Creative Knockouts Challenge #467 - Make it Funny!

Hello crafty friends!

It's another beautiful week ahead - seriously, hasn't this August weather just been incredible?  I don't know about you, but I don't want summer to end this year!

It's time for a new challenge over at Creative Knockouts Challenge #467. 

Our theme this week is "Make it Funny” and our sponsor is the amazing “Pattie's Creations”. I chose to work with a stamp set called "Pickle Jar”

Here is what I created:

I printed off the image and watercolored, then re-traced all the lines with a thin sharpie to make it more defined. I created the sentiment on my computer and printed off. Easy peasy!

I hope to see you at the challenge! :)

Until next time,

Jess

Rise and Shine Bible Journal Page with Joy Clair

Hello beautiful friends!

I have a brand new bible journaling page to share with you today for Joy Clair Stamps.  For this page I am using the Rise and Shine Stamp set from the Color By Faith Series.

Here is my complete page:

I had a lot of fun watercoloring this page and even added some pearlescent paint!

I hope you enjoy it and are inspired to go and do some faith journaling. 

Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon.

God's Promises Bible Journal Page with Joy Clair

Hello friends!

Today I have something a bit different to share with you. I have played around with Bible Journaling in the past - I just haven't been brave enough to share it with you!  Well, that changes today as I am sharing a page I created using a stamp set called "God's Promises" by Joy Clair Stamps! I hope you like it.

I started by turning to Genesis in my journaling bible and read over the verses.  Then, after some quiet contemplation, I started stamping.

  

I really love how the clouds turned out!  I used some pearlescent watercolors to add a wash of colour to the page. I wanted the rainbow to be a bit brighter, so I used some glitter markers.

 

Here is the final page in it's entirety!




As I finished the page, I realized I had some inspiration to make a card too!  Bright sunshine and an uplifting sentiment. Perfect!



Thanks for stopping by today!  I hope you enjoyed my card and bible journal entry. See you again soon!
