Fruits of the Spirit

I have been seeing some great sentiments lately and I L-O-V-E the look of mixed fonts in a sentiment. I dug through my Sweet N Sassy sets to see what combos I could make for some 4″x4″ cards. It was lots of fun and a great way to stretch my stamps!

All of my cards use the fruits from the Fruit of the Spirit Stamp Set. Then I used Be a Flamingo, Give Thanks, Skinny Caps Alpha, and Bitty Minnie Alpha for my Sentiments. Some watercolor splashes in the background complete the look.

Here are my samples:

I hope you are inspired!

Fun With Skinny Caps

Hello sweet friends!  Happy Friday...hope you had a good week and are ready for the weekend.  There are so many wonderful alphabet stamp sets in the Creative Worship line at the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store.  These are great for card making as well as Bible Journaling.  I've been having lots of fun with the Skinny Caps Alpha!

The beautiful flower from the Mason Jar Bouquet set was randomly embossed with Liquid Platinum EP over the Mixed Media background and water colored with Kuretake water colors.  Since I didn't want to cover the pretty flowers, a frame was cut using some rectangle dies.  Skinny Caps were white embossed to spell YOU and part of a sentiment from the Treasured set was embossed on vellum to finish the sentiment.  The great thing about Alphas is you can create just the right sentiment for your card!

Exclamations, a brand new set designed by Krista Hamrick, was just added to the Sweet 'n Sassy Stamps Store!  I used the Exclamations set along with Skinny Caps Alpha for a Bible Journaling page.

I just love that little tea cup from the new set!  The color swirl background was watercolored with Neocolor 2 crayons and white gesso was painted on through a stencil to look like steam.  The images were colored with a combination of Neocolor 2 crayons, Pitt Artist Pens, and Prismacolor Pencils.  Other sets used to complete the page include Outline Alpha, His Book, and All Your Heart.

People try to quench the thirsting of their soul with many things the world has to offer.  As the woman at the well discovered, only Jesus can quench our thirst and feed our hunger in a way that satisfies.  The Samaritan woman left her water jug at the well and went away filled!

Thanks so much for stopping by!
