What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday 329 & Please, help?

 The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children,  To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed.  Titus 2:3-5


Good morning!  I have had a great week-end and week of fellowship in God's word and with other Christian women!  We had a great Women's Retreat this past week-end which lead into a wonderful new Bible study!  Titus 2.  Wow!  It is the study of how older women are commanded to instruct the younger women by their lives of living out the word of God. Now I knew this but now we will apply what we are learning!  That is my homework this week to memorize the verses at the top. Anyway, just had to share this.

Also, I thought I would share that in order to see a demonstration, I had to download a new app: Periscope.  You watch the demonstration or whatever it happens to be on your phone or tablet, live. You can even comment or ask questions! Here is a link to a Periscope about Periscope.(it will only be there for 24 hours after scoped.)  Just thought if you never heard of it this would tell you a little bit. :) And the scoper answers your questions.  Is anyone else doing this?  I also, to have this app , had to have a twitter account!  Oh, my goodness, am I in the electronic world or what?  So this is really a matter of prayer for me, to not spend too much time with all this electronic, Blogging, and the rest of this online stuff.  To disciple the younger women, I must spend time in God's Word! So really need to pray to use my time wisely. 

What is the help I need, besides prayer?  I am showing you my desk.  I began a project today.  The black dusty looking container ( I really did clean it.)  is a make-up container, from which I removed the lighted mirror from the top, because the lights didn't work.  But I love it for keeping make-up on top of my bathroom vanity.  So, my idea was to glue some fabric or paper in the top part. I don't have fabric, then remembered this package of 15 sheets of adhesive backed fabric that I bought at Tuesday Mornings, several years ago!  Bingo!  What do you think?  Good idea?  I like the solid turquoise color over the striped, what do you think?  The other help issue:  See the lazy susan?  It was something that belonged to my late mother.  The dishes that went in it were broken or I could have sold it as an antique.  Anyway, use it for my paints?  Any ideas?  Oh:  and with my Memory Mists; I use them once and then they are stopped up.  What do you do about this problem?  In the bottom part of the  photo is my new Copic holder.  It is actually a Noir marker holder. :)

I apologize for funny way words are above.  Can't find how to correct it.  Believe me I am electronically challenged!   Please bare with me. Thank you.

I finished my British Isles album this week!  Yay!

I also tried a new technique for two Christmas cards this week: Screen Divider Card

That is what is going on today in my area!  Now to go see what you are doing!  Thanks for stopping by and for any help with my questions!  Oh, and don't forget to check out all the other deskers at Julia's Stamping ground!

Card Making, Scrapbooking, Memory Verses & WOYWW 296

 Col. 3:16-17 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord. And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus giving thanks to God  and the Father, by him. 

What?  Another week gone by?  Happy What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday!  So, as part of this desk hop of Julia's at Stamping Ground, I am showing you what my desk looked last night. I was making kits and getting ready for card making for our Encouragement Ministry Wednesday after Bible Study.  Last week one of the dear ladies came over and we worked together on two die cutting machines, cutting dies of our Bible verses.  Last night  I made up kits for all the different cards.  Now that is all packed up to take with me this morning.

Then I am showing you a new addition to my craft room.  Hubby put together this desk that was my Mom's.  Don't know what I am going to use it for, but it already has the top surface full! LOL  

There is my  scrap page for my February Scraplift Challenge on Splitcoast Stamper.  If you are a scrapbooker, come join us!  Last month we had 16 entries.  No prizes, just fun!

Last there are photos of my memory verse project.  I memorized Col. 3:16-17 when I was participating in Busy Mama's 31 day Bible study of Col. 3. This was a wonderful study, and I love these verses and hope to truly apply them to my life. I am doing pages of my verses and putting them in this flip frame, so I can keep them on my desk handy and  in view.  I put these verses on Gelli print backgrounds that I had prevously done.

Thank you for stopping by!  Have a wonderful Wednesday.

What's On Your Workdesk? Wednesday 285 & Enamel Dots

   Good morning WOYWW Deskers!   And good morning to the rest of you, too!  In retirement, my mornings begin later and later!  It has snowed here and has remained on the ground  for 4 days so far, and my Dear Husband and I are already suffering from cabin fever!  What will it be like in the dead of Winter?!  So, I went over and took a photo of my work desk for today's desk hop sponsored by Julia at Stamping Ground.  Check over there for all the details.  I have begun work on my gift calendars, well at least cutting them out.  Thanks to a dear Splitcoast friend, we will have them again this year!  Also, I am still working on the Virtual Srapbook Night Challenges which last the whole month on November on Splitcoast Stamper.  But, now will get this post up, and then go to the Mall to walk to get my 10,000 steps (at least).  These last four days I have made paths in my house from indoor walking! LOL
     This past week-end I went to a wonderful Ladies Bible Conference with Susan Heck as a speaker.  She is a wonderful inspiring speaker and spoke on Bible Memorization and the Titus 2 woman, dicipleship.  I came away with a new attitude to memorizing scripture, by the book.  I am beginning with Titus.  That is a small book. :)  Ask me about it from time to time and hold me accountable!!!!

    I have included some scrapbook pages I finished this last week.  I will come by and see you when I get back from my walking. Did you notice up in the right hand corner, that I am walking the Pacific Crest Trail, virtually?  Thank you for stopping by!  Oh, I almost forgot, several have emailed me and asked  for the Homemade Enamel Dots directions. Here it is: Enamel Dots Tutorial

What are those stickers on my Ott Lite organizer??? LOL

For our Alaskan Cruise Album

Road Trip

Also took part in Virtual Stamp Night card challenges.
The challenge was to use an ice cube on your card!

Memory Verses

      Good afternoon this first day of June!  I hope you all are doing well.  I wanted to answer one of your questions today.  On one of my posts someone noticed my Memory Verse holder or what I use to display my memory verses, and asked what it was. It is an acrylic easel, that originally came from Ikea.  It was something I got for free at my daughter's church for spending a certain amount of money in the church bookstore.  But Ikea sells it for $9.99. So I just thought I would answer that question and show my verses to you.  I wanted my memory verses to be handy to look at and to review.
      I am using the Splitcoast Stamper Mixed Media challenges as backgrounds to showcase my monthly memory verses.  I even figured out how to put a blinkie on my Blog for the challenge! Well, with the help of several SCS friends!

   

   Joshua 24:15  April's Memory Verse 
Mix-Ability April Showers Challenge:  Mist, Splash, Spray, or Squirt your project ... create puddles if you dare!  The background on here is one of my first Gelli Plate prints, then spritzed with re-inker and water.  The stamp is B Line Designs.  Verse is Stampability.

  Rom. 8:38-39 May's Memory verse
Faux Tile Challenge:  First, pick 3 colors of paint, ink, watercolor, etc.  Use Tape to mask and paint the lines.  I used post it notes. LOL  Also to get my verse on here (for which I had no stamp) I printed off the computer on vellum. The dies used here are:  MFT Dinamics Leafy Flourish Die, and Verve Cut Above Cross die.  The leaves are from Bird punch by SU!

Add Side view of the acrylic easel.  It has enough slots for 12 verses on 4" by 6".  I would think I could add more easily enough.

Well, Happy June!  Thanks for stopping by! Please let me know you were here! :)
