With Every Little Birth Card---Join Us for Some Fun in our "Anything Goes" Challenge with No Twist at 613 Avenue Create!

Hi there, fellow Crafters.  It's late night Sunday and I want to share with you the project that I made for today's  Anything Goes Challenge in  my neighborhood, 613 Avenue Create.  It was a wonderful day at Church and my family had a great time in our fellowship with other believers.  Our Pastor brought us the third part of the message about the Cross and how the sacrifice of Jesus Christ is the only one of it's kind throughout history.   Every religion on earth agrees that something is wrong with man yet not one of these so-called religions pin-pointed the "root" of the problem therefore, they could not come up with a complete and eternal cure.  The Word of God identified the problem---the cancer that afflicted us all called "SIN" and the "ONLY CURE" is none other than the "CROSS of JESUS CHRIST ."  This CURE is "FREE" for everyone who would receive it. If taken by faith, every person will experience complete recovery.  In fact, it will change us so radically in the inside as if the "cancer of sin" never existed.  Unlike physical medicines we take where results may vary, this CURE will only result to VICTORY for them that believed.  You see, like everyone who is born into this world,  I had inside of me this cancer of sin that separated me from Almighty God.  I was sure to die from it---BUT GOD!  God through His infinite love for me brought me to His Son, Jesus Christ, who took on my sin and all of mankind's cancer---nailed and defeated it at the Cross!  Now , this cancer called the "SIN NATURE" no longer live inside of me...I am SET FREE!  Because Jesus Christ resurrected, He sealed my victory.  Now, I can look forward to an eternal life of purpose and meaning in the arms of the ONE Who gave His life to be the cure for me and for everyone that believes.  JESUS, You are truly amazing!  Want to share with you these verses to remind us of the life we have in Christ.

"You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."  (Romans 5:6-8)

"See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. All who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure. Everyone who sins breaks the law; in fact, sin is lawlessness. But you know that he appeared so that he might take away our sins. And in him is no sin. No one who lives in him keeps on sinning. No one who continues to sin has either seen him or known him." (1 John 3:1-6)

"What shall we say, then? Shall we go on sinning so that grace may increase? By no means! We are those who have died to sin; how can we live in it any longer? Or don’t you know that all of us who were baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were therefore buried with him through baptism into death in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, we too may live a new life. For if we have been united with him in a death like his, we will certainly also be united with him in a resurrection like his. For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body ruled by sin might be done away with,that we should no longer be slaves to sin—because anyone who has died has been set free from sin.Now if we died with Christ, we believe that we will also live with him."  (Romans 6:1-8)

For this Card, I am very grateful to use an image provided by one of our sponsors this week, A Day For Daisies called "Tummy" and I colored it using my ProMarker/Prismacolor markers.  The white base of this card is cut and scored to make a 5.5 inches square card.  The DP's are from Paper Studio and Recollections.  The die-cut lacy circle was cut using Nestabilities and Cuttlebug.  I layered a Prima flower with a couple of other flowers from Recollections and included a green ribbon from my stash.  I used some glitters (Stickles-Crystal) to add dimension to the flowers and glitters (Stickles - Red and Turquoise) for the image's dress and hair.  The shape on the border was accomplished by using an MS Punch and a Crop-a-dile. The stamped sentiment is from Cloud 9 Design.  Lastly, I stitched all over this card.
