HOPE

“Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that you will abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”  Romans 15:13

“For whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction, so that through perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures, we might have hope.”
Romans 15:4

“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for calamity, to give you a future and a hope.”  Jeremiah 29:11

“… if we hope for what we do not see, with perseverance we wait eagerly for it.”  Romans 8:25

My Response to “Art From God’s Word” Prompt

| Sandra Pavloff Conner

I’ve shared on here about creating a new Facebook group called “Art From God’s Word.” Twice a month, we have a scripture prompt, and each member then creates a work of art inspired by that scripture. We can use any medium we choose, and this time around I chose watercolor and ink.

The prompt was 1 Peter 4:8: “Above all keep fervent in your love for one another because love covers a multitude of sins.”

‘Dare To Be Different’ Christmas Card Series

| Sandra Pavloff Conner

My brand new Christmas card series “DARE TO BE DIFFERENT CHRISTMAS’ debuted this week at a holiday craft fair near my hometown. I’ve created scores of Christmas themed cards in the past, but last year, for some reason, I didn’t do anything new. However, this year, I just couldn’t resist something a little “out-of-the-ordinary.” I created three new designs featuring my watercolor and acrylic paintings. So I thought I’d share pictures of the fronts, along with the inside sentiments.

Also, I’m thinking about getting set up to sell my greeting cards online after the first of the year. I’d appreciate hearing from any of you out there who have online marketing experience. Do you have any advice — pro or con — about the different kinds of marketing venues such as E-Bay, Etsy, Personal E-Commerce Sites, etc.?

Hope you enjoy these three new designs. They were really fun to make.

Merry Christmas!

Abstract Greetings

| Sandra Pavloff Conner

These are two of my newest greeting cards — somewhat abstract in nature. Actually, they don’t look as good on here as they do in “real life,” but I like to post them anyway, because sharing what I’m creating helps keep me in the creative flow even when other things press me for time and energy. I got a kick out of creating both of them, so I hope you get an equal kick out of seeing them.
