Word Art Wednesday Jan. 1

 


Happy New Year everyone! We have another Word Art Wednesday challenge happening and the scripture for inspiration is from Acts 2:28. I focused on the word "joy" in that verse and because Waffle Flower Crafts is our sponsor this time, I used their postage collage stamps/dies/stencils and added the word "joy" to the main panel. Inside the card, I have the full verse printed.

I started with color blending 5 dye inks: Lilac Grace, Lovely Lady,

Melon Berry, Limeade Ice, Blueberry Sky dye inks from Papertrey Ink. I then white embossed Wild Flower Silhouettes and added some elements from the Postage Collage stamp set.

STAMPS: Postage Collage, Wild Flower Silhouettes (Waffle Flower).
INK: See above description. Also used Versamark and Versafine Clair Nocturne.
PAPER: Lovely Lady, Stamper's Select White (PTI).
DIES: Postage Collage (Waffle Flower).
OTHER: Postage Collage Blocks stencil (Waffle Flower); Alabaster embossing powder (Brutus Monroe).
 
We'd love to have you join us in this challenge that runs for 2 weeks. Happy stamping!  ~Wanda


 

Color Throwdown #824

 

Welcome to another Color Throwdown challenge! We have an update which is we will be a semi monthly challenge rather than a weekly one. We will go live at midnight every first and third Wednesday of each month. This will give you double the time to create and add your beautiful creation to our gallery. For our first challenge in the new year, we have some great neutrals: black, white and gray. I went with these leafy die cuts layered over a stenciled, striped background.   
STAMPS: Just Sentiments: With Sympathy, Inside Greetings: With Sympathy (Papertrey Ink).
INK: Versafine Clair Nocturne; Weathervane (PTI).
PAPER: Stamper's Select White, True Black, Weathervane (PTI).
DIES: Large Marianna Vine Outline, Large Marianna Vine Background, Small Marianna Vine Outline, Small Marianna Vine Background (Poppystamps); Stitched Circle STAX Die-Namics (My Favorite Things).
OTHER: Watercolor Stripes stencil (Altenew).
Thanks for stopping by...hope to see you in the gallery!  ~Wanda
