Find Joy


I have played along with Colour Me, Cardabilities, and Triple The Scrap Scripture Challenge. I need a tag for a gift bag; I am donating cards for a silent auction and I like to put them in gift bags and add a tag....two for one, cards plus a gift bag and tag. The awesome sentiment is from a My Favorite Things stamp set. The second scripture challenge word is representative, Gods word tells us that we should show is love in action and in truth. 1 John 3:18 "Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth."

The first word for the scripture challenge is trust, I was inspired by the song "Tis Sweet To Trust In Jesus' and by Psalm 84:12....."O Lord of hosts, Blessed is the man who trusts in you!"  Here is the direct link to this years first challenge. To trust in the Lord is to have no worry, which brings forth lots of freedom, how sweet it is!

Be Amazing


I am super excited to share with you my first experience with the NEW Chameleon Pens, thank you Chameleon for providing them to me! My review is my own and I have not been told to say anything other than my honest opinion. Be sure to check out all the reviews and the Chameleon gallery over at SCS. Here is my review....

Chameleon Pens, Blend!


By Teresa Kline
There are many great features to these Chameleon alcohol pens. The design, the awesome storage box, the ease of blending, the price, and the beauty of your creations... a lot to appreciate. Let me start with the storage box. I am all about packaging, and Chameleon has made these beautiful and functional...totally love the storage box; it's great for storing and for traveling! The price is so affordable for alcohol pens! They are available in the entire 22 pen set, sets of five, or singles; the choice is up to you.

As far as the blending, I was honestly thrilled at how easy these are to use. I would not consider myself someone with advanced coloring skills, but the pen does the blending once it has been fused. Each pen has its own fusion chamber and all you do is fuse (touch) the color nib and the mixing nib. The longer you hold it, the lighter the color will be at the start of your coloring. Super easy and super fun! Use any quality coloring card stock with your Chameleon Pens and let the enjoyment begin!

Chameleon Pens are a specialty, they really are an all in one coloring tool! I cannot wait to see what YOU create with your Chameleon Pens, blend!

Simon Says Stamp Plan On It


Plan On It-My Day Planner

I am soooo happy about the Simon Says Stamp Plan On It stamps and Hybrid dies! I carried a small pocket day planner in high school when it wasn't so cool....lol. I have always been organized and even in the age of tech savvy devices, I still luv paper, calendars, lists, and planners!

I have used the Simon Says Stamp Studio L2E set and the Zen Ink Cube set...luv these colors! I stamped the arrows and fussy cut them and added glue dots, luv the little tabs!

I have put the Plan On It products in a large SU plastic case, it is not quite large enough to store four of the ink pads across the bottom. I would luv to have a container perfect enough for all sixteen Hybrid ink colors(the others are on order...teehehehe)and a couple of rolls of washi tape. The stamp set fits in there as well. Great for taking it all along and keeping it nice and neat.

Here is a photo of it closed, so organized...lol. It looks soooo awesome...LUV!
