Word Art Wednesday and Joy Clair~

Hi guys!!

I'm participating in Word Art Wednesday using

stamps by Joy Clair!  Word Art Wednesday is a challenge blog

 using scripture, as a starting point, to create a card.

This month you have the option of using the following
scripture on your card but it is not required to participate.

Joy Clair has a fabulous selection of bible Journaling stamps

called Color By Faith.  I started  there, using the Prayer Warrior set by Joy Clair.

I'm doing a personal study on prayer so this set speaks to me on many levels.                                       

The background for the card was created using Distress Oxides, watered down,

and the card front is placed in the wet ink, picking up random sections of ink.  It

is then dried and touched up adding more ink.  The main image is stamped

over the background with Archival ink/Jet Black.  The paper is torn on one edge

 and then mounted on brown and green cardstock.  The card front is then attached

to a folded card base.  The arrow is added and then colored in

 with watered down Distress Oxide ink.  The sentiment is stamped and then the

cardstock paper is torn to match the card front.  Buttons and twine are

 added to complete the card.

Go to Word Art Wednesday to link up a card and view all the beautiful

created cards being displayed.

Challenges

These two layouts I did this last week for a challenge on AC Bailey and one on the Fiskars site. I love doing the challenges-for one it makes me get out of my scrappy box and try different things. It might be different design layout or it might be using new techniques. Anyway its all good cause your learning something new. My challenge to you is to try something new. Sketches are a great place to start to get out of your scrappy box.

I hope you are encouraged to try something different and make it "purty". and have fun with it. Have a great scrappy day!!!
