Hello friends! I'm back after some surgery on my left arm....doing a lot better now! And I've got a special Double Page kit to share with you today that I made for The Scrapbook Diaries! I had so many pretty papers and beautiful embellishments to use here, that I decided this one had to be a double kit....that's right, 2 page with 2 instructional videos.....and as always you get all the products I used to create these pages so you can make them exactly as I have or tweak it for your own style :) Lots of lovely chipboard pieces in this one, including this beautiful title chippie. I like to choose titles that will work for anyone's pages...just choose your family photo and add it in :) I just fell in love with the blooms in this kit....such a lovely variety....and I just love the little berries, they add such a whimsical touch! Lots of yummy Dusty Attic chipboard in this kit as well....my favorite zippers...and that Marrakesh Trellis is such a favorite for me as well! I used up every bit of it on these two pages. You also get a gorgeous TCW (The Crafters Workshop) stencil in this kit with my newest favorite mixed media product....Shimmerz 'Blushing Bride' Vibez spritz! It is so pretty! It is a beautiful rosey pink with hints of gold! .....Now for the second layout..... Again, I used a chipboard title that can work for anyone ordering the kit. For this one I used the gorgeous paper collection designed by Frank Garcia called 'Tales of You and Me" for Prima Marketing....I'm so in love with this paper collection! All the elements I adore in paper! Here's a closeup of some of the lovely page elements included in this kit. ... I didn't capture it as well in my photo as I would've liked, but the roses in this kit are so glittery and beautiful! Not knock you in your face glittery but that beautiful iridescent shimmer with a fine dusting on the blossoms....love it! (no pun intended LOL) As always I did a full video tutorial for both kit pages and Janene Meyerowitz (owner of The Scrapbook Diaries) has done a beautiful Bonus page as well. This kit is just packed full of pretty things to get your scrapping on..... you can order your kit today HERE! But.....I also have another little something to share with you before you leave today! ..... I was recently asked by Jennifer Hedger (owner of Dusty Attic Chipboard in Australia) to create a kit with a photo tutorial for their special retreat that they went on a few weeks ago. Last time I did this the ladies on this side of the pond were wanting to get their hands on this kit as well! So Janene at The Scrapbook Diaries worked with Jennifer Hedger to get all the chipboard specially cut for this kit and Janene put together the kit with all it's mixed media products, papers embellishments etc. so that you lovely ladies can get your hands on this kit as well! She saved it to release with my double kit so that you can save on the shipping! Yay! This kit includes Dusty Attic chipboard, blossoms, paints and mixed media products....fun embossing powder that adds a lovely texture and shine! I'm just loving the fine lattice included in this kit....randomly cut and peeking out from behind torn paper....it's such a fun design element. I show you step by step how I added the finishes to my chipboard pieces in the photo tutorial included in the kit... Here is more of a close-up of one of the leafy chippies so you can see the effect I got with the mixed media products included in the kit. I just love the mixed font titles that Dusty Attic has put out lately as well! They are so delicate and pretty! So if you'd like a go at this kit as well, you can order your's today at The Scrapbook Diaries....this is a special order that Janene put together so it's first come first serve, you may want to get your's before they run out. You can find this kit HERE. Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today! It's good to be scrapping again! As always, I so appreciate your kind comments and feedback, you ladies make my day! xo

Hello 2022! I'm ready for a new year, but unfortuneately it is starting just as 2021 did. We can only pray and hope that it ends in a different manner. Two weeks ago, when asked by my friend, Bernice Hopper, if I had selected a word for 2022, I said that I had not. At that time, since nothing had come to me, I was content to think I may go for a year without a guiding word. I didn't want to force it or simply select a word becausee I "had to" have a word. But then as I slowed down after weeks of being busy, a word appeared and began to take shape as the days progressed to the close of 2021. My word for 2022 is 'formed'. To be formed, according to Webster's, is the act of giving form or shape to something; to come into existence or being. It's root word, form, is at the heart of so many significant words: spiritual formation, transformation, transform, inform, information, reform, conform, format, perform, formidable, formulate. Plus some newer words I am ready to explore such as cruciform and Christoformity. Formation is at the heart of the life of those who are in Christ, for the goal of our life is to spend our life in the process of being formed into the image of Christ. We see this call on us throughout Paul's writings. A few examples are: "And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brothers and sisters." Romans 8:28-29 "...until Christ is formed in you." Galatians 4:19 My desire this year is to continue to be formed by the Word of God. To continue to dig deeper in Bible study, and this year, to also dig deeper into theological reading. We are continually being shaped and formed by something - our relationships, politics, the culture, family systems, entertainment, life experiences, etc. But as Christ-followers we must choose to be formed by God, who calls us to be formed in increasing measure into the likeness or image of Christ. "And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit." 2 Corinthians 3:18 To be spiritually formed in His image we need to be formed by God's Word, by His Spirit, by our faith community, by those more matrure in Christ, by theology, and by serving and loving others. It is God's Word that reveals to us how and why we are to be shaped by all of these things. I so enjoy taking words or passages from the Bible, studying them and then putting it together with some form of creative expression, such as what I do for the Advent Words and other Words challenges. However, doing a daily study, art and blog post is something I can only handle for a month at a time periodically through the year. This year I thought I would do something a little different to keep myself going in this habit on a more continal basis, and to go along with my goal to be formed by the Word and my word of the year. I thought I would try to do this weekly, posting on Fridays. I'm not going to generate a set list of words in advance as I do for a daily challenge, but rather take the words out of whatever I'm studying at the time. I'm going to start this month with the first Words post on January 14 and see how this flows with my schedule. If you would like to join along, you can read my Words posts on Fridays and respond creativly, maybe even doing your own study of the word for that week. You can then share how you respond in the Words Challenge Facebook Group and/or on social media with #formedbytheword and #wordsartandfaithgroup. Have you selected a word for 2022? If so, please feel free to share in the comments section below otr in the Words Challenge Facebook Group.
