ABC Scripture [F], colors and SSS challenge






Good afternoon...

It's quite a rainy day and seems like we're going to have a couple days with rain...
Well, glad I'm pretty much busy "indoors" creating and working and finishing with some of the latest projects - for the classes and gifts that I promised to some friends and relatives.
:)
That's quite a few though. About 7 different themed projects(2 are "year-long" type of project/assignment) .

It has been a while and I'm happy to be"catching up" again.

It's focused on Bible Verses - 2 Kings 17:38 and Prov. 3:1) while using the colors of TCR#49. The final result is this oh-so feminine look page carrying these great words that reminds me to not FORGET about what God has for me...

The Bible Verses here are:

"Do not forget the covenant I have made with you, and do not worship other gods."
(2 Kings 17:38)

"My son, do not forget my teaching, but keep my commands in your heart..."
(Proverbs 3:1)

Supplies:
paper: CTMH, Basic Grey; button, stamp and ink: CTMH; alpha and circle chipboard: Making Memories, Darice; lacey doily: Wilton; brad and rhinestone: Recollections; accent fabric flower: Prima; punch: Martha Stewart; marker: ZIG Millennium; felt bird and big satin flower(misc.)

Thank you for visiting my blog,

ABC Scripture challenge #3 - [C] Confidence



Hi.

I'd like to share my ABC Scripture Challenge #3 [C ]. And today's {key}word is confidence.
Could not get a better fit word for the moment right now. CONFIDENCE.
To start the year and keep all sort of projects on going, the old and new ones. And feel good with what you actually have or can-do.
No matter how limited we perhaps find us in any situation or environment.
Be confident. How good it is.

Among so many verses that "carry" confidence, I chose these two to be featured in my challenge layout:

"So do not throw away your CONFIDENCE; it will be richly rewarded."
(Hebrews 10:35)

"In Him and through faith in Him we may approach God with freedom and CONFIDENCE."
(Ephesians 3:12)

Supplies:
papers(Basic Grey, CTMH, American Crafts); ink(CTMH); bird and flower die cuts(K&Co); chipboard alphabet(Momenta); marker(ZIG Memory System); ribbon(CTMH miscellaneous).

Good night,

ABC Scripture [B] and colors challenge





ABC Scripture Challenge #2/2011

http://thecolorroom.ning.com/

Today I'm sharing my 6" x 6" layout which is the ABC Scripture Challenge #2 - [B]. It is also the TCR#41 pallette challenge for The Color Room.

The keyword for the ABC Scripture layout is BIBLE (B). And for this, I've chosen two Bible verses that I find to fit perfectly in.

verse#1: "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work."
2 Timothy 16,17(NIV)

verse#2: "He shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaf also shall not wither; and whatever he does shall prosper."
Psalm 1:3 (NKJV)

The verse #1 is what I put as main words for the layout and the verse#2 is the support words. As you can see in the photos above, which shows the verse#2 as a tag, held by the main frame of verse#1(light green background).

I incorporated the 4 colors(blue, pink, purple and yellow/gold) of the TCR#41 among the mix of green,black and white. This is a wonderful color pallette and it is one of my favorites now.

Supplies:
papers - Close To My Heart(CTMH), Basic Grey
ink pad and Liquid Glass - CTMH
die cut - Martha Stewart Crafts
color spritz - Clearsnap
chipboard alpha(B) - K&Company
metal letters - Sticko
rhinestones - W2S
ribbons, trims, paper flowers - miscellaneous

Thanks for visiting my blog!

Good Morning!
This is the very first layout of my other new project for 2011 called ABC Scripture Challenge, inspired by Patter Cross. She is such a talented lady! The objective of my challenge is to create a 6" x 6" layout every 2 week following the alphabet key word and to choose a Bible Verse with this word.
So "A" this week, is for ANCHOR.

My chosen Scripture:
"God did this so that, by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled to take hold of hope set before us maybe greatly encouraged. We have this hope as an ANCHOR for the soul, firm and secure."
Hebrews 6: 18-19a

Supplies:

pearls and Liquid Glass - CTMH

12 tags of Christmas - Day { 3 }




Hi!

The tag you see above is the 3rd sampler of my "12 tags of Christmas - 2010 Edition".
Today's tag features some of my favorites:
Heat embossing(with clear embossing powder for fine details, perfect for letterings), tag base background alteration with Walnut Ink application (Antiquing Solution) + Brillance Pearlescent Ink edge chalking(combined coloring) + Smooch Spray gold effect, and the use of Perfect Pearls powder coloring. The birdie's eye and beak were "highlighted" with Liquid Glass* to give them extra dimension. The nest is a piece cut from a real wood sheet paper, it has the actual texture of wood which I find very neat for this project.

The Scripture of the day is:
"Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer."
Romans 12:12

Supplies:
ink pads and sprays(CTMH, Tsukineko, Clearsnap)
papers( Creative Imagination, Recollection, Paper Company)
Stamps (CTMH, Stampin'Up)
Rub-on( Heidi Grace Designs)

Paper Flower and leaf (Prima)
Liquid Glass ( CTMH)

Good Night!
