Butterfly Tag Set with Creative Worship Stamps~

Hi there!
Today I'm sharing my 7th project using 
Creative Worship Stamps.  I have created a tag set 
using Butterflies in Flight.  Super cute set!!! These are
hand cut tags.

I love the color combo of the Distress Oxide inks on these tags.  I used
Peacock Feathers and Walnut Stain.  The ink used for the silhouette
butterflies is Versafine/Onyx Blk. 

Both of the tags are created the same way just different words and placement
of the butterfly.  The tags are dipped in a mix of Distress Oxide inks, first
the Peacock Feathers and then the Walnut Stain. Heat dry after each color
ink.  Stamps are added for the background.

I used Texture Tiles #1, Vintage Ledger, Pick a Number and Vintage
Snippets. The bottom border is created with Authentic Faith. Vintage
trim is added above the label shape.  The colored butterflies are from
the Made New set.  The words are added from the Psalm 119 Wordfetti
Stamp set.  

Thanks for stopping by!

The Goodness of God Journal Page with Creative Worship Stamps~

Hi there!
Today I'm sharing my 6th project using The Goodness
of God by Creative Worship Stamps.  I'm creating on a 
4" X 6" mixed media art journal.  It is a little 
bigger than a tag. 

The background was created by dabbing ink (Distress Oxide) to
an acrylic stamping block, spritz with water and then dab on
the journal page.  Dry with a heat tool and then add another color
of ink.  I used Dusty Concord, Mowed Lawn and 
Evergreen Bough by Ranger.  Background stamps and a stencil
were added next.  I used Texture Tiles #1, Vintage Snippets,
Peaceful Botanicals (Versafine/Onyx Blk.) and Leaf Fronds (stencil).  

I used Crackle Paste with the Peace Joy Love stencil and added
Distress Oxide ink, over the numbers, to bring out the crackle effect.
The sentiment is from The Goodness of God stamp set.  To complete
the page, speckle with white acrylic paint. Tip: An old toothbrush works great.

Bookmark Tags with Creative Worship Stamps~

Hi there!
Today I'm sharing my 5th project using stamps and
words, special words by Creative Worship Stamps.  I see
bookmarks are trending so I made a couple using tags,
with a mixed media swing:):)

The tags are created the same, I just did two of them:)
Different words but the same.  These will look great marking pages
in a book or the Bible.

The tag background is a mix of Distress Oxide ink. I used Mustard Seed and
Blueprint Sketch. I then added the Psalms 23 BG stamp along with
Peaceful Botanicals and pick a number to complete the pattern.

The top of the tag is added to the bottom of the bookmark tag using the
Sew Many Stitches Stamp.  I added reinforcements to the tops and bottoms
 of the tags.  The sentiments are stamped on extra tags (needed for
bottom) and then trimmed out in a strip format.  The tags are hand cut (no
die).  This is a fun project, nice gifts also.
You will also need ribbon, fabric or twine for the topper tie.  Speckle with
white acrylic paint for the mixed media look.  I edged the sides of the
tags white acrylic paint. 

Thanks for stopping by!

Praying for You Card with Creative Worship Stamps~

Hi there!
Today I'm sharing my 4th project using the Snowdrops 
Stamp and die by Creative Worship to create a mixed
media style card.

The card background is created using a mix of Distress Oxide ink. I used several
colors (listed below) along with stamps. I then used Crackle Paste with the
Diamond Tile Stencil to create texture.  As the Crackle Paste dries the cracks
form.  Adding more ink really highlights the cracks. 

The sentiment is embossed and added to a Banner die cut from black
cardstock. The card front is speckled with white acrylic paint.

Supplies used: Creative Worship Stamps: Snowdrops Stamp & die, Banner
die set, Vintage Snippets, pick a number and Diamond Tile Stencil.
Ink: Ranger: Distress Oxide ink: Rustic Wilderness, Prize Ribbon,
Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire and Salty Ocean. Versafine: 
Onyx Black. other: acrylic white paint, Ranger: Crackle Paste/Opaque,
embossing powder.

Praising HIM tag set with Creative Worship Stamps~

Hi there!
Today I'm sharing my 3rd project for
Creative Worship Stamps.  I will be creating a mixed media
 tag set, with Women of Praise (love this set).    

When I'm creating sets, it is just as easy doing one as it is three. These were 
fun to create and I loved how the Funky Textures 2 made some cool
borders for the bottom of the tags. The tags are created together, in
assembly line fashion. The only thing is different praise people and
different words.

The tag is a hand cut tag (no die).  When I create with them I like them bigger.
This is about a 3 1/4 W x 5 1/4 L (not counting the stamped borders).
I did a mix of Distress Oxide inks and then added the stencil.
Then came a mix of stamps, going for a messy look. 
 The borders were than prepared for three tags. Stamped, colored and  
cut out. They are stapled to the bottom of the tag. Added a fabric
tie and button to the top.  Did all of this two more times.

Once you get one done, two more go fast.  The last thing I like to
do is speckle with white acrylic paint.  An old toothbrush works
good for this. 

Supplies used: Creative Worship Stamps: Vintage Ledger Page, Women of
Praise, Funky Textures 2, Foliage Silhouettes, Texture Tiles 1, Fun Florals,
Typed Thoughts, Sew Many Stitches, Vintage Snippets and Star 
Pattern Stencil. Ink: Ranger: Distressed Oxide: Mowed Lawn, Rustic
Wilderness, Cracked Pistachio. Versafine: Onyx Black. other: Posca: white
 marker pen and white acrylic paint. other: fabric, twine and embossing powder.

Family of God Card Set with Creative Worship Stamps~

Hi there!
Starting the week with more Creative Worship projects!
Today I'm sharing a card set using the Family of God
Stamp (as the focal) by Creative Worship Stamps. You know 
I can't use just one stamp!

These were really fun to create, especially the card background. I
love making the cards different BUT a set.  Kinda of tricky!!

Both cards are created using the same supplies just a little more of
 this or that and placement is different.  For example: the birds are two
different stamps but same style, so it works well with creating a set
of cards.

I started by placing the stencil over the cardstock and using different inks
created the base and then added in the stamps for a mixed media look. The 
silhouette stamps are amazing with this type of card background.  They 
just pop off the card.  The church die cut is added with minimal coloring.
I just hit it with left over Distress Oxide inks from the card background. 
Supplies used: Creative Worship Stamps: Vintage Ledger Page Clear,
Vintage Snippets, Nature Silhouettes 4, Sitting Pretty, Faith Wordfetti,Too
Faith Definitions, Women of Praise, Family of God Stamp & die and
Star Pattern Stencil. Inks: Ranger: Salvaged Patina, Rustic Wilderness
and Gathered Twigs. Versafine: Onyx Black. other: white acrylic paint,
 white embossing powder and Posca: white paint pen.

Hi there!
I'm so excited to be Guest Designing for
 Creative Worship Stamps in the month of April. 
I love to Art Journal so that is my starting point. I get
inspiration from scripture, music and everyday life.

I started by adding color (Distress Oxide ink) to the page and
then a stencil was added in.  The Star Pattern Stencil was perfect!!
Water marks were added by sprinkling water, over the ink, and then
dabbing off. So fun!    

 

The stamps were added in and then highlighted with Distress Oxide inks.
I use them like watercolors. I will list below. The words are embossed
on black cardstock.  The Leaf Fronds Stencil is added using Walnut Nut
Stain.  The Faith Definitions Stamp is added along with a round
paper clip for open/closure. 
Products used: Creative Worship Stamps: Have Courage, Grunge Elements 2,
Faith Definitions, Typewriter Text BG, Family of God & die, Vintage Snippets 
and Patient Echinacea. Creative Worship Stencils: Star Pattern and Leaf Fronds.
