Fun Play with a Distressed Finish

Featuring We Are 3 Digital - Spring Letter Collection and Be-Attitudes Sentiments

" Though it is a glorious looking day here in Houston...my prayers go out to my fellow Texans who were hit with devastating weather this weekend. I pray you know no matter how it looks...we pray God will show himself faithful to your cries and needs at this time."  Be Comforted...Be Blessed ... know God loves and cares for you...

Hello Fellow Crafters,

I am happy to share with you on this beautiful Sunday here in Texas a special card I designed with a distressed look using We Are 3 Digital Papers and Sentiments -Featuring We Are 3 Digital Spring Letter Collection and Be-Attitudes Sentiments . 

I invite you to come join our fun group on the We Are 3 Digital Shop Facebook page HERE.







I first started by printing my Spring Letter Collection design sheets the sizes I wanted.  What I love about using digital papers. you can shrink or choose to crop a specific area or even print the whole design in a smaller version. I chose to shrink and print 2 inch and 1 1/2 inch squares for the right side of my card design.


The way I gave my card the distressed look is by using the edge of the scissors. They sell a specific tool but I haven't bought it. I also pulled and tore little sections here and there...all according to my taste. 


On making my ribbon design I love using multiple textures and colors of ribbon.
*Special Tidbit*
There is so much you can do with  digital images like sizing and merging sentiments/images onto design paper.  I use Microsoft Word to print and merge any paper, sentiment or images for my design styles. Here is one link that got me started...hope it helps you look into playing with digital images.

I hope you enjoyed your visit.  Until next time...be Comforted...be Blessed...be Joyful    **God loves you more than you can imagine**

Digital Burlap Elegance


"Have you felt like the world lately seems to be overflowing with loud voices of discord and actions of violence. We can make a positive difference for our future...for our children's future...for our children's children's future. With God all things are possible and I will rejoice in Him. ---I stand in faith firmly--that
Throughout My Day, In Creativity, In my Walks Alone, As I share an Innocent Smile. I invite my Heavenly Father God & Creator to fill and overflow my being, encourage and strengthen my soul for his purpose...for My Hearts desire is to be used to make a difference..if it be just one at a time as a butterfly gently flutters to each flower, let it start with me. "

Hello Fellow Crafters,

Sharing with you today a fun and easy card I made using We Are 3 digital papers and sentiments available HERE in the Miss Daisy Stamps Shop which carries several fabulous Designers digital images. Pop on over and join the Facebook Page HERE.

                                Holiday Wishes Collection
                       
                            Thoughtful Sentiments Collection

Pastel Burlap Collection



It was fun making this card sometimes it is the easiest thing to do by adding multiple layers of borders using your border punches, dies or going old school using your fancy edged scissors to give your card an elegant look. I added a strip I cut with the musical notes design paper to give the fancy border a pop next to the beautiful sold color of the turquoise-Pale Burlap Collection wrapped the edge with ribbon.  Then as my main feature I merged* the We Are 3 Thoughtful Sentiment onto the turquoise burlap design paper.

Fun with Digital Burlap Paper and More...

Pastel Burlap Collection, Miss Daisy Collection and
We Are 3 Sentiments -  Let Us Be Collection and Courage Collection

Hello Fellow Crafters,

"In these times lately...I  have been finding it is becoming hard to watch people not stay true to the morals our parents once taught us...it is all being lost...thrown and tossed about in this chaotic world of increasing division in opinions and cyber-bullying...sad as it tears apart people and breaks hearts.  I pray everyday to my Heavenly Father to have mercy on me/us as we learn to see he is God in the midst of the storms of life. "
Joshua 1:9
Be Strong and Courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.

Hello Fellow Crafters,

Today I am sharing my fun project using some of the sheets from We Are 3 Digital papers - Spring Letters Collection

These are such a lovely set of papers. As you can see from my pocket card I did not put very much on it as I giggle you that follow me know I love decorating with more is more but with this pocket card design and papers they were good on their own. I did use my Anna Griffin Ribbon die and Anna Griffin edge dies- Francesa Lace and Eleanor Lace with their corresponding embossing folders.

I love making these simple pocket cards that you can easily make and add and change with your own decorative ideas. HERE is a picture TUTORIAL with on how to make this Pocket Card.

Fun creating with Farm Life Collection Papers

Featuring We Are 3 Digital - Farm Life Collection Papers & Be Attitudes Sentiments 
*****
As I was creating my card with the Be Attitude sentiment " Stand firm in the faith" a short version of the scripture 1 Corinthians 16:13 - Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be men of courage; be strong.
 It encouraged me as it soaked into my inner most being to be strong...dig my boots down deep into my faith with courage...as I have come to know God has always been at my side through my life's topsy turvy situations.  One day I am as healthy as could be and the next I'm seeing the world in slow motion. I can honestly look back and see God has been with me all along. Thank you Heavenly Father for loving me as I am.
*****************************
Being a Texas homegrown girl I had fun creating with the We Are 3 Digital  - Farm Life Collection papers and encouraging Be Attitudes Sentiments.

I used four of the sheets from this Collection.
