Christmas Countdown #7 - Reflect the Lords Glory!

This time of year a lot of us tend to start reflecting about all that has happened this year as we near the end of 2015. The good, the bad, the ups, the downs. If any of you are like me, you could probably write a book about the things that have happened this year. Yes, it is a good time to reflect on all that we have come through, learned, and overcome in the year 2015.

It is also a time to reflect on The ONE whom this Holiday is all about in the first place. Our Christmas Countdown design for today is a custom verse print I designed for the Upon The Rock's silent auction. It is the camp verse for this year and one that I have often found myself going back to again and again. Yes, who are we reflecting? What do our words and actions have to say about who we serve and how we live? Such a powerful encouraging verse with a wonderful reminder and promise that we are HIS! Chosen and loved, being transformed into His perfect likeness!!

ENJOY and may you all know that you are loved today!!!

Hold on to the Good!

Happy Tuesday!!!

Hello everybody, I just wanted to share a fun little print I designed recently for a ministry that is so very dear to my heart, Upon The Rock Christian Camp.

Every year UTR holds an annual silent auction and fundraiser to help support and grow their ministry as well as provide the means for more and more kids to attend a life changing week at summer camp! Last year I decided to take the camp verse for the year and create a fun memory print to be auctioned off at this event. This year I was able to do the same and I LOVE how it turned out.

What a fun way to commemorate the amazing camp year and all the lives that were changed through this ministry, the hard working hands behind it, and our Great and Loving Lord and Savior!!

ENJOY and may this print be a wonderful reminder and encouragement of how Good God is!

Christmas Showcase #5 - A matter of the Heart!

One of my favorite things about being a small business is the opportunities I get to participate in causes that are dear to my heart. As an artist it is hard to find a way to use your abilities to give back at times. I can't build a house. I can't make a fancy dinner for someone. BUT what I can do is make pretty little things from the heart!!!

There is a special place here in Colorado called Upon The Rock Christian Camp that has stolen my heart for the past few years. I am blessed beyond words with this ministry and I know I am not the only one. This year I had the opportunity to "give back" and participate in their annual silent auction. I have participated in this event for a number of years but this year I wanted to try my hand at creating something unique.

I decided to take my Wall Hanging Quotes idea I have been working on this year and customize it for Upon The Rock. Each year at camp there is a theme verse that the kids and counselors memorize as part of the activities for the week. It was this verse that I used to create a special framed print for the auction. I LOVE how it turned out and I almost need to print one up to hang in my own house. Such a beautiful reminder of Gods love for us and our hearts. I am so excited to be able to share this print in our showcase today!!

ENJOY!
