Women to Women: Sharing Jesus!

Hello ladies, I just wanted to share with you a really wonderful blog that I recently became a follower of. It's called http://womentowomensharingjesus.blogspot.com/. It's authored by Diane and she is a wonderful stamper (her stamping blog is Dianes Designs) and a wonderful woman of Christ!

In Diane's own words this is what this wonderful blog is all about:

Women to Women: Sharing Jesus is a place where women can meet and share their love of Christ and any questions about what it means to have a personal, saving relationship with Him. This blog will contain devotionals, news items, links to other helpful devotional sites...anything that helps share the message of the Gospel of Christ. All comments will be moderated, but your comments are welcome. I hope to hear from you. And to celebrate the milestones of this site, there will occasionally be blog candy here too!

If you don't know Jesus as your poersonal Lord and Savior there has never been a better time to accept Him into your life. Jesus is always there for, waiting for you to turn to Him and trust Him with all your burdens, sucesses and joys in your life! I pray that if you are reading this and don't know Jesus that you may seek His love. If you have any questions about what it means to be save or to accept Jesus into your life please feel free to e-mail me at : mabieme1999@yahoo.com and don't forget to check out Women to Women

Thanks for stoipping by! I pray that you have a wonderful creative day!

May God bless you today and always!

Little Paper Shop Digi Chick


I am just in love with this little Chick! It is also a digital stamp from http://www.littlepapershop.com/ and I think it's one of the sweetest baby chicks I have ever seen! LOVE IT! I printed the image twice, once on white paper and then again on designer paper to get the cool polka-dotted look.
I then colored the chick with water color pencils using both yellow and a tad bit of orange and then used a blender pen from Stampin' Up! to blend it all together.
For the waves on the baja paper I actually used the large SU! heart punch and punched randomly all the way accross. Stamped the flowers from the SU! goody goody gumdrop level 3 hostess set in black stazon ink and added the rhinestones ans ribbon and called it a day!
Supplies:
Stamps:Egg digital stamp from Little Paper Shop, Goody Goody gum drops from SU!
Ink: Stazon black

Accessories: making memories kit, bo bunny ribbon and ric rac, rhinestone stickers from the christan book store
