I am the April hostess for the Crafter's of Faith group here on SCS. I asked the ladies to create a card/project on JOY. It could include the word Joy or be something that brings them joy, etc. I decided to do a Bible Journaling page, using my BRAND NEW Project Bin Spencer's Set stamps and pictures of my son Brock, who is autistic. This is actually a little flip piece that opens like a backwards card. On the inside I wrote some words from this mama's heart and added a die cut of the word Joy.
You can find more photos/information on my blog...

What a really personal and meaningful piece of Bible journalling. Well, I guess they all should be - but this speaks to me since I have an autistic nephew and both children of one of DH's best friends are quite severely affected by it.

Absolutely perfect for the joy challenge and a great added insert to your bible, reflecting both your son and life with autism ♥ As you know, my niece is also on the spectrum and it's a challenge but rewarding as well, seeing the triumphs and accomplishments! Beautiful use of color and that smiling face is precious!
So glad Spencer's Set from The Project Bin stamps spoke to your heart! ♥

Your amazing Bible journal page of joy speaks to the hearts of mothers everywhere, Jeanette! The love that you and Brock have for each other is truly a blessed gift from God to be treasured.
I love this!!! What a wonderful Bible journaling piece! We give all our children to God but I know I brought up Seth even more to God in my moment to moment prayers and even now that he is doing so well, I still say prayers all day long for him! So sweet!!! Hugs!!!
