And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God,
to them who are the called according to his purpose. . Romans 8:28

truth

For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout,
with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God:
and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air:
and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 1 Thessalonians 4:16,17 / KJV
Jesus is our soon coming King
James 5:8 Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh."

5 Days of Christmas Digi Release: DAY 1

GOOD MORNING!!!
It's THE day you have been waiting for!
The day Fresh Brewed Designs releases their NEW Christmas digital stamps.



I had So much fun drawing these digis.
I love everything about Christmas. 
The happiness, joy, togetherness, love, and magic it brings.
And the only reason for that is because our Lord and Savior
Jesus Christ was born. What a wonderful reason to celebrate.
I have seen so many people complaining about Christmas lately.
Decorations are out too soon. 
We shouldn't do this or that. 
If you are a Christian, you shouldn't teach your kids about Santa.
I am going to now tell you that I don't agree with any of it. 
Bring on the decorations! More time to celebrate!
Santa is not 'bad' as long as you keep CHRIST first and the center of it all. 
I am so super excited about the release of new movie SAVING CHRISTMAS 
by Kirck Cameron.  (I encourage you to check it out and watch the trailor)
I will be watching this at a theater near me soon! :)





Now enough gabbing and back to the reason I am here, 
to share our NEW DIGIS WITH YOU!!!

The digi I chose to create with today is called:






This card also features a new Christmas sentiment
Wishing you a warm and cozy Christmas. 

For this card I used papers from the American Craft Hot Cocoa paper pad. 
I used PTI Black cardstock and white cardstock by 
Cardstock Warehouse Paper Co .
Embellies: pompom, confetti snowflakes, enamel dots. 


Challenges for this card:

Jingle Belles: Creatures (elves were listed... does Santa count too?)




Now another card using the same image:






For this card I used the pebbles Home for Christmas 6x6 paper pad, 
a piece of dotty basics red paper from Papertrey Inc, and white cardstock by 
Cardstock Warehouse Paper Co .
The glitter is all by american craft. I used a glue pen to add the dots to the blanket
and a strip of double sided tape to add the glittered 'santa belt' to the base of the card. 
The ribbon and other embellies were from my stash. 


Challenges for this card:

Don't Forget the Milk and Cookies!

Good Morning!
I hope everyone is having a wonderful week. 
The weekend is ALMOST HERE  and Christmas is just around the corner.
(I know, that was mean... I teased you with relief for the weekend then WHAM reminded you of all
the Christmas plans you have to get ready. Sorry about that ;) )

My kids do know there is not a Santa Clause. I know Han has not believed for a while, but my son did.
I really was good at making it seem real. Too real. The poor kid was heartbroken. He was getting picked on at dance by some of the other boys and I could not stand it anymore. Sad that I had to break his heart in the process. He is getting older though. I guess he never really thought about it ... and he trusts me 100% so why not believe the lies I have been telling him?!?! :(( They do not want to leave out milk and cookies this year, but I am talking them into it anyway :) .. or perhaps we will start a whole new tradition. I will let you know ;)


We have a few fun things planned this year for our church Christmas party, my little get together I have with my family and things like that. Pretty simple and fun and I am looking forward to all of them!
LOTS of good food, smiles and love as we celebrate the birth of Jesus together.

Today I have a fun little card to share with you. 


This little guy can be purchased at the Fresh Brewed Designs shop HERE
He can be purchased with or without glasses. A sweet friend of mine requested 
this image because her little grandson wears glasses and she wanted to make something special for him. 
I hope you all love him as much as she did :)

Big smiles,  Heather
