: Growing in Grace

Life sometimes throws challenges our way and things don’t always grow according to the plans we carefully made. But along the way, we learn, adapt and grow in different directions which makes each of us unique.

I remembered these fruit washi tapes in my stash and thought they were perfect for what I wanted to journal about today: productivity, growth and learning to appreciate progress even when it looks different from what we imagined.

Just like a garden, not everything grows at the same pace or bears the same fruit. Some seasons are abundant, while others are meant for simply taking root.

Either way, we are still growing. 🌱🍓

Psalm 18:25
To the faithful you show yourself faithful, to the blameless you show yourself blameless.

This verse comes from the chapter The LORD Is My Rock and My Fortress, and it reminds me that during times when I seek affirmation or support, I can always return to how I choose to live each day.

When I remain faithful, act with integrity and trust in God, I can find comfort in knowing that He sees what is in my heart. I may not always know what lies ahead, but I can choose to move forward with faith rather than worry.

This is a note I put in my mini sketchbook cover to remind me to live with faith and integrity and trust God with the rest. I used the Bee Happy eyelet puncher to add charms to the note so it looks pretty, too.

: A Little Care 🩷

What is something about yourself that you’ve been calling “broken” that might simply need a little care?

I opened my happy mail from A Beautiful Mess Studio today. I usually find myself admiring how beautifully she puts everything in her kits together, but today felt a little different. This question stayed with me. It hit me and I knew I wanted to make a journal page around it.

There are a few things I’ve been healing from. Things that, at one point, I thought could never be repaired. And while some scars may never completely disappear, I’m learning that healing doesn’t always mean returning to who we were before. Sometimes, it means learning to live gently with what happened, giving ourselves the care we needed and recognizing the strength we gained along the way.

The pain may be part of my story, but so is the person I’ve become because I chose to keep going. ✨

: Cupcake Cottage 🧁🏡✨

I thought, why not turn a cupcake into a whimsical cottage? I had so much fun filling this tiny world with flowers, mushrooms, a little garden and all sorts of playful details.

I simply let my imagination wander and followed whatever happy little ideas came to mind. I enjoyed making this so much that I think I want to turn it into a series.

What should I transform into a whimsical cottage next? Can you give me some ideas?
