And I just showed up for my own life
And I'm standing here taking it in and it sure looks bright
~ Just Showed Up For My Own Life, Sara Groves
My name is Kristy.
I am a daughter, sister, aunt, friend, dog owner, home owner, decorator, crafter, cook, hostess, organizer, and traveler. I have been a dog foster parent, jewelry maker, nursery director, singer, small group leader, and child advocate. I've lived in three different states (one of them twice) and two different countries in my adult life.
But mostly, I'm just a child of God, trying to live day by day in this life adventure.
But now, this is what the LORD says —
he who created you, O Jacob,
he who formed you, O Israel:
"Fear not, for I have redeemed you;
I have summoned you by name;
you are mine."
- Isaiah 43:1
Your first dawn blinded you, left you cursing the day.
Entrance is crucial and it's not without pain.
There's no path to follow, once you're here.
You'll climb up the slide and then you'll slide down the stairs.
It's foreign on this side, but it feels like I'm home again.
There's no place to hide but I don't think I'm scared.
- Nickel Creek, This Side
why this song?
You don't know me from Adam, but I LOVE the 2nd invite. you do beautiful work.
ReplyDeleteKristy! I would go with the first or the last. I love the brown and blue and the photo of Kelli is beautiful! Love you chica, Praying for your time in Gabon!
ReplyDeleteI like the first one. It looks grown up. The second seems like a HS graduation announcement. I like having pictures ont he announcements so that everyone has a picture of her to put up. Great job.
ReplyDeleteThe first one, or the last two.
ReplyDeleteI like the first one, but with a space with the kelli and lisa. :)
ReplyDeleteI like the one with the tree. But i like anything with trees on it! What program did you use to design these?
ReplyDeleteHi, Kate - Normally I wouldn't reply in the comments, but I don't have a way to contact you, so hopefully you'll see this.
ReplyDeleteI used Microsoft Publisher to create each of them, mostly because that's the tool I'm most familiar with. The graphics for the last two images came up a free digital scrapbooking kit.
