Word Art Wednesday 11/11

Welcome to a new Word Art Wednesday challenge! I rewrote the verse from II Corinthians 9:11 in the NIV version. I really went outside my usual box by keeping it all in black and white. Yikes...no color! I stamped the fall border designs with Versafine Clair ink.

The plaid paper is from the Black & White Plaid 6x6 pad from My Favorite Things. It has a glossy sheen to the papers which makes it hard to photograph without a glare. 

 

STAMPS: Framing Fall (Papertrey Ink).

OTHER: Button Brads.

 

We hope you can play along for a chance to win a prize! Thanks for stopping by and commenting.  ~Wanda
 

Getting Flakey

 

I went a bit flakey last week and die cut multiple sizes and colors of snowflakes to create these four cards (plus a few duplicates). My faves were the ones where I used splattered and embossed backgrounds. I sprayed distress ink spray stains onto Bristol Smooth Surface paper  then dry embossed using a large snowflake folder. Others were created with patterned paper backgrounds.

STAMPS: Scene Everywhere Winter (Papertrey Ink); Sentiment Suite: Christmas (The Greetery). 

That's a wrap for now. Thanks for stopping by!  ~Wanda 

Tic Tac Toe Challenge

 

Karren has a great new board of inspiration for the new Tic Tac Toe Challenge! I used the diagonal row of Snow/Snowman, Free and Christmas Sentiment. Lots of die cutting and just one simple, stamped sentiment from the Winter Collage Tag stamp set from Creative Worship Stamps. It was cut out using the word window punch from Stampin' Up. Patterned papers are from the Blue Christmas 6x6 pad by Recollections. 

DIES: Postal Frames (The Greetery); Love to Layer: Arches, Love to Layer: Decorative Bracket, Bring Home the Holidays (Papertrey Ink).

SSS Wednesday Challenge

 

The Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge has "Anything Goes" for their theme this week. I'm working on Christmas cards, so went with this collage tag stamp/die set from Creative Worship Stamps. The tag was stamped with black pigment ink then clear embossed. That made it easier to color it using an aquapainter brush and distress inks.

 

STAMPS: Winter Collage Tag, Christmas Text Background (Creative Worship Stamps).

INK: Versafine Clair Nocturne; Worn Lipstick, Fossilized Amber, Peacock Feathers, Mowed Lawn, Cracked Pistachio distress inks (Ranger).

PAPER: Pure Poppy, True Black, Stampers Select White (Papertrey Ink); Bristol Smooth Surface.

DIES: Tag & More (Creative Worship Stamps); Love to Layer: Notebook (PTI); Stitched Rectangle STAX Die-Namics (My Favorite Things).

OTHER: Gold cording; Clear embossing powder. 

 

 Thanks for stopping by!  Have a blessed day!  ~Wanda

 

Word Art Wednesday

 

It's the last Wednesday of October and the last Word Art Wednesday of the month. My colors aren't very "fallish" but I worked ahead on this card beginning of September and the temps were VERY HOT - lol! 

Psalm 16:11 means that true, lasting joy and eternal fulfillment are found only in a close, personal relationship with God and the hope of eternal life. How can we apply this?  Seek God's guidance, spend time in His presence and trade in temporary habits for lasting spiritual joy. 

For starters, I chose a pierced cover die panel that was in my leftover pile. I rewrote the verse in NIV then printed it on my HP OfficeJet Pro printer and die cut it with a doily die from Papertrey Ink. A patterned paper banner and a handful of violets - color blended with brushes - finished up the project.

STAMPS: Sentiment was computer generated.

INK:Amethyst Allure, Winter Wisteria, Limeade Ice, New Leaf, Bright Buttercup (PTI).

PAPER: Stampers Select White, Bitty Big: Amethyst Allure (PTI).

DIES: Delicate Doilies, Into the Blooms:Violets (Papertrey Ink); Banner Flag STAX Die-Namics (My Favorite Things); Pinwheel Quilt Top (Concord & 9th).

Hope to see you in the gallery! Remember, our sponsor is giving away a $25 gift card to some lucky participant!  ~Wanda 

Paper Players Challenge

 

The Paper Players Challenge has a sketch for us this week. I flipped the elements to the opposite side after adding white splatters to the tag and the dark green background. It's hard to see the tone on tone stamping...it's very subtle (I stamped the Christmas text with Pinefeather ink over Pinefeather paper). The poinsettia would have popped more if the tag was white and the image was colored. I'm thinking this needs a do-over! 😝

 

 

STAMPS: Christmas Text Background, Winter Collage Tag (Creative Worship Stamps).

INK: Pinefeather (Papertrey Ink); Versamark.

PAPER: Mirror Gold; Pure Poppy, Pinefeather, Ocean Tides (PTI).

DIES: Tag & More (Creative Worship Stamps). 

 

Thanks for stopping by!  ~Wanda
 

Sunday Stamps Challenge

 

I am playing along with the Sunday Stamps challenge to "get sketchy". I subbed a circular wreath instead of an oval and CASEd a card by Joe Sysavath that I saw on IG. I loved the two shades of pinks paired with silver glitter paper. This card was for a lady who survived a bout with cancer and I was celebrating with a party attended by family and friends.

 

STAMPS: This is Big Sentiments: Thanks (Papertrey Ink).

INK: Versafine Clair Nocturne.

PAPER: Bitty Big: Sweet Blush, Pale Peony, Sweet Blush, Stampers Select White (PTI); Silver glitter.

DIES: Blueprints 27, Leaves (My Favorite Things); This is Big Sentiments: Thanks (PTI).

 

Thanks again to Joey for his inspiration with this card!  ~Wanda
