FS369 ~ Blue Hawaii ~

 

Happy Saturday!  It is a beautiful day here in the bluegrass state.  I took the opportunity to mop my floors, do some grocery shopping and clean my car!  And even though I am just a little tired, it was well worth it!  I hope this day finds you doing the things that matter to you.  

 

Today I am sharing a card I created to for the Featured Stamper challenge at Splitcoast.  I used a simple blue and white color scheme, embossing the focal mat with a "Hawaiian" themed embossing folder..."  Now, if I were only soaking up the sun on the beautiful beaches there...  **sigh**

I inked the sentiment in Memento's Danube Blue and framed the sentiment panel with some lovely blossoms from my stash.  The ladybug stamp may be found in this month's Our Daily Bread Designs release, Zinnia.  And the lovely scripture may be found in ODBD's Bee Happy set.  Aren't they yummy???

 

 

Thanks for stopping by!  Until next time...

 

Blessings!!!!

WAW93 ~ Psalm 119:33 ~ Teach Me

Thank you, Thank you!

 

With so many teachers and students going back to school this week our featured scripture, Psalm 119:33 takes on new meaning...

 

Today I incorporated an old Mojo Monday sketch with lots of layers and embossing.  The bottom DP layer has a beehive pattern while the green layer has a poppy pattern.  I roughed up the beige layer with my bare hands.  (a great way to take out frustrations...) and inked all edges with a black distress ink.  A left over music pattern adds a bit of melody to the card.  I received the flower on a gift many moons ago and added a cream seam binding bow with tiny pink heart and twine accent.  I love recycling, don't you?  Thanks for stopping by!  Until next time...

Blessings...

ODBD - Stamping in Time With Betty!

It is time for the ODBD Stamping In Time Challenge(SNTODBD41)! The assignment is to use Our Daily Bread Design stamps. The challenge this rotation is embossing! Use dry or heat embossing on your cards/projects this rotation Remember, the more you play the more you increase your chance to win! We look forward to seeing what you create using ODBD stamps! Make sure to check out the ODBD blog for complete details on this challenge. And be sure to link your creation on ODBD's site using Mr. Linky.



Today's card has two types of embossing. I dry embossed one panel (stars panel) and then lightly brushed it with Versamark. I then loaded it with embossing powder taking care to shake off the excess and powered up the heat gun! I like how it left a little of the DP exposed. Kinda cool! I also dipped the silver starfish brad in Versamark and loaded it with embossing powder and heated it to match. The verse and image may be found in the ODBD Light of the World set! Thanks as always for looking and have a great day!
