A Few Last Minute Christmas Cards

I hope you all have your holiday cards already done and mailed out, but I am slacking as always.  I have a few last minute Christmas cards to share:
This one was made with the new DRS Designs Christmas Door Knocker image and some greenery made with the Tim Holtz Sizzix Holiday Greens dies.  I colored it up with some SU! markers and Stickles. 
This one was made with the Flamingo Palm Tree Scene in the background, some fussy cut shells from the new Seashell Christmas Tree image, and the new Seas and Greetings Greeting.   I used some funky fibers and pearls to add more texture to the wreath.  The window die is from MFTs and the wood grained embossing folder is from SU!.
I made a bunch of these.  I used several different fonts to create the quote from The Polar Express movie (hubby's favorite), I  watercolored a few lines on the left side an did some splatters.  It needed something else so I stamped the bells (from DRS Designs).  Some Stickles made the bells look a little better since they were over-stamped on the watercolor. 

Many hugz and well wishes!

Nancy

    Your talent is fantastic, Nancy! Those first two cards aren't cards at all! They should be framed in shadow boxes or in some other way become annual Christmas home decor for the lucky recipients! And the evergreen border, bells, and schplatter on the third one are utterly divine!!

    Thank you for your visit and your lovely words! Mwah!! 🎄Happy Holiday Hugs, Darnell

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

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...

Unopened Mail And My Grocery List

We arrived back from our Las Vegas trip last night so the only thing on my Kitchen Counter is unopened mail and my grocery list.  I have looked up the recipes for most the great food we ate (or wish we ate) in Las Vegas including Bacon Waffles and Chicken and Waffles - so my counter top should look awesome tomorrow (or as soon as I get a waffle maker).  We had lots of fun in Las Vegas but not as much as Crystal and Joey.  If we were still 21 we would have had a blast!  No luck with gambling - but I only gained 1 pound which is a miracle!
