I have to tell you a little story about this next project before it will make sense, so beware, this may end up being a longer post than usual!
Last spring I was involved in a ladies Bible study at the home of a good friend. One of the things she recommended was to memorize a verse each week by putting it on a sticky note and putting it somewhere where you would see it often. I got the idea to design a post-it every week for the remainder of the study. I designed the verses with my Creative Suite software and saved them as PNG files so that I could add them as digital stamps to my MDS software. Since I created the files without artwork, I don't need to worry about copyright infringement. I checked with SU and they said that I can give away the files as long as I don't charge for them. You will occassionaly see MDS artwork in some of my samples, but the art was added after the fact and aren't included with the PNG files. Now here is the tricky part. I am not exactly sure how to add the .png files to my post in a way that can easily be downloaded, so I am gonna try to attach it at the end of the post and we will see what happens. If it doesn't work, please feel free to contact me and I will send you an email of the file. I am also open to suggestions for a better way to do this. To use the Bible verses with MDS, I went into my MDS software/components/stamps and created a folder called "Bible Verses" and placed the files there. They should then just show up just like any digital stamps you have in your MDS software. Of course, you can use the files with any software that allows you to import .png files.
Here is the first verse that I designed. I can't believe that I have never gotten around to sharing this scrapbook page of my husband and son. I made this page in MDS several months ago but I forgot to post it. This photo was taken about five years ago just before my husband deployed for Iraq. I think it is my all-time favorite of all photos of my guys. The verse is Nehemiah 8:10. As I look back on that difficult period of our lives I know that it was only through our faith in Christ that were able to make it.
Here is the free download.
