Mixed Media Card: Keep The Faith

Hello everyone! It has been a fabulous first week of the New Year for us here and we finally got some snow 🙂 Both of my daughters, especially, are very happy!

Walking into 2017 with faith knowing God holds the future and has planned each day for us according to His will and will give us peace. Keep the faith, my friend for God walks before you and will help you step by step.

Today, I would love to share with you a happy news. Starting this month until March, I am joining STAMPlorations – Theme and Sketch Challenge Team as Guest Designer. So super excited to be part of this team!

You are invited! We would love to see your projects using the theme and/or the sketch of January challenge:

Our definition of mixed media is using stamps and ink, plus at least 2 other elements, either techniques and/or products. And here’s my mixed media card using the theme and the sketch and my new stamp set!

I used the Faith Expressions stamp set and Crisscrossed ARTplorations Stencil on my card. Techniques I used to create my card are stamping, watercoloring, stenciling, and inlaid die-cutting.

Mediums I used are Versafine Onyx Black ink pad, Tombow Dual Brush Pen, Spectrum Aqua Markers, Spectrum Noir Sparkle Clear Glitter Brush, Heidi Swap – Silk Screen, and water for watercoloring the background and painted the stamped flower.

For die-cutting I used ODBD – Snowflake Sky Dies and Double Stitched Rectangles Dies.

The Design Team share their project inspirations on STAMPlorations Blog and I hope you all can play along with us this month! By linking up your projects with this challenge, you have chances to win the prizes from STAMPlorations!
