To Love Another Person

Card Making Ideas by Becca Feeken using Spellbinders Victorian Medallion Three - www.amazingpapergrace.com
One more short post to cap off the week :-)  This is a card that I had on my work board that I finished up and wanted to share that uses Spellbinders Victorian Medallion Three, Spellbinders A2 Divine Eloquence and Spellbinders Twisted Metal Tags and Accents.  The sweet stamp is from my stash of Wordsworth from the Hugo Collection.

Card Making Ideas by Becca Feeken using Spellbinders Victorian Medallion Three - www.amazingpapergrace.com
Thanks for all your sweet words of encouragement this week!  I’m so grateful for the community of stampers and crafters that so graciously give the gift of their time to visit – it really means a lot to me.   Oddly, with the world stretched out before me, I’ve found such comfort in my surroundings and have unbelievably become a homebody; being settled is so good for my soul :-)   Very often, the company for the day is the kind word I see on my blog and Instagram; it’s like a sweet morsel, it is dessert,  it is enough, I couldn’t ask for more and again I’m compelled to tell you how grateful I am.  Don’t worry, even if you don’t leave comments, I thank you still because I feel your sweet spirit.  I leave you with a quick snap of the wonderful calendar I have on my desk to greet me each morning – it so inspiring.

Please tuck that away in your mental file folder and pull it when you need it :-)  Isn’t that just a glorious thought?

    Thank you for the inspiring words, I will try and remember them. We have so much to be thankful for but sometimes forget. There are so many horrible things happening in this world that some days it is hard to be cheerful. Family life is important to me and I hope this year will be a happy one, especially for you and all your followers. Love HelenReplyCancel

    Hi Becca,

    Wow! Stunning! Love the use of dies you have used, I find it amazing how you always add two or three die cuts together on the front of a card and they all go together so well. Beautiful creation.

    Love the calender on your desk too.

    Love & Hugs

You reach each one of us every day through your kindness and generosity, you teach, you challenge, you inspire.
    So thank you, dear lady, for sharing your amazing talent and creativity with us every day.
    The words on this calendar page are beautiful, we should think that way always.

    Love the card, especially love the post…and I’m thinking you should (nudge nudge nudge gentle shove) send that last saying to Suzanne at Quietfire – I see her calligraphy alllll over this one…NUDGE :)

    I work from home, and during the day, my community here is the dog and the cat – who is usually off sleeping someplace. I know the power of words through the pixels – be assured yours come this way as well.

    Blessings –

  • Kristine VencelJanuary 25, 2015 - 5:55 pm

    Love the sentiment! Will add it to my journal of sayings. Kind of reminds me of the words the maid in “The Help” said to her young charge. ??
    I am loving this die! I guess frequently using it on the blog helps cement it in our minds, Lol! I can see where it would be a favorite die to use.
    Thanks so much for sharing your wonderful creations!ReplyCancel

I just love all of these new Victorian dies that Spellbinder has bestowed upon us this last release. They are gorgeous. They are so you. Did you have anything to do with them??????

    Hi Becca,
    Things have been very hectic so I’ve ony just now got round to looking at your last three blogs…………….All of which have been absolutely gorgeous and inspiring.

    And here’s a quote in a book that a friend gave me:
    “I wish you the beauty of silence, the glory of sunlight, the mystery of darkness, the power of water, the quiet strength of the earth, the love tht lies at the very root of things”.
    It is such a beautiful sentiment…………. uplifts me every time (as do all of the quotes in that book.
    Hugs, RoseReplyCancel

    Oh rats, two typos – hope you can forgive, but I’m sure it doesn’t detract from the quote.ReplyCancel

You have truly been an inspiration to me and have inspired many a Spellbinders purchase.

    I am always inspired when I see you have a new post and today’s was one I really needed. My life situation has taken a turn for the worst and I was in despair but after looking at your beautiful design and reading your calendar quote I find myself in awe. That someone who has gone through so much and has shared so much and received so much still has the compassion and humility to be greatful in such an outward way. Your site name “Amazing Grace” takes on a whole new meaning for me today. May he continue to use you to inspire all who cross your path.
    With much gratitude.

  • Charlotte ZweigoronJanuary 27, 2015 - 12:45 pm

    I know just what you mean, Becca. Real or imagined, this electronic world provides us with so much support. I choose to see it as a real connection between hearts and minds that we are blessed to have at the touch of a few buttons. I never realized how many people were visiting my site until I checked the stats quite by accident one day. Only a small portion of them commented so I had no idea how many there were. It was a small joy to learn that. Hopefully, you see the numbers of us who visit consistently but only comment occasionally, too. Additionally, I have been following you for about 5 years and have seen every post; went all the way back to the very beginning to see what I had missed and then check out every new post. I still struggle to see things the way you do that makes your creations so fabulous. There is a rare vision for these things in your mind and it is a special creative gift that can only be partially duplicated with great effort by those who don’t have it. Create on, lovely lady.ReplyCancel
