Hello friends,
Today we are sharing the Sneak Peeks of 2 of our Brand New Releases that will be in the INSPIRED STAMPS online store beginning NOON Friday! Thank you all for your excitement about these sets: We love them, too! Sneak Peek #4 is a redesign of one of our most popular stamps: NAMES OF JESUS. It is ONE 4x6 STAMP that has as many of the Names of Jesus as we could fit in one stamp: Perfect as a background stamp used in cards, scrapbooking, and other art projects!
Today the Design Team was asked to use SCRIPTURE in their artwork today and here is the beautiful artwork they have created with Inspired Stamps to inspire YOU to create some too! I started this post off with Chere's very creative Hershey Kiss Container...LOVE how she used the 1 inch circle sentiments on the bottom of each kiss and the TAGS set to make the tag on top and the scripture from that set around the container! Such a great gift idea!
Chere:
Deneen made these beautiful BOY and GIRL Scripture cards using Inspired Stamps NEW BABY/PREGNANCY set :
Patty used textured cardstock to get this distressed stamp look on her card using the LOVELY LACE stamp set and FLOWERS in the background:
Gaby used the $3.99 set: 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 on her beautiful card:
Jenn used the $3.99 set Ephesians 5:20 for her colorful card:
Leesa created this beautiful card using a portion of the 4x6 LOVE IS...Set:

Hello friends and welcome to our 3rd month of Gratitude Challenges! How are you doing? If you haven't joined us, make MARCH a month of gratitude to start! You can see all of our posts on the 52 Weeks of Gratitude by clicking HERE!
The 20% off your TOTAL PURCHASE OF PRODUCTS ends Monday at midnight! Head over to www.inspiredstamps.com:
Here are March's Focus Scripture (remember, you can do whatever you like for our challenge; you are not required to use our stamps or these verses to participate!):
March 3: James 1:2
March 10: Psalm 103:1
March 17: Romans 8:28
March 24: 1 Thess 5:18
March 31: Isaiah 30:15
Here is this week's verse:
This is a great verse, that continues on in James chapter 1. As a child of God you WILL have various trials in this life. It's guaranteed! But it's not the trials that separate us from the world, but rather how we understand them and respond to them. God is sovereign, meaning He is completely in control. Nothing can happen to you or me without His allowing it or purposing it. That's huge! That means whatever comes into our life as a trial, God will use to make us more like Christ. And we are to respond accordingly. Get our eyes off the trial, and onto the loving God who allowed that trial in your life at that very moment. How do you respond when a trial comes? It is to be with joy, why? We are to KNOW that the testing of our faith produces endurance! That is a good thing! Continue reading this verse on your own in your Bible to see what result endurance has. It's one to remember and memorize and submit yourself to obediently during a trial.
Belinda made us this beautiful card for today:
A great way to encourage someone during a trial is to remind them what God says. Beautiful!
I have decided to do 5x7 Canvas art this month to mix it up a bit! Remember you can do whatever YOU like, from making a list of what you are grateful for to a scrapbook layout, a card, a canvas, whatever! Try something new, if you dare!
Here is the canvas I made:
I drew her in a sketch with pencil, then painted, then glued paper, chalked yellow to highlight words, then added charcoal pencil to outline her (I love this look, but it you don't like the smoky look you could use a marker or more acrylic paint). I used Inspired Stamps: JAMES 1:2 and ART JOURNAL WORDS AND FACES (word JOY)
Here is a close up of her face:
I wanted her hands raised, her face peaceful and raised as she takes all the various trials that come at her, and responds with joy. Joy not because of the trial (trials are painful, uncomfortable, and sometimes even scary), but because she knows that through this trial, her trusted God and Heavenly Father is making her more like her Savior, Jesus Christ. He's always the source of our joy! She will remind me when I'm in a trial to respond like this...fully surrendered to what He is doing!
I am hanging her by this great hanger I found at a local scrapbook store about 3 years ago! It has a place for a word, so I stamped my verse and cut out the word 'various trials'. It's the problem. The solution hangs below it: JOY!
Here is this piece hanging on my wall:

Hello friends!
Easter is only a few weeks away, and what a perfect time to send the people you love a beautiful Easter Card! I have made a set of three that I'd like to share with you today! I used a Martha Stewart punch for the paper, glitter tape, Tombow markers, and Stickles in coordinating colors. All of the stamps are Inspired Stamps, including this flower from the FLOWER BUDS set you can find HERE.
Here are the Cards with the FLOWER BUDS and PERFECT SENTIMENTS sets used on the outside and their inside verse from the BY HIS WOUNDS SET you can find HERE:

I also stamped the flower using Momento London Fog (it's a light gray) randomly on the envelopes shown here:
