Love the cards; I’m not a regular follower so the conversation was a surprise to me. I believe in prayers. As for prayers and fasting, I feel the fasting needed today is fasting from social media, news, phone, television internet. Relationships struggle without communication. A while back, my husband and I needed to agree, phones and everything connected to them, are put away during our meals together. Our meals are us. We are stronger today, at 33 years together, than yesterday. Feeling blessed to understand in today’s world, what one needs to ‘fast’ from.

[@traceybarrientes721]

Anna, thank you for your obedience and for sharing your gift of card making and using this platform as a ministry to strangers all over the world. You were impacting lives much more than you’ll know.

[@SweetT601]

Yes

[@bettyswinford5886]

Thank you for this beautiful card.Love your ideas and cards. Please keep making me happy.

[@saragregg4950]

Thanks for your powerful words of hope and faith.We love you xx

[@sherrilbjalexander2856]

Love these cards! There are no coincidences. Been married to my first and only love for over 50 years now. Prayer absolutely works. I made a promise and I’m keeping it. We were very young and knew everything, except for what we didn’t know! 🤣

[@anaraposo522]

Hi Anna, I absolutely love this technique thank you.

[@timshuman5464]

My husband and I have been married for over50years. Five years into our journey, we attended a Marriage Encounter weekend where we learned communication and decision making skills many of which we still use. Prayer is even a stronger part now. I like the card making border suggestions.

[@suzieq4007]

Keep talking the talk, girl. So good! During these insane times, self-care is critical. Good family / friends to talk to. Prayer also. Crafting is my mental therapy. Interesting about fasting, never done that. ty Anna.

[@donnamccarty953]

Honest communication, prayer, and fasting works. Married 42 years this year. Still going Strong. Love you, Anna. Your videos, too!

[@helenthornton5074]

Love these cards. Thank you

[@ruthspencer6081]

Thank you Anna!

[@mommabeth9052]

Thank you for sharing. My husband and I have gone on a marriage retreat through our church. We didn’t even feel like we needed any particular help, but we learned and grew so much

[@ru4repeattoo]

10:43 -- "I encourage you try praying and fasting!" Anna, I absolutely agree. The combined power of prayer and fasting is immeasurable. There is no such thing as coincidences, they are tender mercies from our Heavenly Father. We can definitely change how we conduct ourselves regardless of how other's choices effect us.

[@josannejames6687]

You are truly a blessing. Thank you for your card ideas on boarders and for sharing the wonderful resources on having better communication in our marriages.

[@papercatcards]

Love these cards, Anna! I might try this with a star die for a graduation card I need ASAP. So great that you mentioned John Gottman. The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work is a great resource for keeping the friendship in your relationship/marriage and making sure that clear communication is happening. Relationships take work! There's nothing harder than getting two lives to go in the same direction with mutual trust, respect, and commitment. But it's worth it. Wishing the best to all who are trying to make a marriage or long-term relationship work.

[@donnalelievre1122]

Marriage Encounter was good early on but after 47 years another little prod wouldn’t go amiss - so now I make doubly sure to include my partner in my daily prayers- It helps me to walk a bit in their shoes and see the world and my issues from their POV. Power of prayer really does go a long way. Thank you for yours (for Donna)

[@alicetesnow9117]

Loved this video and you sharing your heart at the end.

[@handmakewithlove]

Thank you so much!

[@deborahroberts5772]

You are so true, our families are in such jeopardy! The Lord is the only hope we have. God has laid our families on my heart to pray and as you said fasting, for them! Thankful to hear others are on the same wave length.

[@karencook3808]

Thank you for your helpful and encouraging thoughts on marriage, especially prayer!

[@jllannoo]

Great cards. Fabulous message, I’ve been married 40 years this year. There have been difficult times along the way but well worth the effort. Bless you.

[@tracyevans8838]

Lovely cards Anna 😊❤

[@susanhammond9916]

Watching the replay from Theodore Alabama Love all of your cards. They are all beautiful. It's just to hard to choose just one.

[@caroll.b.4843]

Anna. Thanks for your card ideas ! I love the Magnolia on Mauve cardstock!

[@suklinkner9127]

Thanks for the all the encouraging information. So happy to see your bright and happy face. You are right on about taking your trials to prayer. Right now I am in a bible study called Pray Big and it is great. God bless and keep the videos coming.

[@Taitcreates639]

Very helpful edge tutorial

[@barbaraarmstrong4295]

Stunning cards! Interesting conversation. I agree that we need to nurture within our homes to be the best within our world. Prayer and communication are important pieces to understanding ourselves better

[@pennyanndouglas9426]

I've been looking for something "fancy" to use for wedding/anniversary cards-- this is perfect! SO BEAUTIFUL!

