My 2016 project - Bible Journaling (Art)



I have been inspired by fellow artist friends who have been Bible Journaling for some time now, and when I recently stopped by the Family Christian bookstore with a gift card I wanted to use, I found this fabulous little Bible for journaling on a half price table. That is all it took for me to get busy with this little project. I try to do at least one a day. I randomly open the Bible  and start reading. If I come up with an idea I pencil it in, trace over the pencil with micron pen and then I have been coloring it in with colored pencils.






I hope as we are going into this new year, you have decided on some little project for you to invest some time in and grow a little in your talents, your knowledge, and perhaps even better understanding of your faith and God's word. Blessings to you in 2016!!

CCEE1550

\ Joanne is ouir hostess with the CCEE Stampers last challenge of 2015.  We will be taking a short break before returning in the New Year on January 7th.  So at this time we would all like to extend our wishes for a wonderful holiday season.  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all!!!

So.....here is this week's challenge.....

Did you know? There are occasional "Leap Seconds" added to the official year. They help to correct minor variations in time. On December 31, 2015, the folks who maintain the official time for the planet, will add an extra second to the day!  To honor this, the challenge for this week is to incorporate time into your card…..a clock, a calendar, a date, a watch, etc.

We'd love to have you play along. All you have to do is create something using the above challenge, and upload it to your blog and/or to your SCS Gallery using the keyword CCEE1550. Don't forget to come back here and link it on Mr Linky so that everyone else can see your card too.

While you at the blog, check out all the great examples the other members contributed.

For the life of me, I could not find any clock stamp I have. I know I have a few, but I did find this clock on some design paper. With a busy week, I just let this be a quick and easy card this week. Nothing like doing a time saver, for the challenge dealing with leap seconds. LOL

Have a most joyous Holiday, Merry Christmas, or Happy Hanukkah!

CCEE1549



Today is National Roof Over Your Head Day. It is a day to be thankful for those of us who are fortunate enough to have a safe home to live in AND to think about those around the world who do not. To mark this day, our challenge today is to make a card with a house/building of some sort on it.

I used an old Flourishes set for this card. I am grateful for my humble abode, and I am thankful that I have friends who are always so wonderful about welcoming me to their homes. I will continue to support Family Promises who find wants to give shelter and meals to those who do not have those luxuries.
