Welcome
Thank you for calling by to view my blog - your visit is appreciated.
This card is for the Word Art Wednesday challenge that starts today.
I started with a piece of background paper that was made with Ken Oliver Colourburst powders, applied through a stencil.
I printed the scripture verse and cut it with a Memory Box stitched rectangle die, elongating it as I cut. The hearts were cut from a purple snippet (with an unidentified die,) as that was one of the colours in the wedding of the couple I made this card for.
The cup was cut with an unidentified die out of an off-white snippet of recycled card, and the cup coloured with an old Whispers Sugar Loaf inkpad using the direct to paper technique. The 'steam' was liberally coated with Wink of Stella.
The sentiment (a magazine freebie) was inked with the sugar Loaf ink, and then Versamark, and clear embossed. The ribbon was some from my stash.
The inside was finished with a strip of matching washi tape.