[@debbieholman906]

Great tips on cards. And great advice on marriage. Thank you

[@Lizaxoxo3]

So cute , love this idea!!! I love your speeches, God Bless you. Thank you, great video . Yes yes , prayer works and having a great relationship with our Lord and Savior.

[@Cardlyscrappin]

Married 35 years. It takes commitment to God, your vow, and each other.

[@loribondesen2131]

Thank you!

[@midgedinardo6993]

You are such a blessing, God is using you mightily! Thank you for being obedient to the Lord. Yes, marriages are under attack, and families too. We must pray for our children and spouse.

[@kerriegood1046]

Very spired video. Enjoyed you examples and color choices.

[@raylenetatum8185]

Can't wait to try making cards this way. How cool. And thank you for your ministry.

[@thereseramette6264]

Thank you for a new technique that you showed today! ❤👋from France and the weather is BEAUTIFUL!

[@julieblack5225]

Love these ideas! Thanks for sharing! ❤

[@mandyhall1674]

Pretty cards, thank you for the ideas x

[@catarinahameeteman3371]

What a fabulous idea thank you Anna for all you give ❤

[@annettestevens4558]

Oh Anna!! I am so glad you are talking about fasting! Jesus taught us to fast. Bible fasting takes us deeper into a spiritual relationship with our Lord. When I'm on a Bible fast and get hungry, I just start reading my Bible and I also pray. God's word is food for our spiritual soul and my hunger goes away. Also- it is important to drink plenty of water during a fast. God recognizes our sacrifices and when we humbly put "self" down and lift Him up, He can really move for us! ✝️🙏💕

[@findlayhunter4934]

Neat new technique. TYFS.

[@cindyn3383]

Love your chats. Thank you.

[@maryfry7258]

What great ideas, thanks for sharing. Gives our cards a whole new look!

[@beatrizphilpott]

Yes I loved your tips on new use for our dies on edges. But I really want to express how much fasting has changed my life too. I really didn’t understand it fasting dedicate these hours to our Lord. I’m in a women Bible Journaling Group. This past month March we did fasting every Tuesday during the month at church and those who couldn’t go did it at home. My life was enlightened during these weeks I wasn’t only fasting those Tuesdays but everyday during that week a few hours each week. It brings us so close to God it’s amazing and hard to express how close and how he has his ways of letting you know that he is beside with you. Thanks for sharing both your knowledge in stamping but also your peaceful spiritual counsel at the end of each of your live video. Just being thankful for you May you continue to counsel and advise us. Blessings always ❤🙏

[@handmakewithlove]

Thank you so much for sharing your experiences to help inspire others! Hugs and blessings to you 🥰

[@Rebecca-wf5mu]

OH MY, this is genius THANKS SO VERY MUCH!!!

[@amydavis3896]

Absolutely gorgeous!!!

[@sandyfowler1139]

Oh. Penny! There are as many reasons not to stay as there are reasons to stay! Do not judge others for how much they are able to withstand. 🤷🤔

[@tracylee4442]

Also, your local church may have seminars, counseling resources available.

[@lindamoore9729]

Very neat ideas I plan to try. After 51 years of marriage, of reading, praying, and overlooking nasty and dangerous behavior, I'm moving out. My sanity is at stake. Truly it is in the balances. My friends and children agree it's not safe for me any more. Sad but true. Not physical abuse, mental. I'm not leaving to start any new relationship, but for peace and sanity. Not for a divorce, but simply because I will never have peace here.

[@RoxanneR8375]

God bless you, Linda! I'm sure this was a difficult decision, but God is faithful, and His love is far deeper than we could ever imagine. I'm thankful you have supportive people around you. You will find peace. 🙏🌱❤️🌹 New life, new hope, new beginnings. ❤️❤️❤️

[@sandyfowler1139]

Peace to you Linda. 😕❤

[@handmakewithlove]

I’ve been there. Not saying I understand your particular situation, but your description of your situation is something I’ve been through. I’m praying for you 🙏

[@saragregg4950]

❤

[@tinaemery668]

I would appreciate your prayers. My marriage is in terrible shape.

[@handmakewithlove]

Sending them up right now ❤️

[@tracylee4442]

Hugs. Marriage is hard! If you have a local marriage conference, like a weekend to remember, that was a good one. And if you can’t, I like the books by stormy o Martian, like the power of a praying wife. She has a whole line of books and devotionals. Prayers!

[@pennyanndouglas9426]

Hopefully, your spouse doesn't catch you reading the book ("walking away") before you have a chance to put it into practice.

[@pennyanndouglas9426]

Only serial infidelity or abuse are reasons not to try every avenue available to save a marriage, in my humble opinion.
