Mr Turkey is in town…..

….and isn’t he just the cutest ever?? There are many cards on Splitcoast that were my inspiration but I really wanted to make him my own creation so I did some adding and taking away from what others did. I was without internet for 2 days, along with the cable and phone so alot of creating was done. But before I decided to get creative and save myself from insanity, I thought I was going literally crazy because on Monday, all 3 of my kiddos decided to be sick. So with all 3 kiddos being internet and Disney Channel junkies, it felt like the 2 days were never going to end. When my youngest son, Hunter, went to school on Tuesday, he asked me, “PLEASE, mom call the “people” and tell them we really need our cable and internet back on TODAY” Hee hee. I said, ya ya, and went on to proceed to make 38 swaps and 1 card for the SUDSOL swap I am in…. but for today I decided to try out the Mr Turkey with the Pick a Petal stamp set and he is very handsome, I must say. So for all of you Turkey lovers…. meet my Mr Turkey.

Recipe:

Ink: Really Rust, More Mustard, Regal Rose, Old Olive, Pumpkin Pie, Chocolate Chip

October Ministry Card

This month has been totally crazy and before I knew it the ministry cards were due!! YIKES! I had to come up with something quick and easy. I made a very simple yet powerful card for these special ladies in my group. I love doing this for them and making their days shine through receiving a message of God in the mail from me. I hope that they will take the message to their heart and let it rest there, knowing God has a season for everything! BUT he is ALWAYS by our sides!


Keep the Faith!

September’s Ministry Cards……..

……. and Pick a Petal!! I absolutely LOVE this set!! It is one of the next ones on my list of MUST HAVES. The sentiment comes from a friend and it was so fitting for this card. I used Rose Regal on the petals and flower in the sentiment. Also, if you have a Stamp A Ma Jig. it makes things alot easier making these flowers!! Trust me!!
I have been contacted by one of the gals I minister with my cards, who wants to talk with me and I am so honored. I cannot wait to talk with her.
Enjoy!!

Giving back through cards…..

Well I finally got through!! I have been trying to get ahold of our local pregnancy center to see if I can partner with them to start a NEW ministry with them and it looks like I am in!! The director is going to be calling me back to make finalization’s with me. This is a dream come true for me as I have been praying about this for some time now. This particular center holds a very dear place in my heart. They helped me out years ago when my oldest son was going through 8 different formulas and we were having some money issues. They graciously provided us with the formula for him until our coupons came and NEVER asked for ANYTHING in return.
Throughout the years I have given back to them with the clothing, etc that my children have outgrown but now I would love to minister to them through my cards. My dream is to incorporate my cards to the gals that come for help, inspiring them to know that God loves them no matter what their situation is.
This center is very much an anti- abortion center also any way that we can get to the hearts of these very young, to older ladies, I am all for it!!

Thanks for listening and please pray for this to FULLY come to life!

Blessings,
Heidi

Augusts Ministry Card of Inspiration

This is my card for August that I sent to the Gals in the Ministry I volunteer for. The gals I am involved with are out of rehab (half way house) and are recovering from whatever they might have been in for. We do not get any information other than their names and addresses, and pray for them as much as we can. They request to have monthly cards of spiritual inspiration sent to them and then its my job to create that special card for them.
It is such a great feeling to know that they are enjoying my cards and inspirations and I am ministering to them through my thoughts put on the cards. This card was something that I came up with thinking SUMMER brightness to send that ray of sunshine to them.

Recipe:

Stamps: Michael’s $1 acrylic
Cardstock: Bashful Blue, Glorious Green, generic Yellow
Paper: Joann’s Paper
Punches: Giga Scalloped Circle, CM Circle Cutters, Window Punch
Ink: Glorious Green
