photoshoot...

Photoshop CS4 is a new world to me. To be truthfully honest, it's driving me a little nuts with all the possibilities. I did a Valentine photo shoot with my girls for an assignment and let me tell you, i am in LOVE and I am hooked on CS4. Here is the only picture I took of the 3 of them (and Mac).
The winner of the RAK is: (please email me)








I will share some pages tomorrow... right now my eyes are not focusing right... i think they are little squares. So, till tomorrow: love and a kiss

LOVE this Flickr favorite mosaic: One of my favorite latenight pass times. Now that you have that insight into my life, I want to tell you I am cooking a dinner for tonight: leg of Lamb. roasted potatoes and sweet yams. Good wine. And great friends. The days of this winter is blurring. I have never been this creative all at once. That might be the reason I am not blogging as much! Listening to Today was a fairytale right this moment. Loving life. Never before was Eph 5:20 so real in my life: Because you are identified in the Name of Jesus Christ, you can afford to always overflow in gratitude to the Father, (not for everything that happens to you but) in spite of everything that happens to you; you are not under circumstances but above circumstances because you are in Him!

Love you all! Did I mention that my Photoshop CS4 came in the mail today!!!!! I just have to clean my house before I can play.
Leave me a comment and I will draw a random name and send you something happy and pretty and scrapbookish and pretty!

Happy day!



New @ LittleLightStudio.net! + I made a free digital template!

Valentine...

I love my Starbucks cup albums! They are not only cute but also have the ability to warm the heart just like hot chocolate! This year I painted a Valentine edition and it's up at LittleLightStudio.com. So, if you are looking for the perfect Valentine gift, then head over there.







I promise you i will not drive you nuts with LittleLightStudio stuff. You have to forgive me but we are just still so excited about everything that's happening. Within the next day or two, we will add some stuff to the little shop and it will include a freebie! Here is a little sneak Peek.
I am excited to be working on some paper scrapbooking stuff for the remainder of the week, which is always fun. Valentine stuff is just the most beautiful of all!! Maybe because of the hearts. I think it's because so much of it is pink.


How about some good news? I love this quote: Your life is tailor-made for God He fits you like a glove! Nothing makes your life more attractive and dynamic than the realization of Christ in you! Galatians 2:20 says: What actually took place is this: I tried keeping rules and working my head off to please God, and it didn't work. So I quit being a "law man" so that I could be God's man. Christ's life showed me how, and enabled me to do it. I identified myself completely with him. Indeed, I have been crucified with Christ. My ego is no longer central. It is no longer important that I appear righteous before you or have your good opinion, and I am no longer driven to impress God. Christ lives in me. The life you see me living is not "mine," but it is lived by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. I am not going to go back on that.

my jana.

[Please click the image]
I used Kenner road Flash frames and instead of framing a picture in it, I framed my journaling. They are gorgeous! 2peas released some new digital products today! I am working on some wedding invitations right now... and listening to some music while the girls do their school work.

I read this verse last night and it's just staying in my heart: 1 peter 1: ²Who were chosen and foreknown by God the Father and consecrated (sanctified, made holy) by the Spirit to be obedient to Jesus Christ (the Messiah) and to be sprinkled with [His] blood: May grace (spiritual blessing) and peace be given you in increasing abundance [that spiritual peace to be realized in and through Christ, ^b]">freedom from fears, agitating passions, and moral conflicts].

Smiles!

little blessings.

I made this page today. I used pictures of Tia when she was 4 and 7 and 10 years old. It took me back in time. Oh, how wonderful to have some pictures to look back on. I actually feel emotional just looking at this page. If you click the page, it will open up bigger and I also added some detailed shots in the 2peas gallery. Hey! Once you get to the gallery, say you "like" it! We have a little happening among ourselves and i will appreciate it!
This page was made using Jen Martakis' February digital kit. I used a template by PaisleePress and some elements from the "New Leaf" kit.
then
One of the Garden Girls at 2peas lifted one of my pages for a challenge this week. So unexpected and so happy about it! Go and check it out!
and
If you ever wondered about the
font I use on all my pages and
on this blog, you dont have to
wonder anymore.
You can get it here.



Francois Writes: The most severe contradiction cannot nullify the enthusiasm and joy that the liberating knowledge of truth brings: ‘though the fig tree does not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail and the fields yield no food. The flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls. (This sounds like the curse of Deut.28!) Yet because of what righteousness by faith reveals, instead of guilt and despair and great inner searching of heart, I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my salvation. God the Lord is my strength; He makes my feet like hinds feet, he makes me tread secure upon high and slippery places!’ Hab.3:17-19, James 1:2-4. (Deut.28 is now outdated; in the New Testament it is no longer of any relevance to righteousness! Eph.1:3, Gal.3:10-14, the curse is broken on the cross, Jesus is the sumtotal of every blessing that could possibly benefit mankind!)

little give-aways...

This week we are revealing new classes/projects every day + doing some give aways! Today, if you grab a blog button (from these cute-cute designs) and add it to your blog, you can win a class of your choice. Read more about how this draw works, by heading to the LittleLightStudio Blog.




Some good news today: Gal.1:11 There is absolutely nothing religious about this message; no room for speculation or philosophical debate. 1:12 This message is not the product of religious invention; neither was I spoon-fed by human tuition; my source of reference is the unveiled mystery of Christ in me. http://www.mirror.scripturetext.com/

Little Light Studio!

yes! Little Light Studio is seeing the light today! I can honestly say that Kayla Aimee was the driving force behind all this... she put together the website. I did design the graphics, but that was a small part in the greater scheme of things!

SO!

I am super happy to announce that you can go to Little Light Studio and book your place in my LOVE DIGITAL 101 class. It will start next Monday and I will be in the "class" with you all the way. Before you register just a few things you must know:

• You need Photoshop elements 3 or higher.
• You need to be able to watch a video... go and see if you have issues watching this video. If you don't, then the class should work ok for you. The videos will be on our website and you will be able to download them and keep them on your computer.

The class is absolutely for beginners... if you have traveled a bit on the digital road, and like the pages we are making, you can still buy only the kit.

Add our cute blog buttons to your blog!

This is so exciting!
Talk soon!

MAC

[click the image to see the credits! (and 2peas gorgeous new gallery!)]

I made this page today. And i made it because this mini schnauzer is really one of the biggest joys in my life. I bought this stuffed mini schnauzer today and just had to take some pictures of the two of them.
I have been feeling so blue lately... and you know what? Today I consciously started to bless people. I did some specific things for people I know need a bit of kindness in their life. I didnt have to do it. I did it because forgetting to be generous started to affect my soul. And now I can say thank God for showing me a higher road!
Tonight we are going to see Avatar (yes, again). Have you seen it? Dont you think it's amazing?
Peace and love
Wilna
