Breast Cancer Awareness

Hi all - At KJOI Studios, we have gotten together and made this gorgeous charity kit to benefit the Komen foundation to research cures for Breast Cancer. 


This is dear to my heart since I lost my Grandmother and Mother-In-Law to cancer.  They both had breast cancer, but it eventually went through out their bodies....  Please help raise awareness by purchasing this wonderful kit to help support Breast Cancer Research!!!  I know I will purchase it - even though I have it all - I want to be able to support the cause!!!


All proceeds of this kit go to the Susan G. Komen Fund...the shop paypal fees are included too, so every cent goes to them! Here is the description in the shop for you to see what we put together for you:

This kit was put together by 13 designers who want to get out the word on Breast Cancer Awareness. ALL proceeds from the sale of this kit will go to the Susan G. Komen Fund to aid in this cause! For more information, or to donate to this cause directly visit: http://ww5.komen.org/. This kit is for all the mothers, daughters, sisters, aunts, cousins, friends, grandmothers, and many other loved ones who have ever suffered from this illness and their families.

It is so important to catch this early...and that is the message we want to get out! Check yourselves, be checked by your doctor, and be aware for those that care so deeply about you! To those that haven't survived this...we will remember you forever!! And to those that have survived this...we are amazed by the strength and courage you inspire in those that are around you...THANK YOU!

This kit includes 71 papers, 113 elements, and 2 alphas. All items are 300ppi resolution, and are jpg/png files. The papers are all 12x12 in size.

Nothing IS Impossible with God

Hi all,

This morning in my quiet time - I have been studying the names of God, this mornings was about Jehovah Jirah - My God will supply.  I was wondering how God was going to show Himself today.  Wow I could not have imagined what would happen as the morning progressed.

So I come downstairs and start my morning - checking my computer, reading emails etc and getting ready to start school.  Well around 10 am, I get this phone call from my best friend - she had some interesting news to tell me.  Last night, we were talking about my daughter's best friend - we had not seen or heard from her and there might be something going on that we don't understand - none of us know - but it sounds weird.  You see, my daughter's 19y friend has lung cancer.  Everyone is astounded at how SHE could have cancer - there is no exposure to anything that should have caused it....

So my friend's call was about this young lady.  Over the weekend, she was having problems breathing etc, so she went to the hospital - to find out that the cancer was now stage 4 - she now had large masses of cancer in both lungs as well as the outside.  The cancer had been shrinking - responding well to chemo.  But NOW all of a sudden - they were only giving her 2-4 months to live if she only did the chemo.  So they were preparing to take her to Texas to the best Chemo treatment center.

This morning she went to go get a PET scan (for the trip) and the cancer was virtually gone.  There is only a tiny bit left that should be cleared up within 2 weeks with Chemo.  GOD healed her body - it was there yesterday - it is gone today.  Needless to say - we all have had a hard time concentrating today - GOD IS SO AWESOME!!!

Today, as little things / itty bitty trials would come up, I would think - "oh this is difficult".... then I would remember how GOD worked in such a wondrous way this morning.  ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE WITH GOD.  No matter what happens in my life - I am so THANKFUL that GOD KNOWS and CARES!!!  I am thankful that nothing is bigger than HIM!!!

Construction Happening Here....

HI all,

I just thought I would let you know - you will be seeing some major changes taking place on this blog....

I will see you soon - with some exciting news.....

There Is Love

HI all,

Today I want to share with you a LO I made today!


kit - Sunshine Artz' My Little World

With the economy being the way it is, I know there is a lot of people out there whose immediate future maybe shaky.... People losing jobs, money not going as far as it used to, cost of gas, food etc..... Sometimes these things can seem so overwhelming. There is only one place we can go for peace of mind - to God. He is the one who is in control! He knows our needs. He can give us the peace that we need to face the Giants that are before us.

I did a Theme Thursday Challenge over at Hummie's World today. The theme was "Blah" and I wondered how I would be able to scrap something blah. I am generally a cheerful person - resting in the Peace that only God can give. But today, I was struggling. In fact, I was in a pretty "blah" mood. But I did not want to scrap about that.... when I started to look at the kits I had, I knew that I had nothing that was blah either.... So as I was thinking about what I could do, I was listening to my Christ Tomlin CD "Hello Love"...... as I was listening I thought about how the blahs were going away - as I listened to how God is with us in everything we do. When I heard the song above, I knew it was the one I needed to do the challenge about....

I thank GOD that HE IS in CONTROL!!! That HE will take care of us - that HE LOVES us so much that HE sent HIS only Son Jesus to die on the cross for our sins, and that He rose again on the 3rd day and lives in Heaven! I thank GOD that Jesus' death completely paid the price for our sin - which was death. Have you trusted in Jesus - that He died for YOUR sins? Please do so today.... we don't know what tomorrow will bring. This might be your last chance to choose HIM....

I Can Do All Things

WOW!!!  I can't believe all that has happened in the past 2 weeks...  I had a tooth pulled - took a week to recover completely; had to quickly replace our large upright freezer; had a really bad migraine that lasted off and on for a week.... and other minor things along with these.... BUT - these things did not get me down - at least not for long - because I was trusting in God (And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.  Romans 8:28) and I have seen HIS hand in everything that has been happening - HE sure has taken me through all of these things victoriously.  I praise God from whom all BLESSINGS flow!!!

How do you react when tough things come your way? (I can do ALL things through Christ who gives me strength Philippians 4:13)

Here are some things that can help you to stand tall when trials come your way....

Remember that God has no limits - there is nothing He can not do!  He is in control of everything.

Remember that God's tolerance HAS its limits - there will be a time when God will say "enough".  Are you ready to meet God face to face?  Have your trusted Him as your Savior?  DO you believe that Jesus died and rose again to forgive you of your sins?  Judgement day IS coming.

Remember that these problems in your life have a purpose.  God will work through them for good - if you are a believer.  Who are they affecting?  How are they affecting you?  What are you doing in them?  The purpose is God's wisdom.  ( Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, ³for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. ⁴And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing. James 1:2-4)

Remember that God is allowing these things to happen in HIS WISDOM which HE could easily remove by HIS POWER.  God is working behind the scenes, remember Job???  We might not fully understand the why - it might be too heavy of  a burden. 

I praise GOD that HE loves us enough to work on us!  Think of the refining fire - the refiner heats up the metal to remove all of the impurities.  God is doing that in our lives.... allows us to go through trials to remove all of the impurities in our lives. 

I pray that you can say with me... "I CAN do ALL things through Christ who give ME STRENGTH!!!"
