Paper Players Challenge
The current sketch challenge for The Paper Players was a great one that I couldn't pass up. The scalloped border and the scalloped circle dies are from Papertrey Ink. The echinacea floral and the sentiment are from Creative Worship Stamps.
The base panel was a leftover that I decided would be a perfect background for this sweet echinacea image.
I smooshed Dusty Concord and Shaded Lilac distress inks over some Bristol Smooth Surface paper then stenciled some dots and stamped some music and script stamps in black. The flower was stamped with Versafine Clair Nocturne pigment ink then clear embossed. I used an aquapainter brush to pick up distress ink colors from my glass mat. I finally opened my new Posca white pen and I'm in love! My gelly roll white ink pen just never wanted to work well for me, so I'll see how Posca will perform.

Tic Tac Toe
A dear couple from church is getting married today and this is their card I created using Into the Blooms: Roses dies from Papertrey Ink. I cut all the flowers and leaves from Bristol Smooth Surface paper then color blended with brushes, spritzed with water then spritzed with Raspberry Fizz and Pinefeather inks. The sentiment was gold embossed so that led to accenting with some gold gems. I'm entering this into the Tic Tac Toe Challenge using the middle vertical options of die cuts, embossing and layers.
For the background, I used a 3D embossing folder - Chocolate Flowers - by Altenew. A tip that is helpful for a deeper and more detailed embossing result is to mist the paper on both sides. Wipe any excess water off and then run it through the Big Shot. The scalloped oval background was popped up with foam tape.
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great weekend! ~Wanda

Patient Echinacea
Good Wednesday morning! I got happy mail yesterday from Creative Worship Stamps! They have been sold out of the Patient Echinacea Bundle for awhile and it recently became available. I love the fun, hand drawn look of this set and it's a fun one to color! I made two cards with similar backgrounds. I started with designer paper from an old 12x12" Vintage Shabby pad by Tim Holtz.
second card uses the Damask Pattern stencil with Frayed Burlap distress ink over the patterned paper.I smooshed distress ink onto my glass mat and spritzed with water. I then colored the images using an aquapainter brush. The clipboard was a leftover scrap that I had swiped using distress inks (not sure what colors I used as it was weeks ago that I made it).
Thanks so much for stopping by! ~Wanda

Sealed
Yesterday's sermon at church was about the seal of the Holy Spirit described in the first chapter of Ephesians. That led me to do a quick Bible journaling page this morning. The envelope and seal are from The Greetery's Signed & Sealed stamp/die set. The florals are from Papertrey Ink's Thank You Florals stamp/die set.

Bible Journaling - Bee Gracious
Another Bible journaling page...this time highlighting Proverbs 16:24. I started with older, hardly ever used stencils from the July 2023 Surprise Box and from the Grunge Alphabet stencils at Papertrey Ink. I used Mowed Lawn, Mustard Seed, Black Soot, Tea Dye, Frayed Burlap, Wild Honey distress inks. The "BEE" word was stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink using the Typewriter Keys Caps Alpha set from Creative Worship Stamps. You can get this set free with a $75 order through the end of April!
Happy stamping! ~Wanda
