Thanks: Jeremiah 29:11

It is just about the middle of summer vacation for me. It always amazes me how quickly the weeks zoom by - much like the fun little scooter I colored for the card this week. It is also time once again for a new challenge based on scripture at Stampin' Sisters in Christ!
The super talented MariLynn is our challenge hostess this week and brings us the  verse from Jeremiah 29:11 .

"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." New International Version (NIV) 11

Oh I have plans - lots and lots of plans, I just don't always get them done. Right now I have plans to lose weight and plans to get my cards done in advance and plans to get some lessons planned for when school starts. I like planning - but often life gets in the way because those are my worldly plans. I do wish, though, that I knew what plans God has for me. I would love to know if I am doing it right. It is a good thing that God's plans for me always get done.

The challenge this week is; Make a project that follows this PLAN: (at least) 1 circle or oval element, (at least) 2 different papers, and (at least) 1 embellishment.

This week our sponsor, with your choice of 3 digital images is DoodlePantry.

Don't forget to stop by my SSIC design sisters (listed on the sidebar) to see what they have to share this week.
It is always great to see you, thanks for the comments and have a wonderful week surrounded with God's love.

Zoomy cuteness for sure! What a cute card, Miesje. Days do zoom by faster and faster the older I get. All the more important to focus on God's plan for each day. Appreciate the thoughts you share on our verse for the week. Will be covering you and your household in prayer...that even as time zooms by you will have plenty of leisurely time with God and family!
