Creator - ATC

When I picked the bible verse I wanted to use for the HHN09 challenge: Creator, I immediately thought of two projects I wanted to do. The scrapbook page below with my son, and an ATC (of course)! I love this verse! It's a great reminder that not only is God our Creator, but He is also our Provider. He hears our prayers! I used a stencil for the butterfly which I inked with sponge daubers in various colors. I tried to continue the color scheme on the edges of the card by inking the sides in each of the colors. I then stickled around the lines of the butterfly wings and added jewels to the ends. The verse is handwritten.

The ink colors I used were: Certainly Celery, Positively Pink, Yo-Yo Yellow, and Orchid Opulence.

God is bigger than anything we can face. Big enough for creation and yet small enough to care for the cries of our hearts!

Praise Him!

Creator - A God who answers prayer!

I decided to do an 8x8 scrapbook page for this challenge in addition to the ATC. (I'm determined to make a whole set!)

I used twine to attach the buttons and create a sort of border along the edge of the picture. I added the circle phrase to the top button so that I could tie in my theme of a Creator who blesses us and hears our prayers.

When I think about God as our creator and how He loves us so much that He created the whole world for us, I think about my son. I am so grateful for him! We didn't think we could even have kids, and then Colson came along!

After praying for seven years to blessed with children, I figured that God did not intend for us to be parents. I wasn't terribly upset. I reminded myself that God works everything for our good. I just thought that my good did not include children. Within a few months I found out I was pregnant!!

We haven't stopped rejoicing since!!

I am so thankful for a creator who loves us and doesn't stop blessing us! Even in spite of ourselves!!
