Inspired Stamps

This week we were to create a shape card using Journal Shapes, Fruitful Flourishes or Scenic View. I choose Scenic View. I used Stampin Up inks to water color the image on water color paper. The flowers are from my stash. I love being in the mountains so this scene is special to me. Head over to Inspired Blog to see the other DT's amazing projects.

Inspired Stamps

Welcome to this weeks Inspired Stamps showcase. We are showcasing some of the $3.99 Scripture verses. I choose Proverbs 3:5. I am going through some diffucult health issues right now. It is nothing major just trying to get medications straightened out. I am leaning on this verse to get me through this trial. My first card is one the I created the background with alcohol inks. I first stamped flourishes from Fruitful Flourishes with Versamark ink than clear embossed them.

This second card, I used the stamp to create the background. I stamped the saying then sprayed with mists to add color.

My last one is done with mists than the saying was stamped and embossed. It is hard to read and think I would redo with black ink.
