January "To Do"

This year, one of my resolution is to scrap a LO a day (so far...failed *LOL) anyway, I'm not  going to berate myself...instead I'm going to create a list of what projects, challenges, sketches I want to work on  then from there, hopefully I will be able to cross each one of them by the end of the month ;-)  This is  more realistic right? So to start of my list...

1. ScrappersatSG January Challenge 
2. Creative Scrappers Sketch #86
3. Made with Love Sketch #1
4. ScrapbookChallenges 
5. Ch{all}enge Masters
6. Scrap & Stamp

Ok, I should get back to work now before my boss sees me *lol*

Change My Heart Oh God

For my last challenge at Scrapbook challenges I would like you to create a layout using the word "Change".  It can be your title, journal or even show changes in your photos.

A lot of things has been happening in my life right now and I find myself singing the song "Change My Heart Oh God".  I'm so thankful that He always provides me with wisdom and understanding on why things happen.  It may not always be the what I want to happen but His plans & timing are always way better than mine.  So no complains here ;-)

I am also looking forward to a lot of changes in 2010 and I know everything will be for the best...Some I may not understand right a way but i just trust Jesus that it's for my own good. ( because he has promised only good things for me! Jeremiah 29:11)

and here's my sample.

PP: Heidi Grace
