I hope you are staying warm with all this cold air everywhere. I thought this little girl would warm your heart, and working on a challenge will warm your hands. So here is this weeks challenge at
Stampin' Sisters in Christ.
Today Grace is our challenge hostess and the scripture she chose is from the book of 2 Cor.5:17.
"Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new."
Such a simple concept - believe and be new. The tulip that the little Tilda girl is holding represents new to me. The cold and freezes of winter leads into the warmth of new growth every year. Like life, we may experience some darkness some cold times. What brings us back is the grace of Christ's love. If we trust and believe and let Him into our lives we get through and become new. Great verse Grace!
The challenge this week is to create a card or project shows "new". Use the theme of "NEW" and interpret it as you want: new year, new life, new birth, new supplies, new house, etc. Please tell us what you use to fit the challenge. This is the first time I used the Magnolia stamp - in fact it was a gift (thanks Jennie Harper!). I also think that the tulip represents new.
Our sponsor this week is a $15.00 gift certificate to Clear Dollar Stamps.
Be sure to stop by my SSIC design sisters to see what they have to share this week:
