SSCC- Something New- ~Time~

Happy Sunday Everyone!! I hope you are all enjoying the weekend and that the weather is nice. It is so nice to be home and have a chance to get some things done yesterday. Today is a day to relax!!!

Today it is also time for another Stampin Sisters in Christ challenge!! This week's host is the "Lovely" Linda!!

Linda chose the verse:

A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. John 13:34-35

What better way to show the love we have for our Lord than to show love to others. God gave us the greatest example of love when He sent His one and only Son into the world to die for us that while we were yet sinners, he could give us eternal life!!! What Grace and Love!!! We did not deserve it but yet He extended His love to us. God commands us to show our love toward Him by extending it to others. Not just to our family and friends but everyone....our enemies, the elderly, the crippled, the blind, the drunk, the princesses and princes, the unGodly....everyone.

By extending our love as Christians, others may see we are Christians and may want the saving faith as well!!

Linda has challenged us to:
Use something new on your project - it can be a new product, technique, embellishment - even a colour combo that is new for you - show us what you got!!

This week's sponsor is Clear Dollar Stamps!!
Here is my creation using a New stamp set from Our Daily Bread Designs-Time and Each Minute!!

The clock is so fun to use!! I had fun adding some clock hands from Tim Holtz. This sentiment is perfect for a birthday card. I had to add some elegant lace and ribbon. The shape is using the Grand Labels One die from Spellbinders (cut out with the Grand Caliber). The dp is from Prima English Rose dp pack.
