Birds on a Wire Card



This is the last day for
Sweet 'n Sassy March Virtual Stamp Day Challenge #5: Feathers

SNSMAR13VSD5



I die cut a "birds on wire square card" ... and added color to a panel with Gelatos.







I used three different colors and swiped with a baby wipe to blend.

I scribbled alongside the edges and wiped to finish.
 

I am also submitting this to

Emphasize the Negative Challenge in the Moxie Fab World

and the

Ombre Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.

~CASE Study~




I recently started participating in the CASE Study challenges~lots of inspiration there!



This week, CASE Study Challenge #104,  we are to case one of the design team members.



I CASEd Clare's 4th Card Here.




One thing I love about Clare's work, is when she puts some surprise texture in her cards.



I love that!


I didn't add a paper ruffle, but I used soft colors and kept the strings for an unexpected "something" tucked behind the sentiment panel.




I also added crimping to 1/3 of the label.







My colors are inspired by 







Since I'm using Verve Words of Wisdom,


I am entering this in the Card Carnival.

~Limited Edition~




The best thing about a hand-crafted card or project,



is that it's LIMITED EDITION~



just like you and me!



No two are alike, and we can praise God for that!



Hard as we try to be like the rest...


our quirkiness, fingerprints, and "personal flair" stand true and scream loud...


"I'M UNIQUE!"









See that glitter?


I had it in my stash for awhile.


I pulled out my Hero Arts stamps for the Hero Arts August Sketch Challenge.






I'm also submitting this to Simon Says Stamp:Let's Play Bingo





I used a corner punch, glitter on Scor-Tape and stamped blooms.


Have a blessed day~BE YOU!

~A Great Calm~




I was able to make another card for the Virtual Stamp Day~Challenge #3.








The Verse is Mark 4:39.


Here is the sketch:




I played with my Gelatos last night...I've wanted them since viewing







I embossed this gorgeous scene (won last month~thank you Sweet 'n Sassy!)
with glossy white.


I tried a grittier embossing powder~Antique white~ first, but it trapped the color~do over!

 After it cooled I gelatoed all over it.


Don't get scared~it looks like you used crayons (when you were three)

until you add

a few swoops of a baby wipe or water.



It's a neat coloring experience!


Blessings~
