Hi! I am Chris, also known as Glowbug on Splitcoaststampers. I live in Appomattox, VA. I so much enjoy blogging and the so many good friendships that have formed as a result. During my free time, I am creating cards or projects and I so enjoy Challenges. I have a very supportive husband, Scott, who understands my addiction and two young daughters,Meghan, 9 and Nicki, 12 years of age, who can't wait to get their hands on my stamps and embellishments. I was an elementary school teacher until my youngest was born. I have now been blessed with the opportunity to teach my two girls at home. I use stamping as a hobby or way to escape.

Good Morning Friends!  I hope you are all doing well!!  It seems like I have little time to craft or blog lately.  Life is so busy and continues to become busier as spring arrives and yard work must be done.

Today I am popping in to share a card using the beautiful and fun Hug in a Mug stamp and die duo, Mini Cups and Mugs dies, Latte Love 6x6 Paper Pack, Leafy Edged Border die, Beautiful Borders dies, Pierced Rectangles and Rectangles dies.

This sentiment reminds me of the verse:

Matthew 26:

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[a]?.......
 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

This is a card for encouragement.  To symbolize taking one day at a time, I used seven cups.  What a wonderful reminder.  Life can be overwhelming at times.  Trusting God to take each day as it comes is a wonderful piece of advice.

I hope you have enjoyed my creation.  Thanks for stopping by and for your comments!

Good Morning Friends!! I hope this post finds you all well and enjoying nice weather.  The weather has been very up and down in our area.  Winter just wants to stay. It has been a rough winter for so many in the country. It seems like spring weather is on it's way.  With spring, however, comes tornado watches it seems.  We were hit with our first tornado watches last week.

With the arrival of spring and flowers comes the arrival of bees and butterflies.  Today's card uses the darling The Greatest Gift Stamp Die Duo released this month as well as the Fancy Circles Dies, Filigree Circles Dies, Pierced Circles Dies, Bitty Borders dies, Double Stitched Pennant Flags dies, and Boho Bolds Paper Collection.

This card is a 5x5 inch square card.  The border of the card is framed with the Bitty Borders dies.  The butterflies are colored with copics.  There are many awesome sentiments for Mother's day in this stamp set.

Proverbs 31:25 She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.
