This is the quote of my week. If it can go wrong it has. It has been a very long week. The good news is that I am not defeated, and I am back up and running. I won't bore you will all the details, lol. Let's just say I have been tested a few times this week and I am still standing! God is good.
Anyway, now that I am able to post (my camera was not working for a few days) I am gonna try to catch up. Wednesday should have been my Super Set Sampler post. Since this is only week three and I already had a problem posting two out of the three weeks I think I am going to set this aside until the first of the year. I will start it back up then. I did have a couple of cards made to post. The set was going to be The More the Merrier. Such a fun set. It is a level three hostess set. Here are two samples using it.
And then this is my blogger's challenge post. We were to alter something. I have so many frames laying around so I thought I would mess around with my MDS and come up with a hybrid holiday decoration. I really wish I had more time to play with this program. I am sure I will have more time after this weekend and the CROP walk. I can not believe it is this week already. I am soooo not ready, lol. Imagine that!Anyway, now that I am able to post (my camera was not working for a few days) I am gonna try to catch up. Wednesday should have been my Super Set Sampler post.

Love your cards and your awesome frame!! WOW!!!
ReplyDeleteMaryJo,
ReplyDeleteOne thing you can be sure of: If you keep getting knocked down and I know some of the things you are doing, consider that your efforts must be bearing fruit and Satan doesn't want you to succeed. I know you are very active in your church and for God -- keep getting back up! Satan will get the message that you're serious and he'll soon move on to the next person he has to bother -- Love your projects and your convictions!
Fantastic! Great job this week! {SMILES}
