Free Bible Verse Printable

For several months I have been wanting to make some little cards with Bible verses on them to carry in my purse. When I am sitting in an office waiting or have some free time I figured I can pull these out and memorize scripture rather than play on my phone or sit idly. Last week, I finally got around to making a set of 12 little cards. I picked more well known verses for this set so you will recognize any of the verses. I hear these all quite often, but I have to be honest and admit I did not know exactly where to find them in the Bible and that is my goal in making these. I made mine pink and green so that they stand out in my purse and well, that is my favorite color combination :) I plan to send these are treats in the mail to close friends with a ribbon around them and they would also make a cute favor at a Bible study I think. These are by no means a perfectly made printable, but I still wanted to share them with you all in the event that you might want to use them too. Enjoy!

Showering a Mother-to-be!

This has hands down been one of the very BEST weekend ever! It has been packed full of SO much fun and even some once in a lifetime experiences. I feel so very blessed! I will update on all my fun throughout the week, but wanted to share one of the big perks of the weekend with you all tonight.

Today, four friends and I hosted a shower at Andrea's for our good friend Jessica. We, as well as all the guests, all met one another another through Junior League two years ago and have become great friends. Jessica is having a baby girl in a month so we decided to pull out all the pink and make things extra girly!

I was in charge of flowers, favors, games and decor. Andrea's home is beautiful so little was needed so I just made a few small printables and then floral arrangements. I found some wonderful printables at Lay Baby Lay (they have some darling, framable printables for all you mommies) and made the rest myself. I had originally planned to make an "It's a Girl" sign, however, that just seems too long so I went with "BABY" instead. I was a bit worried this might look dumb, but I think it turned out very cute! We made Jessica take this home as we all thought it would be fun to put on their hospital door next month. Here is our buffet all set up and ready for the guests. Since the shower was from 2pm to 4pm we did not do heavy, heavy food as many people likely would eat before. Cassie made mini fruit kabobs and brought cheese, chicken salad and croissants. Andrea had mini quiches, candied nuts and a vegetable platter with the BEST dip from Central Market (if you are familiar with their dips it was the Love dip which is a favorite of mine). For dessert, another hostess brought petit fours from Tart (they are the BEST in Dallas in my opinion). It was the perfect amount of food for our size crowd and we all enjoyed everything! I made Oreo balls for the favors and then created my own tags which said "Sugar and spice, baby girls are so nice!" I hope they were good as I never tasted one :)

All in all we had a WONDERFUL afternoon celebrating Jessica and Baby C! We cannot wait to meet her in just a few more weeks!

Free Quote Printables

I have had the same set of 8x10 gold frames for about eight or nines years now. I bought them off eBay when I was still in high school or early years of college and had some fun Vogue prints in them for years. When I moved I had planned to do a "picture wall" with all gold frames. However, that never materialized as each frame found a happy home around the abode. I had tired of the Vogue prints so I decided I would try printing out a few quotes for them. I had already had an Audrey Hepburn "I Love Pink" quote, but decided to a few more so I could have a grouping (please excuse the not-so-straight iPhone photo):

I used a Julia Child and a Coco Chanel quote I love and simply formatted them in Word in fun fonts and voila! I had instant "art" to be hung in my bathroom.

While these were nothing special to create (remember I am often challenged when it comes to electronics?), but I thought I would share them with you in case you might have a spot for them at home or in your office too. They are fun quotes, by fabulous women and they always make me smile. I have included both quotes below as PDFs for you to download or print if you so wish. I hope this works as I have never tried it before, but Scribd is often very reliable. Please let me know if their are any kinks (you should be able to click the links if your browser will not pull up the Scribd items) that need to be worked out and have a wonderful weekend!

Coco Chanel

*NOTE: The word "happiness" is not showing up here on the blog for some reason.... It will, however, print correctly. I tested it and it should be good to go!
