Isaiah 25:1

To make my card I scanned Isaiah 25 & 26 from my Bible and printed it out on white cardstock to use as my background.  I used the Scripture Word Art from Word Art Wednesday 

I printed this out on my computer, trimming it close to the verse.  I then sponged black ink around all of the edges and attached it to my card with 3D foam dots.  I then sponged black ink around all of the edges of my card...added a black bow to the top center and then attached four black brads.

For You

Made this card using this adorable image from Artbymiran called Annabelle

I colored her in with Memento markers.  For the background of my card I embossed it with a flower pattern, I wanted the background color to match the main color of her dress...so I sponged on a pink background, then sponged some white over it.   I cut out Annabelle and attached her with 3D foam dots.  I added a blue bow to the one corner, and then added two flowers, adding clear gems to the centers.  I then used a 3D sticker of a jar with flowers that says For You.

Just A Note with Butterflies

I just found a new blog called CCEE STAMPERS

I like what I see on there :-)

Their challenge right now is to Repurpose Something.

I have a friend who sews onto cards, and a while back she sent me a card with a beautiful butterfly on it.   That is what I am "repurposing".

Here is the card I made:

I embossed a white card with a Sizzix Butterfly corner pattern embossing folder.  I colored in the butterflies and the patterns on there with Memento markers.  Then stamped on the Just a Note.

On the card from my friend, I cut the butterfly off, and attached it with 3D dots.

God Bless the USA

Made this card using a blue cardstock which I embossed with a star pattern, then I sandpapered it.

The Flag Heart and the Sentiment are from Our Daily Bread Designs stamp set Heart and Soul.

I then used ODBD Ornate Hearts Die Cuts to cut out the heart and the red border.

I colored in the heart with Memento markers.   For the sentiment I distressed the edges of it, then sponged on red ink around it.

Dance

Made this card for the challenge at UnstampaBelles.

I embossed my card with a music embossing folder, and then sponged on red ink.  At first I wasn't real happy with the way it looked...but the more I looked at it, the more I liked it.

The dancing couple is cut out using my Cricut machine, and the Dance is a 3D sticker.

The "belt" around the ladies waist is white ribbon.

Isaiah 45:18

I made this card to display the Majestic-ness of our Lord God.

I cut out a large circle (earth) and used several colors of ink and paint on it.

I printed out Isaiah 45:18, cutting each sentence and separating them on to my card.

I then used a star punch, adding a star to each top corner.

Isaiah 45:18 

For this is what the LORD says— He who created the heavens, He is God; He who fashioned and made the earth, He founded it; He did not create it to be empty, but formed it to be inhabited— He says: “I am the LORD, and there is no other."
