Psalm 27

One of my favorite digital scrapbooking blogs that brings me much inspiration is the Creative Inspiration Blog. A few amazing scrapbookers from Designer Digitals have put together the blog to inspire the digital scrapbooking community. I'm always amazed at the layouts I see on there! Tonight I felt tired and I thought I would head to bed, but first I thought I would check my blog roll to see who has recently posted, and I saw that they had posted something. And so I went, I saw, I scrapped! I even bought this paper set from Designer Digitals because I just fell in love with it right away. I think it's been "love at first site" for me with some digital stuff lately. It's kinda funny! Or maybe I'm just more impulsive these days? No matter, I loved this paper set and just HAD to have it. Here's what I created:

I had read this Psalm today. It's my favorite Psalm. After I read it I thought that someday I should do a page about it. I really liked this picture Quent took of me on a swing, but I wanted a purpose for scrapping it. And I found the purpose tonight!
I used all sort of goodies on this page. If you have any questions about what was used, I would be very happy to share links. I'm too tired now to actually all of them right now.
The LORD is my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the strength of my life;
Of whom shall I be afraid?
When the wicked came against me
To eat up my flesh,
My enemies and foes,
They stumbled and fell.
Though an army may encamp against me,
My heart shall not fear;
Though war may rise against me,
In this I will be confident.
One thing I have desired of the LORD,
That will I seek:
That I may dwell in the house of the LORD
All the days of my life,
To behold the beauty of the LORD,
And to inquire in His temple.
For in the time of trouble
He shall hide me in His pavilion;
In the secret place of His tabernacle
He shall hide me;
He shall set me high upon a rock.
And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me;
Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle;
I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the LORD.
Hear, O LORD, when I cry with my voice!
Have mercy also upon me, and answer me.
When You said, “Seek My face,”
My heart said to You, “Your face, LORD, I will seek.”
Do not hide Your face from me;
Do not turn Your servant away in anger;
You have been my help;
Do not leave me nor forsake me,
O God of my salvation.
When my father and my mother forsake me,
Then the LORD will take care of me.
Teach me Your way, O LORD,
And lead me in a smooth path, because of my enemies.
Do not deliver me to the will of my adversaries;
For false witnesses have risen against me,
And such as breathe out violence.
I would have lost heart, unless I had believed
That I would see the goodness of the LORD
In the land of the living.
Wait on the LORD;
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
Wait, I say, on the LORD!

Beautiful and sincere layout! I love your projects and it is making me want to go to digital... I have a quick question and if you have time to answer, that would be great. I love your blog heading and wondering what size it is and how you got it to fit in the blogger lines. I try to create one in Illustrator or Photoshop and can't get the background to be opaque nor am I able to get the size "just right"! Thanks for any advice.
