of victory, and your right hand sustains me; you stoop down to make me great."

What an amazing thing that the God of the whole universe stoop down to make ME great. Wao!

I want to be great at making Him great!

#noslackingweek

Haha…I did my share of burps this morning at Trot Fitness! No slacking!

ARE YOU WITH ME?

Honestly, 

This must be the cutest stamp set and punch on earth!

That you still don't have your Sprinkles of Life!

Get it today because it is the best stamp ever.

It comes with so much and you can make projects not only for birthdays, but to encourage a friend, to say hello, to lift up, say I miss you and more! 

I am totally in love with mine.

Can we just add more hours to my day? Hehe! That way I can create more.

I was listening to an awesome coach and motivational speaker the other day. My fitness trainer Mr. Nisan Trotter on a video he released on Sunday eve.

And one of the things he shared was to put MORE ENERGY into what you love to do. Into THAT thing that you are passionate about. He truly challenged me, cause I thought I was putting "enough" energy!

Wao! But he pushed me to up it even more. You can follow Nisan here for s good dose of Motivation. 

I told you this is my Awesome week…since Monday morning I chose the tune of my week. Awesome!

It is you who chooses the tone of your day.

So..why not get that energy higher. Do your very best in everything you put your hands to do and do it with joy! 

 Sprinkles of Life stamp set…just beautiful!

Sprinkles of Life stamp set…just beautiful!

"Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters, since YOU KNOW that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving"

Colossians 3:23-24

I gotta tell you, this verse fuels me!

What an awesome week I am having and I am grateful to God and to you too.

Never stop pursuing your dreams

Never stop doing that which produces such joy inside of you

THAT is your gift!

Use it to bless as many you can!

Have an AWESOME day!

Garden In Bloom: Gift for a friend

Sometimes the little details are very important.

That is why I sent my sweet friend Pam this card and bookmark.

It helps that I was truly inspired with this beautiful set. :)

Don't you love those metallic doilies. My fave!

The stamp set Garden in Bloom was my first pick from Stampin'Up! Newest Catalog.

You can see the PDF on the right side-bar today. 

Lost Lagoon (blue) and Very vanilla (cream) 

are the colors of choice.

To make this gift even better I made her a bookmark with the 

Banner Triple Punch. Love it!

Ooh, did you see that Fluttering Embossing Folder. :D

I used the Gold Glitz Dazzling Details for the center of the card. Paper can be so helpful to send a message.

Send a message full of love. 

Use your stamps and Cardstock. Just perfect!

Creative Blessings!

Jessica Urrutia

Kind Koala Hugs!

Why I didn't get this Kool Koala before now?

I have nO IDEA! 

But I truly needed a few cards to send to a few friends this week, and this stamp helped me perfectly.

Plus is sweet!

Rich Razzleberry and Smokey Slate are my colors. Neutral: Whisper White.

I love it so much I made a few and the best is I ACTUALLY mailed them. Yay! That's the joy of stamping…blessing others!

I've been meaning to do this for a long time. 

I am doing it now and I am happy for that.

Here I used Crumb Cake and Mossy Meadow.

Can you see the rhinestone?

Cute!!

Have a blessed day my friends,

Jessica Urrutia
