I made this card a couple of days,
then realized it would make a
great card for a guy if it was in
different colours. I happen to
have a guy birthday coming up so
I used brown and red for the
second one.
It took me a while to figure out how
to stitch this. Sometimes the
patterns aren't very clear especially
when they are very detailed as this
is. So I slept on it. The old adage
is true. I woke up the next morning and
all of a sudden I understood how to
stitch it. I love how they both turned out.
I saw this on Facebook and thought
it was worth sharing:
I don't know about you, but I forget
this quite often. Recently I've been
dealing with something that is
pretty much an aggravation but seems
a big deal to me. I need to learn to
put things into perspective, for one
thing, but I need to remember to lean
on God and let HIM handle the day
to day aggravations-and worse-
because He sees the big picture and I
don't. In the end it all turns
out OK usually, but I don't think that
far ahead. He knows what's going on
and the whys and wherefore's. I know
I should trust Him more but sometimes
it's hard not to take things into my
own hands-or at least try! So I pray
frequently that he strengthens my faith.
Happy Wednesday!
