Welcome
I trust you have had a wonderful New Year, and that all your resolutions will come to pass -
I have got canny in my senior years and just don't make them - that way I am not disappointed or frustrated if they don't work out.
This first challenge for the year over at Word Art Wednesday is sponsored by the wonderful company Top Flight Stamps, with a generous $25 voucher for the winner.
As soon as I saw how this scripture had been crafted, I thought of a bookmark
I had in mind to make it with a masculine slant, so once I had trimmed out the scripture, I layered it over a kraft layer cut to a slightly larger size. The top was shaped with a paper Roses tag die
I had this wee Celtic knot stamp that I embossed in copper at the bottom of the text
I also embossed the edges of that panel with copper ep.
The top was finished with some twine and chiffon ribbon
I am linking this to:
Excellent bookmark! It is perfect for a man's page marker. The Psalms are a great place to find encouragement in the bible.
ReplyDeleteStay safe. Love hugs and blessings.

Loving the copper heat embossing and I love this masculine book mark Maxine x.
ReplyDeleteThe Scripture is perfect for bookmarks. Lovely design and embossed image.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tag and scripture, lovely design and so effective...xx
ReplyDeleteHi Maxine, a superb use of the text and love the copper embossed edges you added. I don't do resolutions either, I have better chances of things sticking when change is needed, I gave up wheat after being unwell in October, over 20 years ago, on the two occasions I've tried again my tummy was not happy so I just live wheat free.... who said change must happen when we change a calendar! Have a wonderful weekend.... Megan

ReplyDeleteThis looks so elegant! And a fine boolmark; one that keeps you thinking... I do like the copper more as gold... Hugs, Gerrina
ReplyDeleteLove the simplicity of the bookmark! The Celtic knot is the perfect accent without taking away from the sediment. Thank you for sharing your creation at A Place to Start Challenge blog 😃Samantha, DT member
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of a bookmark - I will be remembering that as I have a new bookmark die - this is delightful!
ReplyDeleteWhat a brilliant New Year's resolution to make - don't make one! I think I could follow that one :) xx
