Triple the Scraps Challenge Word #9: Quiet Quiet is something that is alien in this house.  With three toddlers, the noise volume is almost ear shattering at time.  Right now I am not feeling like I have a quiet and gentle spirit but that is what I want me children to remember. 1 Peter 3:4 ministered to me, it is instruction and direction on how I should strive to be.  Especially now in the chaos I seem to be living in. You should be known for the beauty that comes within, the unfailing beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit which is precious to God.

Triple the Scraps Challenge Word #7: Perfect Patter Cross posted this song but it is so true.  We try to show the world perfection, but in reality, we are imperfected people loved by a perfect God.  Without His love, we would be lost. “Perfect People” Never let 'em see you when you're breaking Never let 'em see you when you fall That's how we live and that's how we try Tell the world you've got it all together Never let them see what's underneath Cover it up with a crooked smile But it only lasts for a little while {CHORUS} There's no such thing as perfect people There's no such thing as a perfect life So come as you are, broken and scared Lift up your heart and be amazed And be changed by a perfect God.

Triple the Scraps Challenge Word #6: Neighbor I have to be honest, I didn't know that there were a lot of scriptures with the word neighbor.  I always knew the "Love your neighbor...."  but the rest of the scripture is ...you will fullfil the whole law.

Triple the Scraps Challenge Word #5: Follow This was an easy word for me.  I have learned early in life that I have to follow Christ.  When I try to make my own path, I always got lost and usually had to start all over.  Recipe: Pattern Paper Prima Flowers tag outline: Storybook cart.

For our next challenge, we were given the word HOME. There were two scriptures that just ministered to me so I journaled both. The first is 2 Corthinans 5:1... Now we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands. (NIV) Second scripture is 2 Peter 3:13... But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the  home  of righteousness. You can find the Scripture Challenge 2010 @ Triple the Scraps Tools used: - stamped and embossed the word home in copper -stamped and embossed the flourish to make a frame in copper -doubled matted the word home and used a pop dot to raise it -house and tag came from Sweetheart cartridge -the fence was made by scrap pieces of a wood border that I had

Abide: For this challenge word, I was led to Psalms 119:161, God, I do what you tell me. My soul guards and keeps your instructions... I follow your directions, Abide by your counsel. My life is an open book before you. (The Message) This is a simple layout and thought of adding something more but then I got to thinking. Why do I try to make everything so complicated? I do the same in life, but I think everyone does at one time or another. Materials used: some pattern paper, don't know the brand Sweethearts Cricut cart A Child's Year Cricut cart cute little flower brad chalked the little girl reading

For Triple the Scrap's Scripture challenge 2010, our word is Temptation. The first scripture I thought of is 1 Corinthians 10:13. Sometimes I can get overwhelm and feel I like I am the only one out there with 1 million thing on my plate. But I know God will not give me more than I could handle. The scripture is: No test or temptation that comes your way is beyond the course of what others have faced. All you need to remember is that God will never let you down. He'll never let you be pushed past your limit. He'll always be there to help you come through it. 1 Corinthians 10:13. - The Message The apple of course represents the first temptation, the tree represents both trees in the Garden of Eden... two decisions. The dove represents the Holy Spirit, our counselor, our helper. Materials used: -burgundy vellum -red and green card stock -the tree is actually a fabric sample from a wallpaper book. I got the book for a dollar at a wallpaper store. -dove was cut ...

I just realized that I didn't post my Scripture Challenge Title page...oops!!! Here is what I came up with. My 4 yr old came home from Rainbows one night and had a cute little flower with her unit scripture... She helped Mama chalk the bright yellow flower with red and orange. She also "painted" the white scripture paper with tan chalk. I think this might be my favorite page of the challenge because I had my little "helper". Cricut Cartridges used: Platin SchoolBook for the letters and numbers. The florish was with the Accents Cartridge.

Our first word of 2010 is... HOPE! I thought this was very fitting. I have a lot of hopes for 2010 for me, my family, my church, my friends. Hope is... one of the three main elements of Christian character (1 Cor. 13:13). It is joined to faith and love, and is opposed to seeing or possessing (Rom. 8:24; 1 John 3:2). "Hope is an essential and fundamental element of Christian life, so essential indeed, that, like faith and love, it can itself designate the essence of Christianity (1 Pet. 3:15; Heb. 10:23)." Unbelievers are without this hope (Eph. 2:12; 1 Thess. 4:13). Christ is the actual object of the believer's hope, because it is in his second coming that the hope of glory will be fulfilled (1 Tim. 1:1; Col. 1:27; Titus 2:13). It is spoken of as "lively", i.e., a living, hope, a hope not frail and perishable, but having a perennial life (1 Pet. 1:3). Easton's Bible Dictionary I used.... -A Child's Year cart for the word hope -Sweethearts cart for the ...
