Angelic Faith&Hope-Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge Anything Goes!

Hi, Everyone!
Happy Monday!! Today is Monday's challenge at  tammyscrapincorner.com. For today's the Challenge is "Anything Goes". Now who does not like Anything Goes?? LOL. I know I sure do!
 For my card I  used an digital image by Crafts and Me called Dusk.  I have had this image for awhile. I was inspired by ninaic blog she does these amazing work. Also when I was working  on the finishing touches for this image. I was hanging out my scrapbook sister Ann  she gave me alot of ideas as well. Thanks so much Ann.  Also on her dress I could not figure out what was near the bunny on her lap. It was so funny that it just puzzled me. My Dteam mate Candy emailed  me and in turn I asked her what is that on her lap she  told it was the design on her dress. LOL. So there you have it. Thanks Candy . I have been wanting to color this image and finally got around to it. This image is just amazing and inspirational! This company has amazing digital stamps. As for the title of the card "Faith & Hope" This image reminds me of having Faith and Hope in everything you do. When you have Faith and Hope you discourage the dis-believer.

Sympathy Card - Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge Distress

Hi, Everyone!
Happy Monday!! Today is Monday's challenge at  tammyscrapincorner.com. For today's the  Challenge is Distress. This was alot of fun.  For the first time. I used my Zutter Distrezz - It- All Machine. WOW. Ok. I will be honest. LOL. I have had the machine for two years sitting on my shelf  collecting dust. I love it. I went to town! Oh yeah. Can you tell? LOL. Distress all the way!!
 For my card I  used an digital image by bugaboostamps.com called Skye Panies.  The flowers / leaves on my card are 3D and curled.  I love the way it turned out. Still need a little more practice. Anyway when I first was designing this card. I kept getting the feeling it was going to be a Sympathy Card. Now sidebar. I have never made a Sympathy card at all. This is my  very first. Anyway moving on. When I was almost finish with the card. My dear friend at my job lost her Mother - In-Law. Now I understand why I was getting the feeling Sypathy card.
 This card is for my dear friend.

Rejoice In Everything You Do!

Hi, Everyone!
Today I would like to share some exciting news. I was invited by Laura Boetto and Chris Callebs from Paper and Pixels Magazine of Crafts Creating From The Heart  to do a card tutorial for there amazing online magazine. When I first received the invite I was thinking and thinking. I don't know if I can do it. It amazes me that other people see things in you that you don't see in yourself. I am truly thankful, grateful, and blessed. I am honored. For today's card for the publication is an image I used called Morning Glory by Crafts and Me. I was inspired by my scrapbook sister Ann she used an image from this company as well. Thanks Ann.
 This image has alot of  spiritual  meaning to me! This image reminds me of several scriptures. Philippians 4:4, Psalms 33-1,Psalms 18-24 (Thanks Candy for helping me with the scriptures I just could not remember the names bibles)Rejoice in everything you do! Whatever it looks like you Must Rejoice.  When you Rejoice it takes away the anxiety and sets you in a better place. I want to thank Laura and Chris again for inviting me.
