Kristin







The Real Meaning of ChristmasA Christmas Poem



by Joseph P. Martino Copyright© 2003
Two thousand years ago the King of Kings was born.



'The Lamb of God' later made to feel the thorn,



If his words are accepted and not scorned,



They will make us all reborn.Though God's grace,



Joseph and Mary presented



A gift to the world that day, which we can all repay,



by living the ten commandments each and every day.



Try to remember and keep



in your heart and mindJesus's gospel



while here on Earth, Redemption not a life lived in constant mirth.



Peace on Earth, good will toward man



Everyone should try it, whenever they can.



The Lord gave us the option and choice of 'free will,'Now it's up to us to fit the bill.



So when you’re Christmas shopping for family and friends,



and money is tight at both ends,



Remember that the greatest gift of all,



Is your love of Jesus in the manger stall.

NEW CU freebie.. Christmas paper ornaments


Finally a new FREEBIE. So sorry that it has been so long. Lets see I was in the hospital with pneumonia and asthma so that took me out for a couple of weeks it feels like. Any nurses, doctors or sick people know when you are on antibiotics so long they kill your good bacteria and it caused other problems UGH.. Well it's ok I am great now and feeling better everyday.. Is everyone looking forward to Christmas. I sure am the first time in 4 years my husband will be us yay.. Praise God. I love this poem to get into the Christmas spirit.. Hugs to everyone. Please leave some love. My favorite part of doing freebies hehe..
"Twas The Night Before Jesus Came"
written by Audrey Patricia Woolverton

'Twas the night before Jesus came and all through the house
Not a creature was praying, not one in the house.
Their Bibles were lain on the shelf without care
In hopes that Jesus would not come there.
The children were dressing to crawl into bed.
Not once ever kneeling or bowing a head.
And Mom in her rocker with baby on her lap
Was watching the Late Show while I took a nap.
When out of the East there arose such a clatter.
I sprang to my feet to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash!
When what to my wondering eyes should appear
But angels proclaiming that Jesus was here.
With a light like the sun sending forth a bright ray
I knew in a moment this must be THE DAY!
The light of His face made me cover my head
It was Jesus! returning just like He had said.
And though I possessed worldly wisdom and wealth,
I cried when I saw Him in spite of myself.
In the Book of Life which He held in His hand
Was written the name of every saved man.
He spoke not a word as He searched for my name;
When He said "it's not here" my head hung in shame.
The people whose names had been written with love
He gathered to take to His Father above.
With those who were ready He rose without a sound.
While all the rest were left standing around.
I fell to my knees, but it was too late;
I had waited too long and thus sealed my fate.
I stood and I cried as they rose out of sight;
Oh, if only I had been ready tonight.
In the words of this poem the meaning is clear;
The coming of Jesus is drawing near.
There's only one life and when comes the last callWe'll find that the Bible was true after all!

GOOD Sunday Morning. New CU Designer Use Freebie


Good Sunday Morning. This is the day that the Lord has made and I will rejoice and be glad in it! ... Hope everyone is having a wonderful Day. I am going to start to clean up my computer for the new year. Here are some sill little designs I was doodling around with. I hope you enjoy them. Do not be deceived these are very LARGE lol.. They look tiny on the preview..


Let's see well my husbands business is doing fantastic in spite of the economy. We still have a long long ways to go to regroup from our financial disaster of the past 4 years but God is good and I know that HE is a Fortress and Strong tower for those who love Him and serve Him.. We have a small commercial lighting business but the great thing is that we work with the local energy company and right now they offer incentive programs to small business in the area who convert their old lighting to energy efficient lighting. WE make money for helping companies go green. Right now I need to set up a website. I am being pokey. First taxes and IRS forms need to all be filed this week for quarterly so that is my priority. I am working on a new Christmas kit I can not wait to show you. It is adorable.. T0day I am overcoming my foot infection so I am still resting and going to just watch God T.V. today. It is a station that broadcasts around the world. WONDERFUL beautiful people who founded this station..


Have a super day. Please leave some love.

NEW CU Delicate Doodle Frames


Hi ladies and gent hehe Had to not discriminate:) Hope you had a wonderful week. I just can not believe what God is doing in our business. It is growing. Granted the last four years have been a nightmare but the way that things are now WOW what a break for me to actually just breathe for 5 minutes. I am so grateful. One thing though that is so important to my husband is his integrity in the business. HE makes every customer feel like they are number one and makes them feel as though they are the most important customer. We had our first contract in the middle of august and he already has hired 4 subcontractors to work for him. Amazing. My Selah is applying to be in the video club. She is so cute she loves cameras like her mama hehe and wants so bad to be in this club but they want the kids to submit an essay then their grades and behavior are checked before they can be accepted. Last year she was nominated into the academic awards programs for top achievers in America. I am so proud of her. She is only 9 but a pretty amazing kid. She doesn't care much for having a ton of friends, she has never been super"girly" she just like to read, She loves school and she loves learning so I suppose I shouldn't worry that she is not that OUTGOING lol... My son on the other hand loves to get rough and tough with the guys, has friends of all ages and he is 6 and for some reason older girls love taking care of him and they tell him all the time he is their boyfriend so his head is swelled lol.. Ok well enough rambling. Here are some frames. Hope you enjoy them for any use you can think of. Please leave some love I like to see what others like and what elements people actually use in their scrap booking. Have a super weekend

NEW CU Freebie Vintage Flowers


Here is a new freebie. Hope you like it. I have a busy week again we are trying to get our finances cleaned up. What a mess lol.. Ooo well God has never let me down and I am sure He is not about to now. Yesterday our church held a HarvestFest and today they did an illustrated sermon and gave away a couple BIG gift certificates to visitors. We had like 30 people give their hearts to Jesus today. Talk about a humbling experience. It was pretty amazing..

NEW CU Freebie today.


I love the crinkled paper look because it reminds me of Scrap booking on paper not digital so here are some templates I hope you like them. Please leave me some love if you drop by.. I get so much joy out of reading peoples comments. Sorry about the super large file today. REALLY nice large templates.. You can almost use them as a bakground for anything and when colored they look like construction paper. Ooo and apparently everyone liked my doodles so I am going to make some more of those soon. Please pray for Casey and her family from Pretty Scrappy. Her and her family were in the wake of IKE? ugh!! .. Sometimes we get so caught up in our own very small world that we tend to forget that there are millions that need our thoughts and prayers or maybe just a smile. Today my challenge to you is be inspired to do an act of kindness not because others do but because someone at sometime did something nice for you so PAY IT FORWARD..


Blessings

911 IN Honor of America. A FREEBIE in honor

DOWNLOAD HERE
I normally do not do this but this freebie is just for personal use . No commercial use please just enjoy it and honor 9/11. Maybe you can use it to decorate a page in honor of someone who is serving this country or someone who gave their life because of 9/11. Every year I am deeply saddened by 9/11. When the day rolls around I never ever forget how I felt the morning I turned the tv on and watched a plane flying into the twin towers and then to hear it was a terrorist attack. Nothing in my entire life has ever made me feel the way I did that moment and I doubt nothing will ever come close or compare to that again. I remember watching the country come together. People became nicer for a moment in time. People didn't complain as much when they were in long lines. They did not beep as much on the freeway and they were using words like please and thank you again. People went back to church and starting their creator again. People started realizing that life is short and we do not have a spare in the trunk. Unfortunately things went back to the way they were before 9/11. People forgot how it felt that fateful day. They forgot how it impacted their life and the life of those they loved. We have gone back to being in a hurry, cynical and rude. I hope we all take a moment to reflect back this year and turn our eyes back to what is important in this life.. I REALLY hope and pray that we can do that as a country in fact that the world could do that. This was not just about America is about the is happening in this world. We just never seen it hit so close to home.

Please enjoy this and know my heart and prayers go out to the families of those directly impacted in some way by 911!

Sorry for no NEW freebies. I have been Preoccupied. NEW CU FREEBIE


Brand new Fur element and frames freebie. I love this fur. I have no idea of the animal that was put down so I could use his fur for scrapable pleasure but thank you Mr. Animal.. (Please don't be mad, just a joke. I LOVE ANIMALS. I am all for keeping them safe) Any ways the first week of school was YEA YEA good and I started a new check mark system with the kids and it is actually working. I made a table in word and then on top are the days mon-sun. Then in the coloumns are different things like NO FIGHTING, Chores, Homework, brush teeth, say prayers etc. Everytime they complete a task they get a green check and when they fail to complete or something similar they get a RED check.. Those red checks eliminate the green checks and we count them up at the end of the day and I give them dry beans for their jars. I created a gift box. Every Friday they get to turn their beans in for either a gift bag (Which could be more beans, gifts or coal hehe) a prize or they can also turn their beans in for extra tv time or computer time. They love it. They both worked really hard this week to stay on task. There were moments lol. Anyways sorry to ramble. Maybe there is a mom out there pulling her hair out like me thinking of ways to help her kids get control. This really works, I promise. BTW I went to the $1 store and purchased a lot of things that had more than one thing in them and then separated them for prizes. Grabbags were 20 beans and prizes 10 :) I had a blast myself. On to the freebie. Please leave some love and more ideas for the kids if you think of any..

Whoow I made a Store template for my products plus NEW CU FREEBIE

DOWNLOAD HERE
New Pink Flower Element Freebie. Hope you are having a wonderful weekend. I sure am. Today I was a little tired but the kids go back in 3 days yay hehe. I know that sounds horrible right! Ok I love love love my babies but just a little pooped out plus I have had to put business on hold while they were out of their playground program this last month which means no money so now I can get back to work and also helping my husband with his business. Plus I like when school is in because then the kids read, write and learn without thinking I am forcing it on them. They would rather have their teacher tell them and then when they come home we can study together. I really enjoy that as a mom.

Last year my little girl who was in 3rd grade was nominated with a scholastic achievement award and her reading scores were in the top 99% of all children in Wisconsin. I am proud mommy:) Ok so on with the FREEBIE. I made a template for the new store I will be selling in. I am sure I will make some more but it is easier than making a new one for each product. How do you like it? Enjoy the freebie and leave some love

Kids start school Tuesday yay.. Wednesday we needed to take them to class orientation so the kids had a blast and are looking forward to school thank goodness. I am taking my son to get tested to adhd and hopefully this doctor can find some solutions for us that do NOT involve meds. I do not believe in putting kids on meds unless absolutely necessary. Please say a prayer for my Joshie. Keep in mind he is only six but the other day he woke me at 5:30 am to inform me that he was placing bids on EBAY. Thank God he only placed a max bid of 4.50. I can not figure out how in the world he figured out how to log into my new computer and find ebay and PLACE a bid grr. He is very smart I suppose lol..

Ok well have a great weekend and HAPPY LABOR DAY. Can you believe fall is back wahhhh. Last winter was Wisconsin's third worst winter in the history of Wisconsin argh..

I am BACK yay. A new Commercial Use Sampler.. FREEBIE


Hi everyone

I am back from my computer delay hehe. Ok so I ordered this Dell and it was suppose to be here Sept. 2nd and it arrived on the 20th eee. Great well I could not wait for hubby to come home and set it up so I did and it was really easy except that the monitor had all these cords. That was a bit confusing lol. So then I meet VISTA eesh. Very nice but huge RAM hog. Love the decoration is bring though. First thing was my Epson Printer. NOT compatible so I worked on that for a long time installing drivers and such. Well then I needed to install my pspx2 and it loaded whoow great but once i started to install all my brushes and presets blah blah the thing became painfully slow and could barely perform anything on it. ACK! So I decided I was going to uninstall that and try my oldie but goodie psp8. OPENED it and installed everything. The thing ran like GOLD just wonderful until I tried making a 12X12 piece of scrapbooking paper. IT hated that and puked out the words NOT enough Memory to perform this. Ok so I have 3 gig of ram what the heck. Well it came down to reinstalling pspx2 to do my papers on and psp8 I will do everything else on haha. Ohh well if it works right.

I am pooped out from playing with this for 2 days.

Hope you enjoy the goodies. Please leave some love

Good Morning. Sunday August 18th wow

Joshie Spish Splashing away on a Saturday
A happy Saturday in the baby blow up pool

Can you believe that it is nearing the end of August already. Ok so only about 2 more weeks before my computer arrives I think I am going bonkers hehe. I miss my graphics program so when I get my computer and figure out Vista I will be back with lots of great goodies. What are your plans for this Sunday.

