PDCC challenge with colors

I'm joining in the color challenge on this blog today. Sorry I'm not consistent in leaving a little spiritual note but I'm not very inspired on any level at the moment. The only thing that seems to work is the vintage style. So this is my third attempt.


Here is the inspiration picture.

and this is another one I made, which I decided I didn't like to much.

If I could leave a word of encouragement it would be a verse that is a mighty weapon against one of the devil's most successful objectives and that is to bring us under condemnation. I don't know about you but this spiritual stronghold is very strong in this country and before you know it you can feel under condemnation. But the Word of God says
'There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus" Rom.1:1
The only way to oppose it is by proclaiming this Bible verse!

Just adding a little picture of the cherries we just picked from our tree in the garden.


The lavender is getting out of hand, the bushes are enormous. These are not fully flowering yet - I will take another photo later in the month.


Good night.

  6. Jacqueline, I'm so sorry you are not feeling inspired. It certainly doesn't show when looking at this beautiful card! I do know how frustrating that feeling can be though, so I am hoping you soon find inspiration from someone, or something. You are so lucky to have cherries to pick! Yum! And such lovely lavender bushes! Hugs to you!

  15. Your art is beautiful as always; though I can understand how you feel. Another favorite verse I (try to) remember is 2 Cor. 10:4Thank you for being real. Please know you are in my prayers.
