Raining Hearts

I am posting my cards from last week late - last week and weekend was so busy that I never had time to post anything (or catch up on blog visits - I promise I will be by soon and catch up).  Hope you have had some time to relax soon and are not like me!
 
This card was made for the Outlawz Paper A La Mode Challenge.  The Challenge is still running and is Anything Goes with a twist.  The twist is you have to use at least two mediums.  My mediums are SU! Reinker, colored pencil and Stickles. 
 
 
 
Our sponsor is A Day for Daisies and they were sweet enough to provide me with this adorable image called Elephant Raining Love.  I made this card with the image and computer generated my sentiment.  I also made a matching Bible Journaling Page with it too - I will post that tonight when I get home.
 
I made my bg using acetate smooshing and some SU! Pixie Pink Reinker.  I colored my image with Water Color Pencils and my finger (finger painting with water and pencil is so fun). 
 
I am just about done with my Valentine's Cards - now it is time for St Pat's Day and Easter!
 
Remember Love is Raining Down on you every minute of every day - just stop and feel it!
John 3:16; Romans 5:5, etc.

The Sea, Words of Courage, and Some Ink/Watercolor

Hello friends, Last week felt like a stormy sea of its own with my husband recovering from recent hip replacement surgery and several friends and family members facing life battles - my heart was caught in the waves. Computer issues and lack of sleep didn't help. Mark 4:39-41 reminded me: even when the winds rage, Jesus is in the boat. He speaks peace over the chaos. “Peace, be still.” I needed that reminder. Several lovely Creative Worship Stamps sets were used in the making of this watercolored and inked BAJ page: The Sea (the boat and verse), Scene Silhouettes: Tall Grasses, and Have Courage . This page was stamped, then watercolored with Daniel Smith Watercolors. I finished it off with some Tim Holtz Distress Ink (Vintage Photo, Mustard Seed, and Ground Expresso), plus a little bit of Silver Stickles. We have a lot of things going on in life and you time is precious, thank you for spending a little bit with me.  Hugz, Nancy

Flowers, a Flag, and Some Wise Words

Hello Crafty Friends! I love Halle's theme at **Art*Journal*Journey* this month: Botanicals. So many possibilities... I combined the botanical theme with some of the colors in ARTNUDGE#725A and came up with this Bible Art Journal page focusing on 1 Timothy 2:1-2. I also made a patriotic prayer card too. 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 think we can all agree that the world needs much prayer right now and it is an easy step we can take.   I experimented on this journal page. 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. This time I used Daniel Smith Ground Medium in Titanium White (I mixed it with 10 parts water). I loved it and will be using it in the fut...

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
