My Scraplifted Card for Word Art Wednesday #292-293

Hi Everyone!

I'm excited to share my latest Word Art Wednesday design with you all today, because it's a little different from my usual.  I was really stuggling this week with my creative mojo, I just couldn't seem to come up with anything.   So, what do I do when I'm low on the creative juices and need ideas?  I scraplift!  (at least that's what I think it's called)  I have my favorite designers whom I borrow ideas from.  My designs never turn out just like theirs, but that's the point.  

For my card design this week, I scrapliftted from the talent Michelle Wooderson.  You can see the original design on her blog "Mish Mash"  She is one of my favorite designers.  I just love her relaxed yet clean style.  I often browse her blog for inspiration when I'm plumb out of ideas. 

Michelle used modeling paste on her card,  I didn't have that so I used Gesso mixed with white acrylic paint.  I love the texture this created by just spreading it onto my paper.   I think the white color is a perfect pairing under my verse which speaks of our sins not being remembered.  It just makes me think of my sins being blotted out.  

And, Yes, once again I'm  using paper and embellishment from My Minds Eye.  I'd venture say that at least 80% of my craft room supplies are My Minds Eye.  The paper is from the Vintage Charm 12x12 pack and the enamel heart and dots are also from My Minds Eye.  

I just can't seem to get enough of their product.  :) 

Now we want to see what you've created, even if you borrowed some ideas. 😉 So, please stop by the Word Art Wednesday blog to play along.  The word art is always free to use, but not required to join.  

Thank you for stopping by today, and have a wonderfully creative week. 

Blessings, 

Texture and Stars Card for Word Art Wednesday #290-291

Hi! 

I hope you all had a wonderful Independence Day!  I know that I did!  Independence Day is one of my favorite holidays.   I love celebrating the birth of our nation and all that comes along with that.  We truly are blessed!  

That leads me to this week's Word Art Wednesday Card.  I used classic Americana elements to design my card, although it's not your typical patriotic colors.  

I guess I kinda went for that vintage American look, oh, and stars upon stars. 🌟

I used a very old paper line from My Minds Eye.  I'm not sure if it's even available for purchase anymore, but it's called "Blink of an Eye".   I've kinda been hoarding this paper, it has an all-American, vintage summertime feel to it.  I embellished using some bronze star stickers from Jolee's that I purchased at Micheal's.  I added a strip of gold washi tape across the bottom and cut a piece of burlap doily to finish it off.

I think you can see the bronze and gold a little more in this picture.   I also glued a wood veneer star to one of the bronze stars, just to add a little more texture. 

As always thank you for stopping by today.  I encourage you to show us what you've got by joining in on the Word Art Wednesday Challenge.  The word art is always free to use, but not required to play along.  We have awesome sponsors and you just might win!  If you're on IG be sure to tag your creations using #wawchallenge to be featured.  

Blessings,
