4 Little Scraps of Heaven Designs Projects

Greetings on this beautiful Saturday morning.... hope your weekend is going well. I am finally getting back into the swing of things. But still on a S-L-O-W pace. Just finding some time to create when I can. I was wondering... should I post all projects at one time, or do you enjoy the daily postings?  I'm always contemplating when I should post, or if I should even post? Well, maybe since I have a bunch of projects today, I can just post all the projects I created this week??? What do you think about that?? Well, I'm just going to go ahead and do so, so thank you!!!

I have 4 projects to share with you today, all created using Little Scraps of Heaven Design's cut files. Here we go!!!

Created this card using the tiger from "Zoo Critters Vol 1":

FIRST Review of The Greeting Farm's NEW Faith Based Stamp Line

I had the pleasure of being one of the first to review this **NEW** Faith Based Stamp Line that The Greeting Farm has released. The Lord is so AWESOME in allowing this to take place. I was so blessed to ask to do this. So thankful to My Lord n' Savior Jesus Christ!!! This is ALL about HIM and what he has done on the cross for me (and you - whether you know it, believe it or NOT). Jesus Loves YOU!!!

Here is my video review:

Monster Drink Cake

It has been a while.... some much has happened since the last time I've posted. We went on a trip, my son's girlfriend graduated from College and got her AA. We then went to Canada to celebrate, where my husband surprised us there, and where my son proposed to his girlfriend!! Went back to WA for another week, and returned home. Had a wedding on the Sunday the week we returned, my grandmother's funeral on the Tuesday after July 4th. **sigh** Crazy busy. Then we had a water leak in our wall - a flex hose that connected the water pipe to the faucet busted. Dry wall damage, floor damage, carpet damage.... now, we are in the works to renovate. Praise the Lord!!! I am thrilled, but am exhausted. The entire time, I have been battling some skin ailment.... not sure of what it is, but at one point, the itch was driving me bananas. I have gotten it under control via Prednisone, but not sure if after the pills are gone, if the itching will be back. I can feel it. Will have to let my doctor know, because the next step from here, would be to see a derm.

Anyways, with all that has been going on... haven't had much time to craft!!! This was the first project I've worked on since being back... my niece saw this idea on Pinterest, and asked for my help. I made it for her.... here's how it turned out. Didn't really put that much into it, but the paper n' cuttings came from my craft room. The letters were cut out on my eClips2. The pasted on with glue. That was pretty much it.


I've heard that there is a storm heading our way. Praying that it won't affect us too much. I bought so many things while I was on my trip. :)))) Want to make use of them and start using them. Looking forward to THAT!!!  Hope your week is going well.

Aloha,
Jen

Breakfast With Rina

My bestie, Rina has been called to serve her husband many years ago by becoming his wife. Never have she thought that she'd be serving him under the circumstances of his illness. But as our vow states, "in sickness and in health" - she stands firm, in Christ Jesus, planted in HIS solid rock of foundation and caring for her hubby, day in and day out, selflessly placing her own desires on the side for now, because her love for her husband shows her love for Christ is stronger than anything else, at this very moment. 

I was blessed to have been able to have breakfast with this sweet sister in Christ, and share some words of wisdom and encouragement as she continues her journey! We laughed, we cried and we laughed some more!!! Thank you, Jesus, for a blessed morning!!!! 



After breakfast with Rina, I headed into town to meet up with Chevy! We caught up with each other's lives and I purchased some leis from her store! 


I also went to see Ailene!! She hooked me up with a ton more leis... For FREE!! 
I'll post pics of those leis in another post. 

Hope your doing well. I should be back home shortly... So much more to share!!!

2 Page Layout - Pieology Pizza

There is a new pizza place on Oahu. It's called Pieology!!! Located on the other end of the island, and about a 45 minute drive away from our home. But from church, only about 15 minutes away. So after hearing about this place through IG and our friends, Matt & Jess, we decided to go and check it out. The first time we went there, we went with them. The 2nd time, we went on our own. LOL!! We just love the place. You can get any toppings on your 11" pizza, all for $10.95. What kinda place is this you ask?  Just think "Subways" for "Pizza"... yumm oh my!!!

Well, here is the 2 page layout that I created. I used Kristin Aagard's Pizza digital kit, and a sketch from Page Maps (April 2016). Love how it turned out!!! 


When printed, this will be 2 - 12x12" pages. :) If you'd like to go close up to the pic, simply click on it, and it will enlarge.

I used Photoshop Elements 13 to create this page, and all of my digital creations. This kit has super fun elements n' it had all the elements that I wanted to use. Here is her kit which can be found n' purchased at The Lilypad:

Here is the sketch I used to help me make my page layout... thank you, Page Maps!!!!

I need to work on more digi LOs... it's already May and I haven't even really done the beginning of the year's pages..... will be praying that I get to do more of these as well!!!

Happy 50th Anniversary Card

 Aloha!! Today, I have an anniversary card that I created for an order. This is for a 50th Anniversary. So cute!!! The image is a stamp from Penny Johnson. The sentiment from Stampin' Up!. I colored with ZIG Watercolor Brush Tip Pens, stamped on watercolor paper. The inside stamps are from Stampin' Up! as well. This turned out too darling!!!


Happy 50th Anniversary to the couple that is receiving this card. May the Lord bless you and continue to guide you both in HIS direction. May the Lord bless your marriage and that it continues to flourish within.

With Love,

Go Forth and Bless Others

Aloha n' Welcome back to another cute crafty creation by me... Jen!  Today, I am sharing a card I created using Lawn Fawn's stamp set called "Stuck on You". I created this card for a Youth that is going on a mission to Mexico. I am so blessed to see that some of the Youths at our church are doing the work of the Lord. They are heading to Mexico, and will be building shelters for the homeless and sharing the Gospel with villagers out there. I am excited to see what the Lord's plans are for these kids. Praying a blessing of covering for them, to be protected and to be healthy throughout the mission. Thank You, Lord for the opportunity!!!  The scripture stamp is from Our Daily Bread designs. This was a pretty quick card to make, but still, it turned out so cute!!!

Thanks for stopping by! Hope your weekend is a blast!!!
