Word Art Wednesday Challenge - Stamp Simply!

Hello Delightful Friends!

Word Art Wednesday is blessed to have Stamp Simply as our sponsor this week!  Hope you will join us for a chance to win a prize.  Our challenge is Anything Goes - Family Friendly and runs for two weeks.  Each week you can share up to 5 new creations for a chance to win!!  

I've used the very versatile stamp set called Seasonal Wreaths: Spring & Summer (Stamp Simply line).  This has a lot of useful sentiments that I use frequently and a matching die (purchased separately).  I love the two part wreath and need to get more creative with it, there are some fun possibilities.  Stamp Simply has a great product line and some great ideas on their blog, so be sure and check it out and make a wish list!! You never know who will win...

Here's my card:

I've used watercolor paper to stamp on. First I used the vine image and stamped with Versamark Ink, then heat embossed with  Ranger Gold embossing powder, then I stamped the "Spring" floral swag onto the wreath, again I heat embossed it in gold.  Then I used the Karin Brushmarkers (Plum 197, Cerise 375 and Olive Green 281) and a small brush and water to blend the colors.  

I used the the Versamark Ink pad and heat embossed with the gold, along the edge of the white card base to create the strip of gold.  I cut my water color paper to 4.25 x 5".  I popped up the Scripture Art and placed it at the bottom of the water color paper. I love the gold, it makes the card have an elegant yet simple look.  Hope you like it!

This weeks Scripture Art from Hosea 2:19:

Hello Delightful Friends,

Word Art Wednesday Anything Goes Challenge (weeks 527-528) is starting and last for 2 weeks!  Don't forget to play along and leave some love along the way by sharing a kind word!

I was waiting for the winner of the blog hop to get back to me before posting my winner.

Congratulations to Heather Mills from Rhode Island, your prize package is on it's way!!

Here is my card and the Scripture art for this challenge (the Scripture art is optional but we love it if you would use it)

Card ingredients:

Base: white 100lb card stock; behind the front panel is a A2 cut pink card stock (Bazzill)

The front panel (cherry pop card stock) was die cut with Stitched with Love cutting plate (Taylored Expressions) 

Scripture heart was cut out with the Lawn Fawn Stitched Heart Die.

Since Valentines Day is right around the corner, I wanted to try out the cutting plate and it cuts like a dream, plus you get all those cute little hearts.  I've got mine in a little container for future use.

I kept my card simple and also flat for mailing.  This style is great if you need a bunch, just change out the sentiments and color of card stock, even the size of the heart can be changed. I made another with pink and toffee card stock that is super sweet.

Thanks for visiting and I pray you will stay close to Jesus, we know it won't be long, when we will see Him face to face!

Word Art Wednesday Challenge - The Project Bin

Hello Delightful Friends!

Happy Thanksgiving to the USA!  Remember all the things we can be thankful for. I sure can have a lot to say about that, especially in the times we are living in right now.  But for now I just want to thank and praise the Lord for His faithfulness and redemption.  We certainly live in challenging times but Jesus reminds us to stay focused on Him.  He is our strength, our strong and mighty tower.

This weeks challenge is here for Word Art Wednesday and we have a terrific sponsor in the Project Bin.  Be sure to check out their Black Friday sale!! HERE.  Check it out beforehand there are some awesome sales going on now!!

Here is my card for this weeks challenge (anything goes/family friendly): 

 (Sorry the photo isn't the greatest - the read card stock is not part of the card)

Scripture Art for this weeks challenge from Jeremiah: 

 

Ingredients:

Stamp: Boughs & Berries Background (Taylored Expressions)

Paper: Toffee 100lb c/s (TE); Neenah bright white 80lb c/s

Ink: Lime Zest (TE)  PrismaColor Pencil (red for the berries)

Dies: Stitched Circle Die (Simon Says Stamp)

The Scripture verse is amazing when you meditate on what Jeremiah is saying. I have to ask you:  Is the Word of God a joy and a rejoicing in your heart today?  Can you say that you are called of the Lord? If you are born again you are definitely called by the Lord, even by name.  He knew you when you were in your mother's womb and He knows how many hairs are on your head.  That is pretty amazing.  God's word is so precious and the Bible says it is "living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart" (Hebrews 4:12) no wonder the enemy of our souls hates it so much.  It's what gives me hope, even when this world is in such a mess, His Word gives me hope and a peace, that no one can take away.  Praise the Lord, that is definitely something to be thankful for.  I am praying right now for anyone who reads this and is struggling.... won't you please call on the name of the Lord Jesus - He is waiting for you to reach out to Him, He wants you to come boldly to the throne of grace, that you may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.  What a Savior!

Thanks for visiting and blessings to you,

Word Art Wednesday Challenge - Psalm 30:12

Hello!

Hope you all are doing well! We have our Word Art Wednesday Challenge and a wonderful sponsor for this Anything Goes /Family Friendly Challenge : Really Reasonable Ribbon  check out their crafty blog Here.  So much pretty ribbon and twine, plus tutorials! 

Here is my card with our Scripture Art from Psalm 30:12  I thought it was perfect for November.

Here are the ingredients:

Fall Foliage Background Stamp and Stencil set (Taylored Expressions)

Ink: Toffee, Peapod, Granny Smith, Candy Corn, Dijon (all T.E.)

Desert Storm cardstock (Neenah)

Candy Corn Cardstock (T.E.)

Dies: Stitched Leaves (Lawn Fawn)

Deckled Rectangle (Spellbinders)

Nuvo Crystal Drops - Metallic - Auburn Pearls

Twine (stash)

The same inks that I stenciled with I used on a piece of white card stock and using blender brushes, I customized the leaf colors, and die cut them out.  After diecutting them I used the blender brush to go around the edges of each leaf using the Toffee ink, it's very subtle.
