Created this Fish Bowl Easel Shaker Card using Queen & Co's "Fish Bowl Shaker Card Kit".

Prayers for Gina Wrona

Created this "Prayers for Healing & Comfort" shaker card for my crafty sistah, Gina Wrona. Please join me in prayer as she goes in for open heart surgery on Wednesday, 11/11. If you would like to send her a card, please message me for her address. I know she would be soooo very blessed to receive a hand made card from you, filled with plenty of prayers, love n' encouragement. Thanking the Lord for this wonderful lady who has been a crafty friend for many years now. Lord, hear our prayers. Be with her during surgery. Praying for the hands of the doctors that will be delicately working on her. Praying for the nurses and staff to take good care of her. Praying for healing and comfort, and for plenty of rest as she takes the time to heal after her surgery. Thank You, Lord for her life. Please carry her through it all. In Jesus Name, AMEN!!!!

Created this card using Queen & Co's "Fancy Frames Die Cuts" & "Foundation Dies #9 (flowers n' petals), and "Prayers" die cut and stamped sentiments are from Taylored Expressions. Inside sentiment is from Sweet & Sassy Stamps.

Label die is also from Queen & Co.

4 Baby Shaker Cards and Process Video

Happy Sunday, ya'll.... I like you are hurt and disappointed with all that is going on in the world. The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy... I am praying for Unity and rebuking Division, in the name of Jesus!!! 🙏🙏🙏

With that being said, I hope you are all **trying** to have a blessed Sunday... I pray when I create, therefore, I slay n' pray at the same time.... ;)  I was able to work on another video. This time, it is of 4 cards, created with Queen & Co's Baby Shaker Card Kit. I have my video posted below after the photos. I apologize for the way the video looks. Makes my hands look fake. But I am trying different programs and looking for better options on how to record. If my voice over sounds relaxing n' sexy, well... it's because the baby was sleeping and I didn't wanna wake her. LOL!!! Please let me know your thoughts! ;)

Happy Aloha Friday!!!

Happy Aloha Friday, Gang!!! Praying you are all doing well, staying indoors, staying healthy, and staying alive!!! I am going to try this "once a week" post in my blog, because things have been slowing down everywhere, but at the same time still moving, know what I mean?? I figure I could share my once a week, what I have been creating. I'll try and just post 5 projects, so that it doesn't get too overwhelming for everyone to read. I'll keep the post simple n' sweet, and if you want more of my blabbing, just let me know.

Ok so here we go...

Project #1: "Happy Birthday Shaker Card". I created this shaker card for my grand baby who turned 1 in February. I have recently found a new but old love for shaker cards, and thought that a shaker card for her would be so perfect. stamps are from The Greeting Farm. Die cut is from My Favorite Things.  I had so much fun creating this card. I used Copic Sketch Markers to color images, and a White Signo Gel Pen for highlighting.

Project #2: "Hello Spring Swap Cards"
Here are my cards that I created for my one-on-one swap for the month of February. Theme was "Spring". I used the "no-line coloring" technique. I think I need more practice. Stamped images are from RG Avenue. Dies from Lawn Fawn, and Sentiment is from Hello Blue Bird. Cloud stencil from My Favorite Things. I used Prisma Color Pencils to color in these images. Made 17!

Project #3: Bible Journaling Page:

Digital image is a freebie from RG Avenue. Scripture I highlighted is 1 Corinthians 1:26-31. Basically the scripture says, "If you're gonna boast, then boast about JESUS". That is what I designed. This is a 9" x 12" spiral bible from Illustrated Faith. Pages are huge, and so much room to decorate, I love it. I used Pan Pastels for the background, and words are stamps and stickers, and "JESUS" was cut out of Yellow DSP, on my Sizzix eClips2 machine. Date stamp is also from Illustrated Faith.

Project #4:
Another bible journaling page. This one was done a year ago, back in Feb 2019! I guess I forgot to share it. You don't need to decorate a bible to do any journaling. You can basically use any old book that you no longer need, and just decorate it. This one has lyrics of a Praise n' Worship song called "Hold Me Now" (Whole Heart). The words remind of me God's goodness and how much GRACE he gives me daily. Grace upon Grace upon Grace. I am no good without God.

