He Makes All Things New...

I love this verse!  In the movie 'The Passion' this verse quoted by Jesus just jumped out at me.    I used my silhouette cameo to cut out the labels, inked the edges, added pretty paper and flowers with some stick on pearls and a little satin bow.  The base of the card is kraft card stock. Some foam square adhesives give the sentiment dimension.  I want to enter this card into the Our Daily Bread Designs 'new life' challenge and the ABC Design Team's 'anything goes' challenge.

Thanks for visiting my blog and have a great day!

A Fun Butterfly...

This must be my week for trying something different.  I'm not sure just how I came up with this color combination, but I do know where I got the design inspiration.  Tuesday Morning Sketches offered this awesome sketch this week.





This is the card I made.

 I chose cream cardstock and applied a panel of diamond printed  paper in rose and burgundy.  For the diagonal spaced rectangles I  used squares of burgundy paper with some vintage style print on them and layered them on cream panels with burgundy inked edges using SU Bravo Burgundy.  For the circle I used a cream paper doily cut with my silhouette and topped it with a scalloped circle also cut with my silhouette.  I inked the edges of the scalloped circle with SU Rose Royal ink and decided it needed to be a bit darker so I added Bravo Burgundy as well.  I really like the duel colors edging this circle!   For the butterfly I used a Studio112 clear mini stamp and SU Rose Royal ink.  I colored the butterfly wings with my colored pencils and blended it with my prisma blender pen.  The body of the butterfly is colored in with plain old black marker.  I them stamped a bit of foliage around the perimeter of the circle with SU  Always Artichoke ink and a rubber stamp from my stash.  The circle and the sentiment are adhered with foam dimensional adhesives.

Color Challenge...


I love a good color challenge  and The Play Date Cafe always has one that can get my creative juices flowing.   For this project I started with the avocado green card base.  I affixed a light blue panel to the front and cut out some fun flourishes in the green with my silhouette.  I glued the flourishes to the blue panel and die cut a matching butterfly which I also embossed with flourishes using my Big Shot and a cuttlebug embossing folder.  Next I dug out my nestabilities label 1dies and  some grey cardstock and cut a sweet little shape to build upon. The edges of the shape I inked with SU Always Artichoke ink.   I punched out some paper flowers with a 'Picture Punch' and added green pearls for the centers.  I also added green pearls for the body of the butterfly.  I glued the flowers to the grey die cut and added a blue chiffon ribbon and attached this to the card with dimensional adhesives. The sentiment is stamped on grey cardstock with edges inked with the SU Artichoke and attached with dimensional adhesives.

Here is their lovely color story for this challenge.






And here is my interpretation of it.
