So Very Thankful...

My prayer is that everyone reading this has a blessed Thanksgiving in whatever way you celebrate it: in quiet reflection of all that God has graciously done for us, or in joyful chaos with family and friends :) I'm thankful for: Grace, hope, love, health, God's Mighty Right Hand of protection, safe travel, eyes to see the beauty and wonder of His creation, and the ability to recognize that it all comes from my Heavenly Father :) <><

More wood fun!

Well I loved the pumpkins I made earlier so much I was excited to see that Craft Warehouse had snowmen too! ( and santas, etc. ) so I had to make a coupla more :) They came with the blue/black plaid ribbon so I just chose scraps from the drawer again that matched the ribbon- added a little silver snowflake button on the littlest guy. Too much fun! <><

Giving Thanks....

I love this time of year- I probably already mentioned that a dozen times! lol....but I love to give out Thanksgiving cards to people. This year my 'goal' has been to use up what I have on hand ( which means that- in about 20 years I'll need to go buy some more!!! :) This card is made with scraps from my scrap drawer- bits & pieces- and I ran the one strip through the CB. The image is from SU. I added a shiny Class-a-peels sticker to the top- hard to see in this pic, some ribbon and a leaf brad. And now it's time to tell my friends that I'm thankful for them! <><

Thank You Veterans!

For those who have sacrificed so much for the freedom and safety in our country- that I pray we never ever take for granted. God Bless you all for your Servant Hearts :)

Happy Belated Reformation Day :)

But the desire to be 'reformed' in the image of Christ is an everyday event :) Also a day of 'Lutheran excitement' - the issue of the brand new Lutheran Study Bible (ESV) with lots of teachings and footnotes that help us understand what it means to be Lutheran Christians :) I read a preview and knew right away that I wanted one :)
Have a great week! Sola Gratia! - by Grace alone <><
