Barn Inspired Card

This week's MFP SpeedyTV Inspiration Challenge is all about some old barns:



I was inspired by them all but mainly barn 2 and 3. I used the MFP Java Time set and Medallion set.


Hope you will join in this fun challenge!

    A super cute card for the challenge. I love how the barn wood looks like it is peeling and how you re-created the coffee ad with you own design.

    I just love that distressed wood in purple. Please tell me you did this yourself and there is a technique I can copy. The purple and brown just look so good together.

    I love your background, Nancy, so very barn inspired it is. The sentiment is warm and endearing and the image so perfect to go with it.
    Happy New Year, my friend,

    So agreeing with how fabulous your chippy plum background looks, Nancy. I would never have thought to pair it with the warm browns, but my, how amazing it looks.

Flowers, a Flag, and Some Wise Words

In these verses, Paul tells Timothy (and all of us) to pray for everyone but he especially calls out prayer for kings and leaders. He indicates that this type of prayer could lead us to a tranquil and quite life in all godliness and dignity.

I usually cover any bible journal pages with gesso before painting on them, but I have issues with the gesso gumming up my Micron pens or unevenly taking color.

Wise Words for Life's Storms

 My first post as a Guest Designer for Creative Worship Stamps. This watercolor and ink card features one of my favorite CWS sentiments - Big God . I am so grateful He is there in storms and this stamp beautifully underscores His power. The main panel of this card is watercolor paper and was painted with Daniel Smith Watercolors and Liquid Ink (the white highlights in the rain drops). The words were stamped with black ink from Close to My Heart. Hugz, Nancy
