Divine Design Bible Verse Challenge 09

Hey, everyone!

This month has been super busy for me, as far as crafting goes. I love it!!! I have been able to make handmade birthday cards and give them out for our family having a birthday except for one and it will be a little late due to the winter storm we are having here!

One of my goals for the new year was to read my Bible more and study it...not just read a scripture or two and go on, but actually dig into the Word and search out the scriptures for myself. I haven't done as much of that as I wanted to but I did start a challenge with Amber and Christina that I share here on my blog each Wednesday. I found another challenge and was very excited about it on SplitCoastStampers. HERE is the link if you want to read more about it. It's a once a month challenge so I thought I could handle that! LOL

Here is what I came up with....a scripture book, sort of like a perpetual calendar. Here is the outside cover. I love that my shiny purple and white ribbon go with our Winterberry paper (V-903) so well. I printed the title from a computer program I have. The purple dots were made using my purple Tombow marker from the Brights set (F-01) and a 6" plastic canvas heart. I just lined up a square portion of the mesh heart and poked the marker through each hole. It was lined up perfectly! I chose to get the hearts because it has straight and curved lines so I can use it for many different projects! The chipboard covers are 4x4 squares (H-102) and you can use ¾" black binding wire if you want (F-531). The Bind-It-All is item #F-506 annd you can get it half-price! Just ask me how.
The inside pages are 3¾"x3¾" of black cardstock (V-215). I used my Dymo label maker for the months just to make it quick and easy. You could easily stamp the months using Calendar Doodles (T-2819) and in any ink color you choose. I am not crazy about the orange labels but it will do! LOL I selected a scripture for each month of the year and I will share that with you each month. I know it is sort of late in the month now but I would like to share this month's scripture with you. It's a great verse to remember anytime of the year. It is found in 2 Corithians 5:17 (KJV) and it says:
Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.

I hope you are inspired to make a book with the Bind-It-All. There are so many different things you can make. I love mine and it makes gift-giving so much easier now!

Hugs,
