God's Work Mixed Media Card

Hello, friends! I hope you are enjoying your first few days of fall. Autumn has definitely arrived in Croatia. I love it when the sun is shining but the temps are a little on the cool side (emphasis on LITTLE :). I haven't been much online since I was in a wedding over the weekend, hosted an out of town friend, hosted some more friends, and finished our Christmas cards this year, all 140+ of them. I had very eager little helpers to get me going. :)

My card for today is mixed media inspired. I used my newest TCM Stamps, Chalkboard Faith.  I first colored the background with some Oil Pastels (or crayons would do, if you don't have the pastels), which makes this card perfect for the Moxie Fab Color Media Challenge. I then rubbed them with my fingers to blend. I used DecoArt's Modeling Paste and Want2Scrap's Bare Tree Stencil to create the tree. I let it dry for a few hours.
God-way
Because the quote lines are so close together, I stamped it twice. I cut the banner lines from one of the stamped images, and the others from the 2nd. I highlighted them with some Want2Scrap bling. The tree was decorated with paper flowers. A little bit of Twinery is added before I adhered it to the base.

Here is the stamp set I used. Have a great day!

  1. What a lovely card Nina - I have some oil pastels but have not really known how to use them - you have inspired me. Love that stamp set too!
