I thought it would be fun to do a video this Sunday so you would see my process from start to finish. I hope you enjoy and just ignore the part at the end where I imitate God, sometimes I get a little wacky when I create! LOL

Reflect Sunday | Finding Foundation in Your Fault

Happy Sunday friends, I am so glad you are here! As you may know I was at Influence Conference last week and am still soaking in all the information I took in. Whitney English was one of the speakers and when I sat on the floor of the overflowing conference room I knew I was in for a treat!

When Whitney spoke it went straight to my heart. This idea of finding foundation in your fault is something I have recently discovered. You see sharing with YOU that I wasn't "into" my bible and didn't feel a desire to read it before I started in my journaling bible. Sharing that with you guys was HARD, it left me in a vulnerable place. I was met at that vulnerable place with one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. The response has left me speechless at times, brought chills down my back several times a day and tears in my eyes a couple times a week.  Which is why I can't do ANYTHING short of urging you to do the same! What is your fault, where can you build a foundation with God that no one can break?

Verses 

Philippians 4:13

2 Corthians 12:9-10

1 John 1:9

Romans 5:3-5

I wanted to share my process this week on how I reflected on this and journaled about it: 

Alpha Stamps | Gold Rub-Ons | Polka Washi Tape | Journaling Pen | Stamp Pad | Bible 

A couple side notes: You can see in the first images the heart on the right hand side, that is the first time I experienced bleed through and that was using a dye based ink, I have not experienced that with Staz-On or versamark. The kraft alpha stickers are from the Target dollar bin, SCORE! And the last image is showing you what the backside of the foundation page looks like. 

I am curious to see where you take this and if you find the same freedom in finding foundation in your faults. God loves you right where you are at, there is a reason you have the faults that you have. Just take a moment to soak it all in!

Friday Favorites | Kit edition

Happy Friday!! We all know that Studio Calico makes the best alpha stamps in town, so when I saw one pop up in the shop I bought it RIGHT away.  After I got the notification that it was on it's way to me I thought to think about fun ways to use this alpha and one of the first things that popped into mind was WATERCOLORS! I mean seriously hello, the designers over at SC are so smart!

I love the different sizes and mixed upper & lowercase I can't wait to base many many layouts on using this beautiful set of alphas!
