Happy Tuesday To You
I had planned to post a recent stamp project tonight, but have had problem uploading from my iphone. Will try again tomorrow.
I am busy planning a stamp party at my place at the end of August. My goal is to make one new project a night but I'm starting to think that is not possible, maybe one every other night would be more obtainable. I haven't come up with a name yet. The theme will be around Summer events like hot air ballons, pinwheels, ice cream cones, carnivals and such. Any suggestions are so welcome!
Just watched a new TV show called Unnecessary Roughness about a therapist (mental health) working for a football team. Both are at the top of my list of things I enjoy. (chuckling to myself) I really enjoyed the show. The main character is female & a therapist. She was able to put a $3 million dollar a year wide receiver in his place! It was a funny & touching show.
Will sign off now. Say a prayer for my photo program & me that I can upload photos tomorrow & post them here.

Welcome Everyone
Welcome to my newly designed blog. This is a place for me to share my love of scrapbooking, card making, and generally any kind of paper crafting. I believe each one of us is born with creativity, and sometimes it just needs to be awakened - "Awaken Your Creativity"
I will also be sharing my experiences with depression. Creating heals! It is so true. Depression is so very difficult to understand for those that don't have it and even for those who do. I'm afraid that there are many people will never be able to understand.
Even though I have attended, Sunday School, Bible School & church since I was young, it is only now that I am learning what is in the Bible and how much of it fits into my everyday life. It also has great healing powers.
Thanks for dropping by, I hope that you find something here for you.
I'll be posting pictures of my craft soon.

Blue Christmas
I'd like to share some of Pastor's message from our service last night & a few of my own.
Why Blue Christmas? Because the joy of the season is absent. And, because the heart of the season is Christ - our encouragement in and out of season. Because I frequently have difficulty finding the words to express myself, these sentences really spoke to me. There is so much emotion unseen in our lives that when someone can put words to it provides so much clarity, which is often tied to treating depression which I can relate to as key to my healing. It has become my mission to educate my little corner of the world and those suffering with depression & their loved ones as they look to you for help.
First and foremost, being blue is being human. Don't let anyone tell you to get over it, or just get out of bed and go to work. You will have to lovingly excuse that person for their ignorance. Psalm 88 - for my soul is full of trouble and my life draws near the grave. I am as one without strength. I am set apart with the dead.
Feeling utterly alone and abandoned by all or "the darkness is my closest friend" is what depression does to us. That is your clue to find someone who can council you through it. You may not want to see another day, but I promise you that it will get better.
How many of us are struggling financially and maybe we are even homeless? Christ Jesus, who is fully human and fully divine, was born poor and homeless. He knows how we feel! But wait, there's more. When he died he was criminal, crucified and rejected!!
I'd like to leave this jewel with you. Christ Jesus is our Savior. That is just a little too vague for me, but when it is explained that He doesn't take away my loss, sorrow or suffering but he joins me in it! That is just powerful.
Pastor thank you for the words.
