Terrific Tuesday #9-Bonus Tuesday In The Month Of June

Welcome to Terrific Tuesday #9
With an extra Tuesday in June, I thought I would share something a little different.
Whenever I can, I like to spend time outside, going for walks, being near water and nature.
This past weekend, I was at my brother's cabin and enjoyed some time sitting on the dock, listening to the waves come in. While I was sitting there, I had some visitors join me and I was able to capture the moment in the photo below:


Today's Scripture Reading:
"Know this well, then. Take it to heart right now: God is in Heaven above; God is on Earth below. He's the only God there is."  Deuteronomy 4:39

May you have a Terrific Tuesday and a blessed week.

Terrific Tuesday #8-Product Of The Month

Welcome to Terrific Tuesday #8.
Once a month I would like to share a favorite product I use to create my handmade cards.
A paper trimmer is an important part of my process. I especially like the one that Stampin Up carries.
It is portable, durable and has a cutting blade and a scoring blade as well. I use this paper trimmer every time I create a handmade card.

In my Joyful Heart Gift Shop I offer a variety of handmade cards and gifts for purchase.

Today's Scripture:
"So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ." Romans 10:17

May you have a Terrific Tuesday and a blessed week.

Terrific Tuesday #6 What To Write In A Congratulations Card /Graduation Card


Hello, and welcome to Terrific Tuesday #6.
The month of June is a time to celebrate graduations and achievements.

My heart does go out to the class of 2020, given the current pandemic, they are unable to have a traditional commencement in a high school gymnasium or theater. They will march in a virtual procession. 
 Today, I would like to share some ideas on what to write in a card for graduation, as well as a card of congratulations:
  • So very proud of you.
  • You did it!
  • Here's to an exciting future full of new adventures.
  • Congratulations on such an amazing accomplishment.



Bible verses are also nice to include. They help the graduate know that God is with them:
  • "Commit your works to the Lord, and your plans will be established."  Proverbs 16:3
  • "Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men, knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you serve." Colossians 3:23-24
  • "May He give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed." Psalm 20:4
  • "But seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you." Matthew 6:33
In my Joyful Heart Gift Shop  I offer a variety of cards and gifts for purchase.


Today's Scripture Reading:
"Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, nor let it be fearful." John 14:7

May you have a Terrific Tuesday and a blessed week.