Whole-wheat carrot muffins
Bagel spread with cream cheese (you may want to try minibagels for small children)

Cucumber coins


Melon cubes
Cream cheese and apple butter on whole-grain bread


Veggie mix (baby carrots, snap peas)


Dried apricots
Half of a pita stuffed with shredded carrot and mild cheese (or peanut butter)

How about using the following chart to mix and match from?


Select one from each group.
Bread:
Pita (either small individual size or half of a regular-size)
Muffin
Quick bread (banana, pumpkin, apple, etc.)
Whole-wheat bun
Bagel
Tortilla
Raisin bread
Fillings:
Peanut butter, plain or with (pick one) honey, banana, jelly, shredded carrot, raisin

Crisp, tender broccoli florets sprinkled with non-salt seasoning

Raisins or other dried fruits
Drained pineapple chunks (or fresh)
Individual applesauce container

I hope that you can find inspiration in these ideas, and that the kids are excited to find new treats in their lunchbags.
Thanks for reading, and thanks for writing.

WOW ok New CU Freebie and long story lol







DOWNLOAD HERE



HI everyone,




Sorry I have not been around. I did a whole system restore and then put PSPX2 on my computer oh my gosh what a mess. I can not open anything and quickly realized that I need more RAM lol. I have been researching computers but the ones with a lot of RAM are very expensive but I did find a REALLY great deal on a beautiful DELL with plenty of RAM and PSPX2 already installed lol. I wanted to leave you with one more freebie before I uninstall my psp and wait for my new computer. I promise lots when I return.




This new Dell with probably take a few weeks to arrive and I could not even get writing on my preview pic of these Heart Mats lol. Forgive me. Enjoy the freebie. Please do not forget about me and leave some love..




Think about me when you are designing or making your scrapbooks. Too bad I didn't have a sad pouty face for you lol.




Today I took the kids to the beach for pics. Here are a few pics of my beautiful babies..

TGIF:) YAY.. Some NEW CU Freebies


I have been gowing through a growing process of learning what I can and can not do in this digi scrapbook world if I want to sell my product. Somewhat embarrasing that I do not know but I am always willing to learn.. So this week is coming to a close. I am starting to feel better, my cold is starting to subside. Yesterday I had to go into the dentist for 2 fillings. I have not been to the dentist in about 18 years and though if I brushed really good I would be fine lol. I was a little paniced in the chair and today my tooth hurts a little bit but I am thinking that is normal from the drilling. The one side hurts the other side does not..
My daughter is going to her grans this weekend and she gets to bring her best friend Sam so she is very very excited. My baby boy on the other hand gets to stay with me eee... Don't know what we will do but the weather is suppose to be fantastic YAY.. Nothing better than 78 and sunny!! At least that is my favorite kind of weather. Enjoy the dot elements and leave some love please...

God's Colors
Who paints those lovely colors That we see up in the sky?Who caps those awesome mountains With sparkling snow up high?
Who puts a sheen of green Upon each tall and stately tree?Who makes the streams crystal blue Softly flowing magic for you and me to see?
Who makes the sun so warm and bright Then fills it with great power To make the earth spring forth with color With just a little shower?
Who gives each bird the song they sings they fly away so far Who puts those tiny twinkles In each brightly shining star?
Who in Heaven keeps watch upon All of us each day?And blesses us with all this glory As we travel on our way?
The answer is quite simple We all know that it's trites God our Heavenly Father Watching out for me and you!

YAY New CU Freebie. Some really cute elements

How is your weekend going? Mine is going very nice. I got to spend time with my kids today and enjoy them. We went to see College Road trip and it was pretty good. The kids enjoyed it although I think they enjoy the popcorn more sometimes haha.

I created this pretty embellishment because I received a HUGE positive response off of my elegance collection which is also silver. Personally I love silver and am glad that you do too.

Please leave some love and come back soon., Send your friends for freebies too:))

Bright Colorful FREEBIES. Some pretty templates CU!!!

DOWNLOAD HERE
Here is something that looks so pretty to me. The templates and flowers are separate. I just love limes and pinks and pale purples. Hope you enjoy these. I had a wonderful day and hope you did too. I own a small business and today I was cleaning for a client and her kitty who is deathly afraid of other humans came out to see me and on Monday this exact thing happened at another clients. The terrified kitty came out to see me and even came to let me pet her. It made me giggle because these poor cats are so afraid of human life lol... They are not used to visitors apparently but they came to see me. I am the kitty whisperer hehehehe..

Exodus 15:11 says, "Who among the gods is like you, O LORD? Who is like you - majestic in holiness, awesome in glory, working wonders?" No one can accomplish what God can. He is above and beyond our comprehension.

Good Morning Lord

Relax your mind and humble your heart to focus on Christ. Allow God to be the only person on your mind while you read this prayer. If we can take the time to read long jokes, stories, etc., we should give the same respect to this prayer. Friends, who pray together, stay together.

Dear Lord, I thank you for this day. I thank You for my being able to see and to hear this morning. I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God. You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me. Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that was not pleasing to you. I ask now for Your forgiveness.

Please keep me safe from all danger and harm. Help me to start this day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each and every day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You.

Please broaden my mind that I can accept all things.

Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over. Let me continue to see sin through God's eye s and acknowledge it as evil. And when I sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth my wrongdoing, and receive the forgiveness of God.

And when this world closes in on me, let me remember Jesus' example -- to slip away and find a quiet place to pray. It's the best response when I'm pushed beyond my limits. I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my heart. Continue to use me to do Your will.

Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others. Keep me strong that I may help the weak. Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others. I pray for those who are lost and can't find their way. I pray for those who are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray for those who don't know You intimately. I pray for those who don't believe. But I thank you that I believe.

I believe that God changes people and God changes things. I pray for all my sisters and brothers. For each and every family member in their households. I pray for peace, love, and joy in their homes, that they are out of debt and all their needs are met.

I pray that every eye that reads this knows there is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than God. Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight I pray that these words be received into the hearts of every eye that sees them and every mouth that confesses them willingly..

This is my prayer.

In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Faith Tags CU FREEBIE! Hi everyone

DOWNLOAD HERE
Ok so long story short. About 5 years ago my life, my family and everything else was turned completely upside down. It was something I could never in a million years imagine happening to me or my family. After this happened I was put in a very uncomfortable position for me to ask for help from my friends and family. People did not like this nor respond well to this and even though this was the hardest thing that had ever happened to me most people who I loved and cared about most of my life walked away from me and my 2 small children. I was alone just me and God and a few faithful stragglers (My precious mother, my good friend and many strangers). Alone for a very long journey but the one thing I learned and that pierced my heart for eternity was that if I see a need now and I can meet it I will. If I see a mom struggling with her kids I open the door for her, if I see someone stuck in a storm I ask if I can drive them home, if someone needs food I dig out what I can for them to help, if someone is down I smile at them. This has nothing to do with me but with what God has done in my life. As painful as this has been I have learned lessons that would of never been as meaningful or life changing if this would not have happened. My long journey is not even close to over but I can now see a light at the end of this long long tunnel.

The name heartprints is very special to me because to me I want to leave an imprint on people's hearts & lives and I encourage others to do the same. I do not just want to be a bystander and watch life go by I want to be a participant. Any ways I sorry to ramble but I needed to talk to someone hehe. My life was deeply touched and forever changed by a few angels along the way. The more people that walked away made those few angels shine brighter in my life.

You are important to me too and even though we may never meet your life is important to me and maybe a tiny bit of my life can touch yours somehow. Enjoy the Faith Tags because I enjoyed making them.. xoxox

I have created some jean bellies:0).. I figured all week we worked hard it is time to kick back in our favorite pair of jeans and relax. This weekend my baby girl got to go on her first GirlScout camping trip yay. I am so excited for her. She has been a Girlscout for 3 years but you have to be a Junior scout to go camping and until now she was a brownie. She was hysterical with joy getting packed unfortunately today at 1:00 I checked her permission slip and was going to get her packed for tomorrow when I noticed that the slip said they were going today. I screamed out loud Ahhhhhhhhh! Then I had to go get her from rec and then when I told her we had 45 minutes to pack she freaked too lol. It was fun. Well I am exhausted today was filled with lots of hard work.. Hope you enjoy these embellishments. I sure love my JEANS!!
