an introduction to ME

I am a daughter, a sister, a friend, a wife and a stay at home-homeschooling mother of four beautiful children.{Who you might see on here occasionally} But most importantly I am a child of God, created for his glory. A creation of art with purpose.{need daily reminding of this fact!!!}

Webster's describes art as ": an activity whose purpose is making things that are beautiful to look at, listen to, or read.

Needless to say, I am still a piece of art in the making! Daily being conformed into the image of Christ. I will not be perfected until I am in Heaven with my Saviour. But that doesn't stop me from trying to be more Christ like. �It's the same with my art, some days I am always feeling like I have too much to learn and will never produce some of the awesome things I see out there. And other time I can be really surprised with the results. �But I enjoy the challenge and the push to learn more and grow in my knowledge. Which brings me to why I am here. �I do not profess to be " all that and a bag of chips" as quoted from a good and dear friend. Yet i have a desire to share with others the art that I create. Even if I don't know all there is to know yet. �Art is for fun, and one never knows how it will turn out int he end. It can be spontaneous, planned, but always beautiful to look at. It can put a smile on a down cast face, bringing some much needed cheer. It can tell a story that should never be forgotten. Left there to be seen again, and again by someone who needs that little reminder of just how important they are to you. �

This is why I scrapbook and handmake special cards for the ones I love so dearly. It is one of many ways I can let them know how special and valuable they are to me. And when I am no longer here, I will have left these things behind to remind them of that fact.

FOR: " Blessed are the children of scrapbookers, for they shall enherit the scrapbooks."
