A Bunny

This week's Squigglefly challenge is to make a baby card.


I used the Funky Bunny by Cheryl Grant Alger and my sentiment is from the set called New Baby Sentiments by Elizabeta Kushner. This bunny is one of my favorite images and I thought it would make a great baby card. I realized while I was doing this post that the eggs are more for Easter and I should have put a button or flower to cover them, so I will be doing that later today. If I don't do it now, it will be given like this because I am always scrambling in my stash to grab a card at the last minute!

Everyone needs another baby card so I hope you join us and get another one done. Hugz!

    Nancy this is so darling! I love all the textures you've got going on with the fibers and the corrugated piece. I think the little eggs look like part of the bow anyway, so it's just perfect!

    Oh this is so FUN, Nancy! That's the first word that came to mind. There are so many neat details, and after the eye rests on the ADORABLE bunny, there's lots more to take in. Love it.

    You never cease to amaze me with the elements you add to your cards to make them extraordinary! The mesh, cardboard and pretty fibers are things I'd never think to put on a baby card, and yet just look at how well they work together here! Well done Nancy!

    Oh, Nancy, I have this image and absolutely love it. I would not have thought to do a baby card, but LOVE it that way. I love using cardboard on cards. Your card is a real winner.

    Great card Nancy. Novel idea to use a bunny on a baby card. Not a bad choice at all since bunnies are soft and hugable just like babies. Loving it. - Jim

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
