In this day and age, everyone has access to the proverbial soapbox-in just a few clicks from our social media accounts, we can make our voices heard. But how do we use our voice? Is it for negativity and selfishness, or do we use our voice for inspiration and hope? What if God was using our voice as a gift? Up on My Soapbox is one man's collection of inspirational words of wisdom from his own soapbox. Although author Darryl C. Wilson Sr. once used his soapbox for his own purposes, he rediscovered his faith and focused his observations back on what matters-his relationship with God. Reaching out to fellow prodigal children returning to God, Darryl shares heartfelt, encouraging, and sometimes humorous anecdotes and observations about the finding God in the everyday. We never walk alone, and even when it seems like we have forgotten about God, he is always there with us. If you have drifted from God, or if you cannot seem to find him out there in the darkness of the world, then Up on My Soapbox can help you see how God is still there for you with the gift of his unconditional love.

Welcome to day 2 of the countdown for the November MFT Release. Today I have a card using the new set called You're Super. It features an adorable super girl and all the sentiments and details to go along. To create this card, I stamped the building silhouette's twice in black ink and then each time, stamped them off in the background to create the distant skyline. Next. I stamped and colored super girl to stand out front. I popped her up with some foam tape and then added this skyline panel to the front of the card base on fun foam. The bottom edge of the card is Cement Gray. I added the speech bubbles to the top of the card with the sentiments included in the You're Super stamp set. To add a little something fun to the inside, I used the pop up element die and added the "POW". I love how it pops up when you open the card. The MFT Blog will have lots more sneak peeks of this months release. Click HERE to check it out! Thanks so much for stopping in today! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Supply List:
