Hi friends! Julee here with the first
Mojo Monday sketch of a new month and that means it's contest week! For every 50 entries, we give away a
Verve set of your choice to a random participant. So play often to increase your chances! There's even some new Verve on the horizon later this month to choose from! Hooray!
For today's card I had a much crisper look in mind, but sometimes art is messy, you know? I got all of the layers done and was going to smudge just a smidge of white paint around the edges of the smoky slate layer before I glued it to the card base. But when I went to open the paint, the entire bottle dumped out on the bottom half of the card, my desk and my pants. Doh! I hurried and wiped it off with baby wipes as best as I could, giving a white washed effect, then sprinkled some glitter on the dryng paint and distessed the edges of my layers before finishing up.
Guess I'm kind of telling you the story backwards today. LOL Anyhow, the flowers are from the
Great Friend set, and I stamped them on white cardstock, colored with prismacolors and gamsol and fussy cut. The scripture is the
Psalm 19:14 Plain Jane and I stamped the leaves from
Great Friend around the panel in pumice stone, then colored with prismacolor pencils. That smoky slate layer is embossed with the Chicken Wire folder and then I wrapped some silver thread around the panel several times, tied the bows and finished off with a little rhinestone embellishment.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope you have a wonderful start to your week!
