Autumn Colors

Welcome Autumn!  It's my favorite time of the year.  Love those breezy days and cool nights....not too hot...not too cold.  Most of all I love the beautiful colors, especially with the changing of the leaves.  God's beauty is amazing and so is He.  Join us at Twist of Faith for our weekly card challenge.  The theme is 'Autumn Colors' with the 'Twist of Faith' including a  scripture verse or quote that is encouraging, uplifting and inspiring. Milk Coffee is our sponsor this week and they are giving FIVE digi images  to our winner!   Soya is the cutest little pumpkin already enjoying the Autumn season!  I cut the pumpkin card by hand using some orange cardstock from Archivers.   Watercolor markers were used to form the shape of the card and to color the digi .

I always give my Sunday school students this message during Fall Fest.  I use to have to dig in my materials, but now Eureka stamps has it in their store.  It fits SO perfect to use with cute little Soya.  I know the children will love it, but most important get the message!

Faith Can Move Mountains

Just having a little fun in the scraproom this morning with MOJO Monday sketch #312.  Faith can move Mountains.  If only we have a little faith the size of a mustard seed. I remember taking a jar of mustard seeds to my Sunday School class in an attempt to give a visionary lesson.  I wish I would have written down their comments, but one of them still remain with me.  He said, "Wow, right now I have a little faith and when I get big I can do anything!"

God's beauty

This card was inspired by Scrapping Everyday Miracles.  I've been eyeing their sketch and trying to find the die cut to use and this morning I went straight to my stamps.  I don't use them enough so I grabbed the Hero Art Butterflies and Inches stamps.  I looked at the inks, shuck my head and gazed over at the watercolor pencils.  I just wanted to try something different and capture God's beauty.  I had update my card, because their twist is to add some string/fiber.



 

 This is how they were colored before I added on the sentiment and embellishments!

 Don't you see God's beauty?  I might do these again in fall colors as He changes the season. 

Thanks for visiting!

Good Times Series

Over at Scraps of Color, Robert Jackson is having a Good Times Relay Challenge.  You had to complete each actor before the deadline with the requested challenge to continue with the next one.  John Amos is our last actor, known on the sitcom as James Evans.  The challenge for this card was to use twine and metal.  The design was inspired by Tuesday Morning Sketches #217.

Recipe:

Bic Mark-it makers
Stampin up sentiment and punch

We started off with the mother, Florida Evans.  Challenge :  Use the sentiment "Good Times" on our project.

 This is Wilhona and Penny.  Challenge: Use bling or pearls

 The children Thelma, JJ "Kid Dynomite" and Michael.  Challenge: Square card and add a button.

 Bookman known as Buffalo Butt on the show.  Challenge:  Color the image and anything goes

It was a great relay and I enjoyed the images.  I'm still watching Good Times reruns.  It's great to see how well they have done in their careers and even those who overcame their challenges.