This last pic is not a project but rather a reminder of things that are NOT Cancelled. Even though there has been so much changes in our lives, a lot of things have NOT changed. So keep your head up. View this as a time of "Dwelling with the Lord" as this illness/disease passes over our household. Hold fast to the Lord's WORD and his promises, and be still and know that HE is GOD!!!  Continue to love on each other in your household and appreciate having them here together with YOU. 

God Bless n' Aloha,
Jen

Note Book For Maria Bell and Happy Mail

This will be my last post for today (Aloha Friday), and then I will continue with catching this blog up with more posts come tomorrow. :) I have to finish up so that I can jump on my treadmill. Here I have a simple note pad that I covered up and gave to Maria as "Nice to Finally Meet You In Person" gift.

Products are from My Favorite Things. Funny, how back in the day, I wasn't a huge supporter of MFT. Now, I just love the stamps and products that they are coming out with. So CUTE and FUN to create with. This stamp set and die cut was part of one of my most recent Happy Mail Hauls. I got the Sunshine Die Cut for FREE since my order was over $60!! Thank You, MFT!!!  I made this note book cover with a flap that created a sweet little pocket. Maybe Maria can use it for a shopping list, and put coupons in the inside pocket. The sun is a shaker part, that I've added some glitter n' sequins to. Just to bring her a little smile through this bright and cheerful cover.

Here is a short video I took of this note book....



And as promised, here are some Happy Mail Hauls that I've had recently received.... so looking forward to playing with all of these..... Thank You, Lord!!

Thanks again for stopping by n' reading. Have a marvelous weekend!!!!

Aloha,
Jen

CC Designs & Pretty Pink Posh Creations

Happy Aloha Friday!!! I hope you are doing well. It has been a while since I've posted, so I will be posting a bunch of things to update this blog... probably only going to go back about a month of posting. So please bare with me. If you receive more than 2 or 3 posts within 1 day, I appreciate you reading and scrolling through and catching up with me.

Today, I am sharing with you some cards I created for a card order, and later some Happy Mail that I received. :) 

So here are some adorable cards I created using CC Designs Stamps. Oh these doggies are TOOOOOO cute. I have been loving some doggy n' kitty stamps, and CC Designs has the cutest, thus far. I have been chummy with more kitty stamps lately, because my son and DIL has a kitty that they've adopted, and he is called Mochi. I started liking the kitty stamps because of him. Too funny!!!

These next 2 cards were made with stamps from Pink & Main. You know, I've had these stamps for a while now, but I have been mostly a "Collector" of stamps, rather than a user. Until I found a way to store my stamps nicely right behind me, so that I could easily flip through my stamps and grab sets out. Now, I'm gonna try and use these stamps as much as I can!! :) 

And again, this is another card that was created using CC Designs (doggie), and the circle hugs scallop frame die cut is from Pretty Pink Posh. YUMMERZ!!! I made this darling shaker card for a dear friend, Kelli Bee, whose precious doggie, Toby went to heaven. We love our fur babies, and they are totally our babies... I will be so sad and heartbroken when my Bella n' Ceasar n' PupPup leaves this earth. So, I just wanted to send her a little comfort n' smile through a hand made card.

That's it for this post.... I may have another one posted. Thanks for reading!!!!

Lawn Fawn's Snow Globe Shaker Card

Aloha and Happy Sunday!!! Yesterday, I got to play with some of the goodies I received in the mail. Here's the haul I received a couple of days ago... 

Look at all the yummies, right??  So I decided to play with the Snow Globe from Lawn Fawn's "Ready Set Snow" set, and "Ready Set Snow Add On Shaker" die cuts. I also used an adorable seal stamp from Lawn Fawn's "Critters in the Snow" stamp set. These stamps are just too CUTE!!!! Love them all... you can see why I don't make a very good Stampin' Up! Demonstrator... I'm always straying... LOL!! But God is good... He gives us FREEDOM in choice, and one of them is to be able to create with ALL things cute out there.

Here is pic of a half-way created shaker card....

I used white beads, blue micro-beads, clear micro-beads and glitter..... yummy!!!

Here are some pics of the complete card. I've also created a video for this card, sharing the details of how I made, and what I've used. You can check it out below the pics I've posted below.

Here is the video I made....



Thanks for visiting. I hope your Sunday is a blessed one!!!

Aloha,
Jen
