Peanut Butter and Jelly Ale, a Flower, and Some Butterflies

 It's T-Day over at Elizabeth's where we share something related to drinks.

This week I have a fun Peanut Butter and Jelly Ale from Catawba Brewery.  It is fabulous and, of course, my grocery only had the one pack.  I may have to drive to South Carolina and get some more!

I also have a  few cards to share - I made one of them a few weeks ago and can't remember if I shared or not.  The flower die on the first card is a current one from Close to My Heart.  I fell in love with it at my aunt's house and had to buy it.  The background is modeling paste added to an embossing folder and smooshed on card stock (by hand). 

The butterflies are from DRS Designs - I am having fun with them. 
Hope you are having a wonderful week and happy T-day!

Hugz,

Nancy

    PB and jelly beer. I'd try that. How does the jelly taste? I like PB beer so why not add jelly. And Nice cards too. You inspire me to try making some more as I used to make a lot of them. The white one has some gorgeous details. I hope you have a great T day and week ahead also Nancy. Hugs-Erika

    I can't imagine PB&J beer lol. I love your cards and that flower die makes beautiful flowers. I would be sorely tempted to buy one if I wasn't trying to save money. Happy T Day! Elle/EOTC xx

    I can't imagine PB&J beer either! LOL! Both of your cards are absolutely stunning! Love the delicate look of the flowers on the top and the pretty design on the butterflies on the second! Wonderful inspiration today friend!

    I am not sure about the combination of PB & J would go with beer, but it must be great if you are willing to drive out of state to buy more.

    I absolutely LOVE your cards. Both are fabulous. Reinforces why I don't make cards. They are both absolutely stunning and I am delighted you took the time to explain them to us.

    Thanks for sharing your beer and your cards with us for T this Tuesday, dear Nancy.

    You always find the most interesting beers. I think I stick to straight beers, though. Your cards are beautiful, I especially like the one with the butterflies.
    Thank you for your lovely comment on my blog!

    Beautiful cards Nancy, I love the one with the beautiful, bold flower.
    The Ale sounds interesting, not sure if I would like it to be honest.
    For some strange reason blogger is putting your comments straight into my spam folder, along with quite a few others!

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
