What have I been up to lately?

Since summer is coming to a culmination, I like to

get my Christmas cards completed during this time,

since it seems to be the only time I get to

enjoy my hobby... :)

 

I had been struggling with a new design

for my Christimas cards, that always takes

so much time...

 

Then I have to think of what the card will

say inside...

 

I love snow men and ginger bread cookies...

So I thought about it and came up with the

following designs and my very own story too..

 

Remember I am not a professional writer.. LOL..

I also have been working on some scarfs for

friends and family.... :)

 

The Ginger Bread Man

By Suzie Brush

 

There was a baker long ago that made an exquisite and unique batch of ginger

bread cookies…(And God formed man of the dust of The ground and breathed

into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.. Gen 2:7)

 

When the baker pulled the cookies out of the oven, one ran away. The baker

was heartbroken and went looking for it.. The cookie was found by a bakery owner

he took it and displayed it on his front shelf for sale.. (What do you think if a man

has hundredsheep, and one of them goes astray, does he not leave the ninety-nine

and go the mountains to seek the one that is straying? Matt 18:12)

 

The baker saw his cookie in the bakery shop self and went inside to get it..

He told the baker, “That is my cookie”.. The baker replied, you want that

cookie you must buy it. (just as the Son of Man did not come to be

served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for  many… Matt 20:28

 

The baker took home his precious cookie and placed it in His house..

He told the cookie “I have made you, I have bought you, now you

are mine forever!” (And this is the testimony: That God has

given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son Jesus… 1Jon 5:10

 

Let me know what you think? Suzie

 

These are the cards I made.....

 

 

These are the scarfs I made....    =)

Love your story to put inside the cards. Scarves in Fl? I think they are very pretty. I love scarves here and have several but I cannot make them. You sure have alot of talents but my favorite is how you pull scripture together for things like index cards, greeting cards or your posts. you are good at what you do. Blessings Kelly

I haven't had a chance to stop by and say hi for a while and I wanted to do that tonight. The crew is all sleeping and I am enjoying the quiet. We are at the lake house and it is so peaceful!!!

what are friends for but to TAG you. Go to my page and answer the questions, please, please. You do not have to but I thought this one was kinda fun and worthwhile. I am making a mini book that I keep seeing from the pages in the scrapbook magazines. I am not sure how it will turn out but my creative wheels are turning. I think they are neat to give to people as memory of our summer gift or a birthday gift or maybe anniversary of whatever gift. I love pictures.

Thanks for stopping by my blog and for your post. In answer to your question, I do stamping and scrapbooking, but have not done either in awhile.... always seem to be too busy... I will try to post some pictures of the last ones i made which has been awhile ago. (lol - I think Feb. -) I can't wait for my order to come so I can get busy making some again.
