My second project each month is a bookmark that I make for my daughter, Megan. She chooses the scripture and I mail her a bookmark (she's at college). It always blesses me to see which scripture she's selected. This month she chose ~ I find rest in God; only he gives me hope. He is my rock and my salvataion. He is my defender, I will not be defeated. My honor and salvation come from God. He is my mighty rock and my protection. Psalms 62:5-7 (new century version). I printed the scriptures for both projects on the computer and for Meg's bookmark I stamped some polka dots on the sentiment pieces, to coorinate with the celery and bashful polkadots on the designer paper...I was pretty tickled to see how well it blended with the DP! There's also a LOT of shimmer and sparkle on her bookmark, but the photo just doesn't show it...I've had some trouble getting fine detail with my camera. I think it has a lot to do with the dark, overcast days we've had.
There is a HUGE and growing gallery over at SCS, using the keywords BVC08...your can check out that awesome gallery HERE! This is a great way to combine your love of stamping with scripture and memorization. I'm just making a card each month that I display, some girls are making journals, memory cards etc. Whatever works for you. I really do hope you'll play along. I have a few great scripture stamps, but if I don't have a stamp for the scripture I select, I just print it on my computer...how easy is that? If you have any questions, don't hesitate to email me: youcanstamp@hotmail.com.
Supplies for my card~ Stamps: Think Happy Thoughts, Computer generated scripture Paper: Celery, Lavender Lace, Whisper White Ink: Lavender Lace, Certainly Celery Accessories: Self adhesive rhinestones, 1/4" celery gg ribbon, Photo corner punch
Supplies for Meg's bookmark~ Stamps: A little birdie told me, Enjoy every moment (polkadot), Computer generated scripture Paper: Certainly Celery, Brocade Blue, Whisper White, Cutie Pie DP Ink: Celery, Bashful Blue Accessories: Round tab punch, SU Markerse in Bashful & Celery, Sakura clear stardust pen, Self-adhesive rhinestones
Have a GREAT Day :) !!!
p.s. I just made some slight alterations to my card, got a better photo and uploaded it...so if you checked in earlier and saw a slightly different card...you're right! It's still not my most favorite card, but I do love that scipture, so I'm going to concentrate on that part and accept the fact that sometimes we all make cards that we're just not crazy about!
hugs & blessings, nancy

Both of your projects are lovely! So crisp and clean. I really like the tab on the bookmark. Nice idea! Interesting that we chose similar verses. My design is here: www.pureinkspiration.blogspot.com.
Have a wonderful day! ~Patti
WOW! You've once again made a spectacular design! I love it!
You're right Nancy - that verse is a great reminder about focusing on Him as our purpose! Love the frsh clean look of your card. Also always love to see what verse your daughter chooses and what you do with it - the bookmarks you make are always so fun!

Nancy - I love your card with it's clean crispness and wonderful verse - the added bling brightens it too! I more especially love your book marks - how wonderful that your daughter picks out a verse she wants on them - this one is so cute with the bird stamp and great colors - and also with an important message.
Just wonderful and an inspiration - thank you!

Oh wow, your creations are amazing!!!
these are so pretty, love your card and bookmark.
Nancy....your card this month is great!! It is very springy, fresh and clean!! I really like how you used the corner punch this time and I peeked at it this morning, and now I love how you added more bling to it!!
I so love your post matching your card!! :) Love both of them!
Beautiful work! Even more than that though---what an encouragement to hear that your daughter is picking verses too. My children are still very young, and I only hope and pray that we will be sharing scriptures with each other then. What a great mom you are! Thanks for sharing! Great idea!
I love the bookmarks! This scripture is one of my favorites! I really hope I have a child that would want me to do things like that when they are in college! You are blessed!
Nancy, your card is beautiful, and your bookmark is wonderful! Thank you for sharing your inspirational scripture! You are such a blessing! {{{HUGS}}}
I love both the card and the bookmark -- love the verses too! Jeanne
Oh, I LOVE this! I've been meaning to jump into this challenge...I'm going to today...
I can't tell you how excited I was to see your card today--this verse is one of my son's declarations (verses he says every morning that particularly apply to his life)!! He's 8. I showed him your card and it brought a wonderful smile to his face!
Both of these cards and Scripture verses are awesome!! My children and I pray each morning on the way to school, and I'm always including Col. 3:23 in hopes that they'll relate it to their work at school, as well as everything else they do.
I love your work! Have a beautiful day!
Such sweet and beautiful cards. Also beautiful inspiration for many. TFS
Nancy- thanks again for a beautiful card.
Heidi
really beautiful card! And I love how you are sending those bookmarkers to your daughter...what a great idea. I did check out the gallery, and you are right, so filled with beautiful creations.
Thanks for sharing!
absolutely, positively adorable!! So sorry it took me a few days to get by here. Definately worth the wait! Love that little bookmark! Hugs!!!
I love the bookmark idea that you share with your daughter. What a wonderful idea. This bookmark is beautiful.
