China Bound

  Hello all, Saturday Olivia and four other High School girls left for a mission trip to China. They will be going to Beijing and Hong Kong. They are taking things for the ministry in their checkin bags, like devotionals, clothing and other items for personal use for the Chinese. They were so excited. They each had to raise the money for their trip and put a lot of hard work and study into the culture. Brian Keaney will be with them and is a veteran at traveling the world and mission trips. Please keep them in your prayers if the Lord puts them on your heart.

The card below is the thank you card and prayer concerns sent out for Olivia and the girls.

This was a fun card to make. The card was already shaped like a ticket which made me think of the tag attached to your luggage. The beautiful paper is from Make Time To Create, perfect since it had the different luggage on it. Just love the checks also. The ribbon from Stampin Up as well as the saying. The airplane and Trip of a Lifetime are raised Stickers from Jolee. Have a good week and remember the world is bigger than the US we can influence other countries for the good.

New Paper IN!

  Late Create was on at Make Time to Create, Newburgh, IN last night (Friday). It was really exciting. I was greeted with a shout from my fellow crafters who made it there before me. They were already creating like crazy and fired up.  They should be. Dolly and Mary had lots of new paper, stamps and accessories come in this last week and more to come!  Weeeee...  We had a great time looking through it while they prepared for the crop the next day.

  The card above is made with some of the new paper and stamps. I wanted to keep it closed  a little so you could see the lady inside hence the lamb carving. It was so easy to come up with something since the paper was so pretty. I loveeee vintage paper and stamps. They have plenty to pick from but there is also a large selection and styles of paper and accessories from baby, children, travel, sewing, fishing, hunting, camping and just some fun graphics etc... You can spend hours looking in their shop at the products. I also like the fact that there are many samples made with the different papers and products to give you ideas and if you don't have time Dolly has some cards made up for sale. You can't beat that. Go check them out.

  Well my daughter is going to China on spring break and I have to go make some thank you cards for those who supported her trip with financing it and committing to pray for them. Have a good weekend and be posting soon.
