Scripture Challenge with Patter Cross -#12 - GROW

This fortnight Patter challenged us in her devotion to look at ourselves and see if we are growing in our faith. Sometimes I feel I am and other times I feel like I am slipping backwards or stagnating. I know how to remedy this..... get stuck into more reading and studying of God's Word.

I used my page this time for a Font Challenge on my favourite digital scrapbooking forum - Nuts 4 Digi. The font we were given in the challenge is Impact Label which looks like dymo tape.

The digital kit I used for my page is French Market by Syndee Nuckles.

Scripture Challenge with Patter Cross -#11 - Purpose

For this fortnight Patter gave us the word "Purpose".
Our purpose is to glorify God and I chose this verse because of the great commission the Lord gave us to go out into the world and make disciples. We are to sew seeds wherever we go. We may never see the result of the seed we sew but we are to still sew it - that is share God's word - be a witness for Jesus in all that we do and say.

For my digital page I used the following:
Seedling to Tree sticker by Faith True; Alpha by Paula Wright and all the other - papers, watering can, water drops come from a kit called Happy Garden by Vera Lim.

Scripture Challenge with Patter Cross - #10 - EXAMPLE

This fortnight Patter gave us the word " Example" to work with.

I chose this verse as this is something I need to be more aware of. I need to be aware of the example I set with how I react and deal with the happenings in my life.

For my art I decided to do something I little different. Once I found the crossword background paper I knew was what I wanted to use.

The paper, button and stitching all come from a digital kit called Just BU by Angie Briggs.

Scripture Challenge with Patter Cross - #9 - QUIET

For this fortnight Patter gave us the word "Quiet" to use. Her devotion was about taking time away from the busyness of life and be alone with God.
When I picture that I think of lovely peaceful green rolling hills which is why I chose the digital kit for my artwork as it had this perfect piece of background paper.
I know that I fail miserably with taking time out and spending time alone in prayer. This was good timing for me to re-assess my use of time and do as I know I ought to.... go away and pray.

For the digital items I used - they came from a kit called "Gleeful" by Amanda McGee with some style ( Epoxy by Mandy Steward) added to the centre of the flowers to make it look like I put some glossy accents there ( if it were a real paper layout ).

Scripture Challenge with Patter Cross - #8 - Hymn

This is my art for this fortnight's Scripture Challenge with Patter Cross - Triple the Scraps.
Once I read the word for our challenge I thought of the scripture to use.
I do love to sing even though I am not a good singer. Often when I come home from Church a Hymn or Scriptural song we have song will be on my mind.
I enjoy playing scriptural songs in my home when I do the housework or do some scrapbooking or cardmaking or on the computer with my digital scrapbooking.

The credits for the digital products I have used are as follows:
Music background paper from a kit callled Frippery by Amanda Sok; Music Note by Rachael Scraps; Hearts and Pink patterned paper from Pretty Music by Maelia Designs

Change in my Header and colours of this Blog

Today I decided it was time for a change. The header was not quite true before this new one as I had that it was mostly Scripture Challenges from Faith Sisters that I was doing. I am not visiting their forum so much these days.
I am only doing the Scripture Challenges with Patter Cross ( Triple the Scraps ).

The two papers I used on the header are from a kit called Sweetness by Donna Duncombe Designs. The template for the header is by Erica Hite (Scrap Girls).

Scripture Challenge with Patter Cross - #7 - Perfect

For this fortnight's challenge I found this verse in Hebrews 12:2 which I felt would be a good one to have on display in my home for the different friends and family who will be visiting us over this coming weekend.

I have placed the heart within the crown of thorns because of the love Jesus displayed as he suffered for my and your sins.

This little digital page was put together using a kit called "Coffee Time" by Digi Illusions.
The crown of thorns is a brush I found free on the web somewhere (I do not have the name of the designer)
