John 3:16 Bible Verse Floral Light Bulb Rubber Stamp

I created the John 3:16 Bible Verse Floral Light Bulb Rubber Stamp because I know how hard it can be to find the perfect way to share your faith through crafts, cards, and gifts. I used to spend hours trying to handwrite verses or design something meaningful, only to end up frustrated or wishing I had a more consistent way to express the message on my heart. That’s why this stamp means so much to me—it takes the beauty of Scripture and makes it easy to add to any project.

The design combines a delicate floral light bulb, a symbol of growth and illumination, with the powerful words of John 3:16, a verse that captures the essence of God’s love. Every time I use it, I feel like I’m not just decorating a page—I’m planting a seed of encouragement and hope for whoever receives it.

Whether I’m making handmade cards, journaling, preparing Sunday school materials, or adding a special touch to gift tags, this stamp saves me time and helps me create something heartfelt and lasting. It’s also built to last, so every impression comes out crisp and clear.

For me, this isn’t just a craft tool—it’s a way to share my faith in a creative, beautiful, and memorable way. If you’ve ever wished you had an easier way to spread encouragement through your projects, this stamp was made with you in mind.

How the “Goose & Lily Pink Pattern” Helps You Unwind & Sleep Better After a Long Day

It's my day off again!

This means having time to design, to deep clean my apartment, and sleep sound and long. 

I don't known about you but after dragging myself through the workday grind, I always crave for a sound sleep. 

That’s what inspired me to design the Goose and Lily Pink Pattern for Girls – Cute Waterlily Repeat Design Throw Blanket — graceful geese gliding among waterlilies, all on a soft pink background. 

And maybe this sounds a bit dreamy, but I really believe this design can help you calm down, feel more relaxed at home, and even sleep better. Here’s why (with some research to back it up):

How the “Goose & Lily Pink Pattern” Helps You Unwind & Sleep Better After a Long Day
Grab this Throw Blanket here.


Why Nature & Patterns Calm the Mind

  1. Visual rest & soft fascination
    When your brain is overloaded from meetings, emails, traffic, etc., you’ve been using directed attention all day. Natural scenes help with attention restoration: the “attention restoration theory” says that looking at nature or natural-like patterns gives your minds a chance to recover. Simple, gentle shapes like waterlilies floating, soft curving lines, and silhouettes of geese produce what psychologists call soft fascination — they draw your attention gently without demanding it. 

  2. Lowering stress and cortisol
    Studies show that exposure to natural environments, even just visually (photos, paintings, nature scenes), can reduce stress markers (including cortisol) and lower blood pressure. That tension in your shoulders, racing mind, etc., can ease. 

  3. Nature imagery improves mood and wellbeing
    Being around—or even viewing—green, floral, or watery imagery has been tied to improved mood, reduced anxiety, and more positive feelings. One study found that virtual nature exposure over several weeks reduced anxious arousal and worry. So while geese or waterlilies might seem whimsical, they tap into deeper responses of calm. 

  4. Creating a peaceful home environment supports better sleep
    After a tiring day our bodies need cues that “okay, no more stress, time to wind down.” Environments that feel soothing help signal to your nervous system that it’s safe to relax. The softness of pink tones, the gentle repetition in a pattern (like our goose + waterlily repeat), and nature motifs help ease visual stimulation rather than increase it.


How the Goose & Lily Pattern Can Be Your Evening Ritual

Here are some practical ideas for making the pattern work for you:

  • Bedroom walls or pillows: Place the pattern on a throw pillow or bedspread — something you see just before you lie down. The gentle imagery sets a calm mood.

  • Lighting matters: Use soft warm lighting to complement the pastel pink background. Bright overhead lights + bold patterns can overstimulate; combine with lamps or dimmers.

  • Digital backgrounds: If you use the pattern on a screen (phone, computer), set it as wallpaper before sleep hours. It may be less intrusive than more active or busy visuals.

  • Pair with natural textures: Wood, linen, and nature sounds (birds maybe!) help reinforce the calmness the pattern brings.

Research Highlight

One study (for example) had participants viewing nature scenes before a stressful task; those who had views of nature recovered more quickly (lower stress response) than those without. PubMed Central

Another: a study on virtual nature exposure (images/videos) over time showed reductions in anxious arousal and chronic worry in students. Nature

So yes, even though a repeat pattern isn’t the same as physically walking in a garden, your brain responds even to representations of nature.

My Promise to You

I designed Goose & Lily Pink Pattern with care: gentle, friendly geese (nothing harsh or scary), waterlilies that float rather than crowd, and a pink background that feels soft, not glaring. I believe it can be a little sanctuary — something you see in your room and feel the day’s tension melt.

Sleep more peacefully. Feel calmer. Let this pattern whisper ease to your senses.

Personal Blog: Recognition

He’s in doubt! He said this morning that he can’t make it to first honor, “Kinakabahan ako,” he mumbled. I asked, “Why do you think so?” He said, “Because someone in class is more intelligent than I am.”

