This is my new prayer journal. I got the notebook at Office Max on clearance and the paper (bo bunny) on clearance at my lss. The stamps are clear dollar stamps - love this bug...use it all the time. They have some great Christian stamps. I colored the image with copics and prismacolor silver. The "Pray without ceasing" I did in word.
What better day to post it than the anniversary of the greatest gift ever given, the gift of eternal life when Jesus died for mankind's sins.

More Doodlefactory Blox Invites

I used the same product for both of these pictures. I had them out, so why not? I used wild wasabi, baha breeze and chocolate chip cardstock. The dp is wild wasabi, baha breeze and chocolate chip. I added ribbon, flowers and brads. The stamp is Blox, the pig, from doodlefactory. Isn't he cute? Prepare to see a little more of him - I have about a dozen stamped and colored, just waiting to be used on more invites.

New Starving Artist Stamps




These actually aren't newly released, but are new to me! I'm hosting family supper club at my church this month. What better way to get people to come than to invite them to "come pig out"? Right? I used Blox, the cute little pig, with Basic Grey Lemonade, Purely Pomegranite and Baha Breeze. The oval and the "label 10" are from nestabilities. I also added a few brads and ribbon.
This card is a get well card for my boss' husband. He is having hernia surgery. The inside says "Hope you're feeling squirrelly again soon". I really thought about adding "Sorry about your nuts". My boss would find it hilarious, but I'm not so sure about the patient, so I opted to leave it off. I used Cosmo Cricket Hello Sunshine with my fave, Wild Wasabi and a lemony yellow of unknown origin. The squirrel and the tree are from Doodlefactory's "Into the Woods".

SFYTT

I'm now finished with my dinner invites. This layout is based on the SFYTT. It was a lot of fun. I rarely have a card that doesn't have a stamp as the main feature, but this paper is amazing. You can't tell, but the black flower is shiney, as are the small circles. The pitcher is embossed, so it has a sheen to it as well.

A little late


It's been forever since I've done a sketch challenge at splitcoast! So, I thought I'd try one and get another one of my dinner party invites done. Well, I logged on and accidently did last week's instead of this week's. Oh, well. It was fun anyway! I used the porcelain basic grey again, with mellow moss, pirouette pink, chocolate chip and white. I embossed the flatware with silver this time and added a ribbon with wine glass charm.

Another SFYTT

Another SFYTT. I know - same stamps - SU's Dinner Party and $1 sentiment, but I'm having a dinner party later this month, so two birds with one stone and all that jazz. I used so saffron as the base, layered with Basic Grey Urban Prairie. I used a sheer green ribbon and cut the circles with the cuttlebug. Really a pretty simple straightforward card, just lots of layers and pretty DP.

SFYTT

This is for the February 6 SFYTT at http://iheart2stamp.com/ I used mellow moss for the card base layered with chocolate chip, pirouette pink and basic grey porcelain dp. I used my cuttlebug to cut the circles, ovals and label behind the "you're invited". I used some of the stickers from the basic grey collection and some flowers with dew drop to accent. The silverware is Dinner Party from SU stamped with mellow moss. I inked the edges of the oval a little with creamy caramel. The sentiment is from a $1 set and is stamped with chocolate chip.
