Good Friday AND . . . JLO in the house!

Okay, first and foremost, I have to admit that GinaK inspired me to post this . I have had this image saved since last year, but I felt it was time to share it with as many people as I could. Note: You can click on the image to enlarge it and to be able to read it better.



I hope you take the time today to thank our Lord God for giving his only Son so that we may be forgiven of our sins. I feel I am not worthy of such love, but in His eyes we are all worthy! Just think of how many generations have been saved or will be saved because of the crucifixion. I also hope you get to celebrate Easter (the day he arose from the dead) with your family and loved ones! We will be going north this Sunday for church and dinner with my parents, so I want to take this time to also wish you ALL a very Happy Easter! :)

Here are a few Easter cards I whipped up this afternoon. They use the GinaK Designs stamp set called He is Risen! I used vellum on two of them. The bg stamp with the different names for Jesus is from Eureka Stamps. This was stamped in basic brown, and then after it dried thoroughly, I used versamark and gold EP for the cross. The vanilla card was gold embossed as well. The pink one has the verse from John 11:25-26 behind the vellum and then repeated again on the inside with Happy Easter. I think my family will enjoy them. The calla lily is for my mom for cooking us dinner. It is a pretty fuscia color.



Also, I received my stamps from Jessica (JessicaLynnOriginal stamps) yesterday, and I am looking forward to playing with them this weekend, too. No one has guessed yet which stamp set I will be using, and . . . I also see that my blog count has rolled past 5K, so . . . whatever I create this weekend could be yours if you guess the correct stamp set. Go to JessicaLynnOriginal and check out the cute stamp sets she has there. If no one guesses, I just might have to pull a name from this post or from March 17th. So be sure and post a guess either way here or on the older post (March 17th below).

Thanks for stopping by!