Numbers 6:24 The Lord Bless you Floral Book Rubber Stamp

 As Christians, many of us look for meaningful ways to share our faith and encouragement with others. Whether through handmade cards, journaling, or gifts, we want our creativity to reflect God’s love. But sometimes it’s hard to find tools that are both beautiful and centered on Scripture—something that speaks directly to the heart.

Maybe you’ve felt this: you want to add a faith-filled touch to your Bible journaling, Sunday school crafts, or even greeting cards, but most stamps and supplies out there don’t carry the verses you hold dear. You’re left wishing for designs that not only look elegant but also speak truth and blessing into the lives of others.

That's exactly what I am thinking when I design this "Numbers 6:24 The Lord Bless you Floral Book Rubber Stamp".

Personal Blog: The Sweetest but Saddest Walk

 Last day, September 8, 2025, I witness the sweetest but saddest walk of my son and my dog, Coda. For the first time, Coda walked side-by-side with him. We used to pull him because he's a homebody who refused to go outside. He's afraid of the outside world. So this scene amazed me like never before. Naglalakad din pala siya ng ganito? I should have known. 

Losing a Dog.

That day was different. Is that because he had full trust to his brother (my son)? Or would that be a way of submission to what lies ahead? I didn't capture the moment because I choose not to remember.

The Freedom of Location

 

We are not only seeking financial freedom, we also ache for location's freedom. 

At least, this is what I realized when I acquired a condominium last April 24, 2025. 

Last Wednesday, we finally transferred some of our things in our newly acquired condominium. 

We hired a jeepney to bring all our stuff. I can't believe we accumulated a lot of belongings that can occupy two houses even when I threw a lot of things already. 

The plan was to acquire a house near my work and my kid's school. Since January, I've been looking for a house or a Condo in Mandaluyong, Pasig, and Taguig. When I finally get one that suits my budget, I realized that I can't afford a Condominium near these places. 

I found one, though in Imus, Cavite, around four hours away from work and school. 

Since I acquired it already, kinailangan ko ng pangatawanan ito. I wrestled between buying a car or renting a small apartment nearby. I settled to the latter because buying a car and its maintenance is more expensive.

How Christian Artists and Moms Can Share the Gospel Through Their Art

“Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.”

Go into All the World Design in TeePublic.
For an artist who is also a working mom, this command might feel overwhelming—yet God often uses our everyday roles and creative gifts to fulfill His mission. 

Bound in obedience to 1 Timothy 2:12, I know the route of preaching is not for me but I clearly know that I need to share my relationship to the Lord and my life's testimony. 

As an artist, I cannot think of any way but use my gift of creativity in all the things that I design. You may check my new t-shirt design here. 

And this is possible.

Any gifts that you have, you can offer it back as a service to the Lord.

Here are faithful, practical ways you can obey Mark 16:15 through your art, right where you are:

Jim Elliott on Contentment: 7 Christian Ways to Overcome Longings

"Let not our longing slay the appetite of our living. Wherever you are, be all there! Live to the hilt every situation you believe to be the will of God." - Jim Elliott

All of us have different longings. Sometimes these longings are insatiable that they become our obsessions in life.

Cute Hand-Drawn Thanksgiving Doodle Design T-Shirt on a Rainy Day

Cute Hand-Drawn Thanksgiving Doodle Design T-Shirt A Thanksgiving Doodles on a rainy day. I supposed to give it up altogether but I keep pushing to have this design see the light. 

You can grab it here for a discount of 17% within the 24 hours. 

The rainy days give me respite from all the stress and worries I should be facing -- relocation, house works, and workload. 

We can't go out that's why we can't relocate also. 

The short rest made me breathe and give thanks as I create this design. Not my original plan but it turned out to be like this and I love it in a way. 

It teaches me where to go to vectorized my sketch for free online. 

It teaches me patience and never giving up on a design no matter how frustrating it may seem. 

It teaches me to value original art and not just a copycat. 

Most of the times, designing made me reflect and be grateful. 

Because of the rain, I finished the following:

  • 2 Invitations and 2 Thank you Cards on Zazzle.
  • 2 Pattern Designs for Redbubble. 
  • 1 T-shirt design for Teepublic. 

Seven designs as opposed to only one design I am making weekly because of busy. I am trying to upload more in two days (off) because this is the only thing I can control in Print-on-Demand. My goal is to reach the 5K additional income to add up on my salary so we can live comfortably. 

However, this is something that I can't control, so instead, I counted the designs that I should be making for me to have the chance to at least reach that goal. 

I've never been proud of  myself to finish these much designs for the first time. Maybe, I would try to create more t-shirts in TeePublic and promote my work there instead of  Dashery because I notice that my views are getting lower and lower in there. 

I hope I can create daily despite of my work. What do you think?
