"Goodness" me! #3 in the Fruit of the Spirit Overlays

"Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever." Psalms 23:6 Now you tell me who wouldn't want goodness and mercy to follow them, right? I know I do. And talk about goodness! Here I am up in the beautiful hill country of Texas and if that's not goodness I don't know what is. I live in south Texas and that is FLAT land. My husband farms, so I know we need that flat land, but not much on the beauty side. But, here at our other house............well surrounded by hills, hummingbirds, the cool Frio River, ah...peace and beauty! Ok so I want to share some goodness with you today! Here is the 3rd in the series. I am making another series I will most likely interject in between, its outdoors! Maybe tomorrow? Have a "good" day. Blessings and Grace to all...............

New Word Art and more Fruit and a Blessing too!


Well I had a wonderful anniversary. And now, back to the real world. When I got home and hubby went to bed, I came and checked my email. I found this beautiful blessing layout that a lady, Sue Peart, had sent me from Australia. I was AMAZED! Isn't is wonderful? I am so glad she shared it with me. I emailed her and asked if I could put it on y blog and she graciously agreed. I hope it inspires you as much as it did me. I love the simplicity of the white backgrounds, but this is equally nice. I am going to give you guys another "piece of fruit" and the next word art I have ready to go. I saw this on a sign and loved it! I am going out of town for a few days to our house in the Texas hill country....ahhhhh I can feel the Frio River now...but I will post something when I go to the little library a few miles up the road. I may be slower in responding to emails, so be patient with me. Thanks again Sue for sharing your beautiful layout! Have a great weekend and enjoy your family and friends. His, Teri

.PNG users READ THIS !

I had some requests for these in the .png format along with the .psd format. I want to make sure that there is enough interest in the .png format to continue to make them available. If I just did the .psd I could make them over twice as fast and get more out. I will make them in hte .png for a few more times unless I get ample comments letting me know several of you need the .png or else it just isnt worth it for me. So, heres the deal...if you want them in .png then I need to here from you. I hope you understand my position, I do this for fun, and love to share, and want to share as many as I can. I have had so many requests and want to do them as soon as I can. Take care, and have a great weekend. Enjoy life each day. His, Teri

Happy Anniversary to me! Well, and to my husband too! 32 years! God has seen us through very tough times... and I am here to tell you HE IS FAITHFUL! Tom and I have been faithful to each other, standing beside each other during cancer, death, horrible attacks on our faith. So many people who pass through our lives just see the happy family. But without going into detail, we have been touched by almost every type of arrrow that Satan can hurl.........except...we are still standing! If you are reading this today and thinking, well she hasn't had that happen, well you ever know. I just want to encourage others to trust in the Lord to get you through those hard times. I am having so much fun with these overlays. But tommorow, it will be a word art. So for you word art ladies, one is hot off the press! I have compleated the Fruits of the Spirit series, so will most likely do outdoor theme next, since we are in the midst of summer and camping season. I will make them as long as there is traffic on my downloads. When the traffic slows down, I will know its time to move on. Thats fair right? I also have a small question for you smart ladies. How do you organize your scrapbook kits? I use PSE6 and am beginning to put them into my organizer, tagging them with diffferent titles and such. But I have about come to the conclusion that I am going to just add them, and tag the previews, and themes and designers, and as I used them, then go to more detail. I will never get them done if I follow Patty Debowski's step by step program and tag every single paper, element and all. Ok, sorry I got so long winded. Here are the next two overlays.

Ok Ladies...............I get it... you want my fonts!

I am truly overwhelmed! I am amazed at how many downloads there have been for these overlays. I am so happy to create something that seems to be really in demand. I am making them as fast as I can.... I still have some word art to share...I cant wait for one, but it is not next in line.....maybe on a special day like the birth of my 1st granddaughter, which will be on the 25 if all goes as planned? Hint Hint.....So back to the fonts. For the bold lettering under the blackframe, i use Franklin Gothic Heavy and for the little script hand writing font, i use Digs My Heart. If you dont have it I think i got it from DaFont. I do have to switch if I need a colon to engravers. You have to play with the sizes according to the word. I hope this answers your questions. Also, as I said before, Pam at Digitreats has done some she is selling so I will try not to duplicate, except for the LOVE, becasuse how can we have the fruits of the Spirit without love. I did let her know that would be the exception. If you are interested in seeing which words she has done, go to her blog and click on purchase where she is talking about her frames, and it will give you a list of the ones she has done. That way, you will know that I will not be doing those names. I am thanking God right now for all his blessings that are flowing my way. The greatest of which is my wonderful husband, whom we will be celebrating our 32 anniversary tommorow! He is a wonderful husband and a great father. A true christian witness in a world that needs to see Christ in our daily lives.

Overlay # 3 and I'll tell you what's next!

Here is the "Grad" overlay I did. I have so many ideas on which way to go with these. I did talk to Pam over at Digitreats and she is offering 66 of these types of frames for sell in a Kit. I told he I did not want to step on her toes, so I will try not to offer ones she is selling. She also has a great tutorial on how to make you own if you want to check it out @ digitreats.typepad.com . But this is what I have decided to do next with these cute frames............are you ready? The fruits of the Spirit! Isn't that a great idea? I actually didn't come up with it on my own. My friend over at Digiscrapdepot, Vicky did! She is so smart! A big thank you to her for her encouragement to me! She is also my late night chat buddie! I will work on those today, get as many made as I can and get them out to yall as soon as I can....keep giving me ideas, I may pick another theme after I finish the fruits of the Spirit, unless people get tired of them...I hope not, I think they make a great quick layout and one that would be appreciated as a gift to freinds and family. I have bought 8 x 8 frames at our local dollar tree or dollar store, maybe both. They are actually perfect for 8 x 8 layouts. I think I had to adjust the frame to 7.75x7.75 to get them to fit perfectly. The frames are mostly white or black, brown. Go see if you can find some.....Great price at only a buck a piece!

I am sorry for those who needed the overlays in .png I will make sure I add them to the up and comming ones I make. Sorry for those who already downloaded. The links are fixed, adding the .png files to them. Enjoy!

Blessed Overlay




Here is #2... A big thank you to Lynn's for her suggestion. I just had to try one more! Keep those suggestions comming. I like to leave the photo showing thru on the wording most of the time, but as you can tell on this preview, i cropped it photo so that the word BLESSED would be in black. I have left the journaling where it can be edited if you dont like the wording. I really think this one turned out cute!

They say that is the first thing to do if you want help, right? LOL Really, I have several in mind to create now, so if you like these, check back...........I would love for you to email me with some title names and I will try do do as many as I can. Right off the bat, I think of Friends, Family, Grandma, Grampa, Brothers, Sisters, etc. I can think of Camping, Hunting, Fishing...Vote and the one with the most votes will be next! If I make them, you will come, right? Now go grab some on your favorite vacation photo's and start scrappin! I can see these done so many ways. Email me your layouts and I will post them on my blog.
