Day 27: Trust in the Lord

Still working on Walk to Emmaus notepads and pens. Here's a new pattern.

Day 26: The Cross

Tonight I worked on more notepads and pens for the Walk to Emmaus coming up. I changed to a cross pattern of paper, (The Paper Studio) to change things up a bit. Also, I am finding that the best double-sided tape for attaching the covers to the notepads is Terrifically Tacky Tape by Provo Craft.

Day 20: Girls' Night Out

Our church offers Girls' Night Out once a month, so my friend Michelle and I attended together. She worked on her son's tae kwan do album while I worked on notepad and pen sets. I used scrapbook paper that had the lyrics to Amazing Grace (paper by Flair Designs) and the "There is a time for everything" scripture from Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 (paper by It Takes Two) to make the covers for the notepads and the inserts for the pens. I am making the notepad and pen sets to give to people who attend the local Walk to Emmaus spiritual renewal program. I attended Walk to Emmaus last summer and Jesus really put it on my heart to make some different choices in my life. As a way of giving back for all the love, grace, and prayers that were given to me, I decided I would make notebook and pen sets for the new pilgrims who attend Walks after mine.

Day 5: Desk Sets

Today, I worked on making desk sets. I covered wooden "gift bags" with scrapbook paper, and made a coordinating notepad and pen set that fit in each "gift bag". These would look great on a desk, bedside table, or telephone stand and would be so handy when you need to make a quick note about something.
