Jesus Paid In Full

Jesus paid in full. What a wonderful marvelous gracious living Savior we have!

We are in the middle of the Holy Week. Easter is the most important holiday of the year for the Christian. It is not just a holiday, it is the day we celebrate the day when Jesus defeated the death, the day He redeemed all of us and paid full price. The victorious day!

For you know that God paid a ransom to save you from the empty life you inherited from your ancestors. And it was not paid with mere gold or silver, which lose their value. It was the precious blood of Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb of God. God chose him as your ransom long before the world began, but now in these last days he has been revealed for your sake.
‭‭1 Peter‬ ‭1‬:‭18‬-‭20‬ ‭NLT‬‬

I made this Floral Cross card using these stamp sets and die sets from Creative Worship Stamps:

  • He Proved His Love stamp set
  • Blooming Tulips stamp set
  • Vintage Sheet Music Tile stamp set
  • Wood Backgrounds stamp set
  • Stitched Rectangle die set
  • Stitched Circles 1 die set

Bible Journaling | Take Up Your Cross and Follow Jesus

Take up your cross, and follow Jesus. It is still relevant to these days. What is our cross?

Then, calling the crowd to join his disciples, he said, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must give up your own way, take up your cross, and follow me. If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake and for the sake of the Good News, you will save it. And what do you benefit if you gain the whole world but lose your own soul? Is anything worth more than your soul? If anyone is ashamed of me and my message in these adulterous and sinful days, the Son of Man will be ashamed of that person when he returns in the glory of his Father with the holy angels.”
‭‭Mark‬ ‭8‬:‭34‬-‭38‬ ‭NLT‬‬

In this passage, Jesus clearly explained what it meant to be his true followers to those people who were following him around.

And this is also for us.

Taking up our cross and following Him will lead us to the victorious new life He has provided for all of us. Our cross is for us to carry but He never leave us alone on the journey.

Then He said about clinging on our life will cause us to lose it. God has provided a new life in exchange of our old life. The new life in Christ Jesus is to live in the God’s word and to live out the Gospel so the world can see we all are His followers so they may also come to follow Him.

Though the world will see that we are not part of this world system and rules, we are different. But nothing to be ashamed of to live in the truth of God’s word.

It is not easy. But possible because our God and Savior, Jesus Christ, has overcome the world and He gives us the Holy Spirit to help and empower us to live in obedience when we come to believe in Him and to receive the new life in Him.

How about you today?

As I was meditating on this passage and to remember Jesus’ command for me, I made this mixed media index card as a reminder of this truth.

On my mixed media index card, I used:

  • He Proved His Love Stamp Set
  • Blooming Tulips Stamp Set
  • Vintage Sheet Music Tile Stamp
  • Books of The Bible Stamp Set
  • Typewriter Alpha Stamp Set
  • Messy Block Stencil
  • Oval Mesh Stencil

Mediums I used were:

  • Distress Watercolour Pencils
  • Distress Inks
  • Distress Oxide Inks
  • VersaFine Clair Inks
  • Gold paint
  • White paint

Congratulations Mixed Media No-Bulky Shaker Card

Hello all… I hope you all well and safe. It has been windy, rainy, cold winter days here. Staying warm in my craft room, I made this mixed media, no-bulky, shaker card for the first time. It was fun to try new technique.

I used supplies Sweet ‘n Sassy Stamps:

I made a mixed media background mat using texture paste, Lindy’s Magic Shaker, Finetec Watercolor paint.

I love this new stamp set. I can stamp inside the card with this Bible verse message.

For stamping, I used VersaFine Clair ink pads and Mini MISTI stamping tool. With stamping tool, it is easy to create 2-shades gradient sentiment. After stamping, I dried the ink and fussy cut it with scissors.

I like the result. And I think this my new favorite way of making shaker card. No bulky, flat enough to fit in envelope and mail friendly.

So, have you tried this technique yet?

This is my command—be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.” (‭‭Joshua‬ ‭1‬:‭8‬-‭9‬ ‭NLT‬‬)

This Mini Notebook Book from the December Creative Worship Inspiration is perfect as a start! I decorated the cover using supplies:
