Grace | Collaboration with Lynne-Marie 

Lynne-Marie and I combined our creativity to bring you this gorgeous collab!  Grace was created with the third LOVE YOURSELF Challenge in mind though it can be used to scrap any story. 

LOVE YOURSELF Challenge #3:   Fill a page with journaling that pours out your feelings towards yourself or someone else (good or bad) and then scrap over the journaling with paints, embellishments, photos or anything else until you can barely see the journaling and it is replaced with something of beauty.

To bestow grace on someone is to offer them unmerited love and forgiveness.  Some of us find it easy to show grace to others, but not to ourselves. As the soul becomes inflamed with toxic guilt and condemnation, it may become more critical, complaining, or contentious.  Are there any areas of you life that you need to cover with grace?  Do you need to let go of some stuff?  Do you need to forgive yourself or someone else for past hurts or disappointments?  The challenge outlined above may be a good outlet to release some of your emotions and begin the healing process. 

This kit includes:
- 19 papers
- 12 rub-on printed transfers
- (4) 3x4 journal cards
- (2) 4x4 filler cards
- (1) 4x6 filler card
- 8 painted stamps
- 4 paper flowers
- 1 metal button
- 1 piece of tape
- 1 file labels
- 1 stitched grid
- 2 photo corners
- 1 stitched paper trim
- 1 printed border
- 1 paper clip
- 1 painty mat
- 1 butterfly
- 1 butterfly tag
- 2 wordart tags
- 2 quotes on paper strips
- 14 word strips
- 9 phrase stips
- 5 quote stamps
- 1 extra large quote on artsy paper
- printable PDF file of journal cards and tags
 

Be sure to grab the coordinating FREE add-on!
