"Count Your Blessings" Giveaway!

It's "count your blessings" time again! I would like to thank YOU my visitors for stopping by my blog and for your continued words of encouragement. Thank you! To celebrate my 20,000 plus hits on my blog I am giving away this chipboard book I made especially for the occasion. Each page of the book is a different letter and it spells out the word "Love." The book is filled with all the embellishments you see. Plus there are some additional handmade embellishments I had fun designing that will also be included. The chipboard book is all ready for you to fill with your favorite photos and journaling. Leave a comment, share a life blessing and your name will be added to the giveaway drawing. I will draw a name the middle part of the month of February and mail the chipboard book & embellishments to the winner! I find that even during challenging times there is always something to be thankful for if I just take the time to think about and count my blessings. We have such an awesome heavenly Father that wants to meet every desire of our heart, how can we not stay thankful, huh? Lately I've be blessed reading these articles on Serving the Lord...especially the one on the power of prayer and the poem at the end of the article. Take a look...I'm sure it will bless you too. Chipboard Book with all embellishments:

Plus more handmade embellishments:

FYI, since this is the latter part of January, I will probably re-post this giveaway in February since the drawing will be that month. May God bless YOU with a most excellent day!!

Tutorial: One Sheet Mini Albums

As I mentioned in a prior post....okay, I know it's been awhile because I presented these mini albums at Rita Holmes' SW Ohio Gathering. LOL! Sorry it took so long stampers. Anyhow, I would like to share the simple instructions for these quick and cute ONE SHEET mini albums. I have a SLIDE show below for you to view. Remember to pause the slide show, hold your mouse over the picture. I've listed four different size papers you could use. These are so much fun and easy and they do make great quick yet elegant-looking gifts! The papers are all The Angel company patterned papers and because they are so beautiful, there's not much embellishing to do. I like that. Using your Scor-Pal scoring tool, score as follows for each of the different size patterned papers:

For 12x12 paper: Score at 3-1/2" and at 9" For 9x9 paper: Score at 2-1/2" and at 6-1/2" For 8x8 paper: Score at 2" and at 5-1/2" For 6x6 paper: Score at 1-1/2" and 4" After scoring you will fold...please use your bone folder for crisp creases. Place some red tape on the end of sheet and adhere. At this point it will look like a tube. Fold this in half using your bone folder. That's it! See Slide Samples. You basic album is complete. You can then staple the back spine, hole punch it and thread ribbon thru it. Or you can use your Zutter bind-it-all spiral wire rings. (Remember you can get your Scor-pal and Zutter Bind-it-all at half-price as part of your TAC hostess rewards..email me if have questions.) Decorate as little or as much as pleases your taste.

Your turn to share. Link up to this post so we can all see your wonderful works! Thanks again for coming over to visit me. God bless you abundantly during this holiday season!!

Amazing Grace!

A friend of mine sent me this and I thought you'd get blessed watching the spectacular light show!

Tis the Season Gift Tags

These are some gift tags we made for our Stamp-a-Tag class. Lotsa fun!

Tutorial: Corner Bookmarks

Last week I shared a tutorial on how we could RE-USE the inside of a #10 envelope. Today I'll share what to do with the outside of envelopes (especially during the holiday season when we get so many greeting cards!) Well, if we cut off the two bottom corners of envelopes we can make some wonderful corner bookmarks. So simple,huh? I put together some ideas for you on my SLIDE show below. Remember to place mouse over picture to "pause" the slide show. I would like to invite you to visit the Inspirational Craft Blog where you'll get blessed with all the inspiration shared by many artists and where I'm honored to have a few tutorials featured. Thanks for dropping by stampers!
