Stampin Sisters In Christ-Love U

Good morning, I am sharing my card for this weeks Stampin Sisters In Christ challenge.  This weeks verse is 2 Timothy 1:7 For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. This weeks challenge is to try something that you might have not tried before now, examples... a new technique, a new color combo, a new style (CAS if you are a Layered stamper, or reversed).  I tried ghosting, I have never tried it before and did not get it to turn out the way I wanted it to.  I do not think my card stock was glossy enough.  The "love U" is stamped on the  ghosted part, it is hard to see.  be sure to head over to SCS and learn how to do it for yourself, it is very pretty and adds that little extra detail.....I luv the details!  I have used stamps from Verve's latest release,get yours today!  I played along with Stampin Royalty's sketch and Moxie Fab inspiration photo.  I was drawn to the colors, design, and the light fixture over the table, so I created  the pom pom bow with the gem.  Hope you have a happy day...enjoy!

Happy Sunday friends, I am sharing my card for this weeks Stampin Sisters In Christ.  The scripture this week is Colossians 3:16 Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord.  To read this weeks devotional head over to SSIC.  The challenge is for you to use music in some form; sheet music, music notes, instruments, or singing.  I have used sheet music paper, I adore sheet music paper...I cannot sing, but I luv to sing praise in church!  I have used the new stamp set from Verve called Making A Statement...this is one of my favorite sets this month!  be sure to head over to Verve and get your Anniversary sets....they are fabby!  We have had a huge rain storm the last several hours that has moved through, we so desperately need rain.  I hope your day is fully blessed, be encouraged and share a song of praise with someone in need....enjoy!
