Mother's Day Watercolor Layout by Shelly

Hey y'all! Shelly, here!

Today I'm sharing a sweet Mother's Day layout with you!

I started with my kraft cardstock and simply added my stamped images in white ink. Once done, I used some colored pencils to add color to each stamped image. 

To finish things off, I added a few jewel drops and a white piece of cardstock where a photo can go. Simple and sweet, yeah?!...

Thanks so much for stopping by!
Enjoy your day!

Bible Journaling by Christine

I'm back at it and ready for a fresh new year in Bible Journaling - how about you!?!  I love that there are no rules in Bible Journaling, you can just create and dabble to your hearts content! For today's share I did A LOT of dabbling!  Christine joining you with a piece based on Ephesians 2:8 "For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God."

I have been watching lots of videos of talented artists drawing their own flowers and I decided to dabble in that for this project! My Black Le Pen was perfect for the doodling part!  I knew I could use my stamps from SRM (Amazing Grace & Trust in the Lord) for little flowers in combination with doodling to create a fun background.

For each style of flower that I did I used a single color from my collection of WaterColor Pencils.  I colored and then used a blending pen to spread the color and give it that pretty watercolor look.

I also wanted to play with masking on this project.  I cut a sheet the same size as my original and then folded it in half and cut out a tilted heart.  I then layed that over the top of my original and started stamping "Grace" over and over until I filled it. The word "Grace" came from the BIG Amen set. Lastly I traced my heart again using my Le Pen to make it stand out a little bit more.  I love how this ended up looking and most importantly I had a fun time making it!

Pray Card by Amber

Hello everyone! It's Amber here, today I have this fun little religious themed card to share featuring two of SRM's newest Bible Journaling stamp sets. I love how these stamps can be used to create a variety of different projects and the sentiments are perfect for mixing and matching to create different verses or expressions. Today I show you how to mix two different sentiments from two different sets to create a fun little card.  

I started with an A2 sized white card base and adhered a slightly smaller piece of patterned paper to the front. When starting this card I wasn't sure which sentiments I wanted to use so I quickly went through my stamp collection and found this cute little praying angel from Cornish Heritage Farms and decided pair it with the large "pray" sentiment from SRM's BIG Amen stamp set and the "with god all things are possible" sentiment from SRM"s Amazing Grace stamp set. I stamped the two sentiments and angel image in black ink directly onto the piece of patterned paper that covered my card base. On a separate piece of white cardstock I stamped my angel image, colored her with some Spectrum Noir markers, fussy cut her, and adhered her to my card front right over the first 

image I stamped.

For the upper half of my card I die cut another piece of patterned paper with a stitched border die, tied and wrapped some lace ribbon around it, and adhered the entire piece to my card front. I hope you enjoyed my little card today. Thanks for visiting!

2 Peter 3:18 Bible Journaling and Process Video by Christine

Hi there SRM Stickers Fans - Christine joining you today to share a new Bible Journaling piece and process video.  I can't get enough of the Watercolor Twist Pencils and Blender Pens so I used them to color in another Bible Journaling Page - this one based on 2 Peter 3:18.

All the stamping and coloring took some time but neither were difficult to do thanks to these great stamp sets!  I love the words included in the sets but I also just love the little stars and flowers perfect for coloring!  It's nice to have a variety in size and style too! 

Here's the stamp sets that I used to create this:

The Lord is My Light

Big Amen

The Lord is Kind and Merciful

Just Believe

You can check out the details behind creating it with this video!

We love seeing what you are creating - keep sharing all your beautiful Bible Journaling projects with us!

Thanks for dropping by!  Hope you have a blessed day.

Back to School Apples by Shelly

Hey y'all! Shelly, here! 

Today I'm sharing a quick and easy back to school card with you! 

You know me, I stuck with a clean and simple design. ;) I used SRM's Healthy Plans and BIG Amen clear stamps for my apples and border underneath the apples. After, I added some color to my apples by using the fine point tip of a red marker. Which I decided to do some 'sketchy lines' rather than coloring them fully in. Once finished, I added some natural twine and 'learn' to my upper corner of my card. Quick and easy, yeah?!...

Burlap Prayer Pouch by Karen

Welcome to the 2nd week of our introduction of the 2016-2017 Design Team.  Today we are sharing a project with our new design team member Karen Hunter.  Karen has been a lover of all things SRM for quite a while and we are thrilled to have her on our design team. 

Here are some thoughts from Karen in her own words: 

I have been crafting all my life.  It started with gold macaroni covered pencil holders and, thankfully, has matured since then.  After 13 years of teaching middle school and crafting on the side, I landed my dream job as a stay at home mom.  Woven in with full time mommyhood, today I diligently create scrapbooks and other projects and journals in my bible to tell her stories of faith, family, and other bits of life.  I also continue to teach here and there and share my creativity online through blogging and other social media. I enjoy time with family, improving my photography and writing skills, and generally all things crafty. Me and my husband of 21 years try to keep up with our lively 7 year old daughter in Harpers Ferry, WV. 

Today I'm showing you this adorable (and useful) little burlap bag turned "Prayer Pouch"  project. I loved sprucing up a plain burlap bag with the happy Vintage ribbon and stamps.

First, I sewed a strip of turquoise Vintage Floral Ribbon to the left side of the burlap bag (don't you love that contrast of the floral with the rough texture of the burlap?). Since I sewed right through both sides of the bag it created a narrow pocket, perfect for one or two of your favorite LePen pens. I stamped "AMEN!" with the BIG Amen Faith Stamp Set directly onto the burlap. 

Inside the right side of the pouch, I've inserted some prayer cards. I can use these to write out my prayers or as reminders of prayer requests. I stamped sentiments and stitches using the BIG Amen set and the BIG Trinity Set as well as the arrow stitch from the Lord is My Light set onto cardstock to coordinate with the ribbon colors. Even with the BIG stamps, there is plenty of space to write my prayers and notes.

To keep the cards together I grabbed a large paper clip and looped a bit of the ribbon onto one end. It just adds another fun element to this cute prayer pouch.

The pouch is great for on-the-go and can be tucked in your purse or Bible bag. You could also easily hang this next to your bed for those late-night thoughts of prayer requests and needs - write them down so your brain can rest for the night and then hit your knees in the morning to bring them before the Lord!

For this project I used:

5x7 Burlap Bag | Turquoise Vintage Floral Ribbon | cardstock | BIG Amen Stamp Set | The Lord is My Light Stamp Set | BIG Trinity Stamp Set | Le Pen 4 Piece Set - Dark
