Welcome
Today is the start of a new challenge over at Word Art Wednesday, and our wonderful sponsor is
Taylored Expressions, who are giving an awesome $30 gift voucher to the winner!!
I started this card with some pale green cardstock, and part of a sheet from a calendar page. The calendar is published by a local (New Zealand) craft firm, and each month's page can be torn off, and used for papercrafts. It's fabulous quality paper, and I love using them.
I printed the scripture panel, designed by Karen M and available free on the Word Art Wednesday Challenge page, die cut it, and brushed on ink before removing the die.
This was mounted, partially offset, over a tan panel that I had layered some gold ribbon around.
I finished the inside with a snippet of the design paper used on the outside.
I am liking this to:
Very elegant in the soft neutral colours and the pop of gold to draw the eye.

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, I love the papers you've chosen. And that little touch of shine with the ribbon is perfect for the background. Thanks for joining us at A Place To Start. Hugs, María.
ReplyDeleteWell done.
ReplyDeleteYour card is elegant, Maxine! I like the green ink bordering the Scripture to echo the cardstock base. The scrolled font and gold ribbon give the elegance to the card front.

Somehow this gives me the feeling that someone is clearing and laid an old piece of paper beneath a text; looks random, but fits beautiful too! Hugs, Gerrina
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful card Maxine! I love that you used a sheet form a calendar page....what I love is how this calendar is design to be used for paper crafting, how cool is that?!! The scripture is highlighted and draws the eye in with the green inking. Love the gold ribbon too. A beautifully design card for sure! Hugs, Brenda
