Word Art #7 My kids are Angels....

As I said in an earlier post, I have a little wooden sign in my house that has this saying on it. Only mine says " My Wife is an....." I wanted to make a word art using this cute saying, but thought it would be so much cuter if I used "Kids" instead. Hope you like it! Leave me some comments.....His, Teri

Fruit of the Spirit WordArt

As promiced, here is the Fruits of the Spirit wordart. I love how it turned out. I want to show you what I have done with some of my wordart. I will try to get a post tomorrow, about it. I made prayer journals. Anyway, you will see. So, the fruits are all gone, but I am going to start working on an Outdoor Theme for the summer, camping, fishing, swimming...so check back. I am blown away at the downloads on the princess overlay! Lot's of little princess's out there! I am so glad that so many of you can use it! Well my daughter is home sick today so will keep this short and sweet! Baskets of Blessings for all of your fruit, Teri

Welcome to our world, Michaela.....

The day has finally come, our first granddaughter arrrives! We are so blessed to have a grandson living close to us and now, to have a grandaughter too! It just can't get any better. We leave in about 6 hours to go see her for the first time. My prayer is that we will be the best grandparents we can possibly be to her and her BIG brother. We want to show Christ to them in the way we live our lives before them. I look forward to holding her and singing to her ( I love to sing ) and just wasting away hours enjoying the fact that our son and daughter-in-law have a new blessed addition to their already perfect family! Thank you Lord, for the gift of life. May we never forget that children are a gift from God! So, since God has given us a special gift today, I have one for you too. I made this several weeks ago and wanted to wait until today to post it on my blog. I bought her a little outfit for a shower gift and on that outfit was the saying " If the Tiara fits..." well I am sure it will. I plan on using this on something I make for her in the near future. I hope you can find a use for this.... and if the Tiara fits.....wear it!

New Word Art and more Fruit and a Blessing too!

Well I had a wonderful anniversary. And now, back to the real world. When I got home and hubby went to bed, I came and checked my email. I found this beautiful blessing layout that a lady, Sue Peart, had sent me from Australia. I was AMAZED! Isn't is wonderful? I am so glad she shared it with me. I emailed her and asked if I could put it on y blog and she graciously agreed. I hope it inspires you as much as it did me. I love the simplicity of the white backgrounds, but this is equally nice. I am going to give you guys another "piece of fruit" and the next word art I have ready to go. I saw this on a sign and loved it! I am going out of town for a few days to our house in the Texas hill country....ahhhhh I can feel the Frio River now...but I will post something when I go to the little library a few miles up the road. I may be slower in responding to emails, so be patient with me. Thanks again Sue for sharing your beautiful layout! Have a great weekend and enjoy your family and friends. His, Teri

Lord of the Harvest and a Question?

My husband is a real live American Farmer! I am so grateful to have a hard working, God loving, faithful husband. This is the time of the year that we harvest our crops and I have been taking pictures of him harvesting our grain sorghum. Talk about big boy toys! He has to depend on the grace of God and trust in him for everything he does. He has no control over the rain, or lack thereof, and God has been faithful, as promised. I have been wanting to do a Word Art with this scripture. I like how it kinda looks like a crown, don't you think?

Here is my question? I was wondering what yall (texas talk) are doing with my Word Art? I plan on making cards with most of them but I have made a journaling notebook cover with the Psalms 31 I made. I will post a picture of it, and instructions on how I made it. Anyway, if you will, take a minute and post a comment on what you are using it for, or even better email you layouts and I will post them on my blog! Here is the scripture that was the inspiration for my design.

"And Jesus went about all the cities and villages teaching in their Synagogues, and preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Then saith He unto His disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He will send forth labourers into His harvest" (Matthew 9:35-38 KJV)

For This Child I Prayed

Today was a great day! I finally learned what my soon to be "1st" grandaughters name will be. Michaela Annette Mayo and she will be called "Annie" I love it! My daughter-in-laws grandmothers name was Annette and my mothers name was Ann. My dad fondly called my mom "Annie Belle". I think it is a great way to honor both her great grand-mothers! As soon as I heard her name, i thought of this scripture from 1 Samuel 1:27 and I wanted to create a word art to use for something for her! I hope others will find a use for it too! Sorry about the pink, but I couldnt help myself. It should be easily converted to what ever color you choose. Blessings and Grace for today!

Come and get it here:

I am going to re-post a couple of my freebies because I did not save them in a .png file. I understand this is better for most of you to use. I would like to take this opportunity to tell you gals that I am absolutley blown away at how many of you like what I have done. It is such an incouragement to me. If you will allow me a minute of your time to tell you alittle more about me. My mother died of cancer at the young age of 47 and I too, had breast cancer at 35! Before I knew I had cancer I was talking to the Lord one day and I remember it like it was yesterday.... I said that whatever it took.... I wanted to be used by Him. I wanted my life to count for Him. My mom became a Christian through her cancer and what a testamony to my and my husband. I was 20 and she told me one day (when she was in an incredible amount of pain) that if that is what it took for her to know the Lord she would go through it all again. Whew....what an example she was to me. I knew when I lost my hair that my hair was not who I was and losing my breast...well that was not who I was either. I did just 2 years ago have reconstructive surgery. That will have to be another post, but my point is this... I still want to be used by my Lord. I am so happy to be alive and while I would not ask to have cancer again, I am a better person for it. And this verse, (bet you never thought I would get to why I am telling you guys all this...lol) was one that I trusted in then, and still is my life verse! So enjoy and encourage others with it! Blessing and Grace for today, Teri

Word Art Freebie #1

Ok so here is my second freebie for you all. It is a Word Art that I made a while back, I posted it in the gallery but did not know how to share it with others. I hope you like it and can find a use for it. It happens to be my favorite scripture, and it was one I came to rely on when I was going through cancer 15 years ago. I am so glad that we can know that our times ARE in HIS hands and not our own! I want to use it on cards to share with freinds and family who are going through tough times. I better get busy scrapping...
