It's time for a new Sweet Stampin' Challenge...
September 17 - 23
Theme: Anything But a Card
Sponsor: Live and Love Crafts
I hope you'll participate!
I decided to do another page/entry in my Journaling Bible:
The procedure is really quite simple. First I used an old (repurposed) gift card to carefully smear acrylic paint (Masters Touch) a'll over the area I would be using. This helps prevent bleeding and shadowing on the backside of the page. I chose a cream color that closely matched the page itself, since I really didn't want the paint to be the focus.
After the paint was dry I stamped the lightbulb (Unity "Light Bulb Moment") with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I used an Illustrated Faith marker to draw the line that represents the cord that the light is hanging from.
When the ink had dried, I carefully attached a Sun Ray (My Favorite Things) stencil to the page and used a makeup wedge to add the Tim Holtz "Squeezed Lemonade" distressed ink to the page. Again, I allowed time for it to dry.
Finally I added a few rhinestones (Recollections) and highlighted the scripture verse that was the focus of this journal entry.
You light a lamp for me,
The Lord, my God, lights up my darkness.
Psalm 18:28
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
Love how you have done this illustration Jeanette - it is so gentle and complementary to the scripture.
