The Angels Shouted For Joy

This week at Word Art Wednesday, we have two BEAUTIFUL pieces of free word art for you from the lovely Daydream Designs.  One is a wonderful piece of scripture from the Book of Job, and the other is a coordinating sentiment from their Shine Like Stars Collection.  I made two projects for this week's post - a card using the scripture, and a coordinating tag using the sentiment. I'm giving this as a gift, and will tuck the tag into the card when I give it so that the tag can be used as a book mark.  It's always nice to make a matching tag to tuck inside a hand-made card.  That way, you're surprising the recipient with a sweet little gift when you send a card.  The many lovely sets at Daydream Designs make this super easy to do, and lots of fun too.

 

Some of you have commented about my detailed descriptions of the supplies I use to create my projects.  Please know that, for me, this is very easy.  I'm very aware of the brands I use, and I feel that it's only appropriate to acknowledge the companies whose products I use to create.  I enjoy listing them, and helping people find the things I've used.  For my card, I started with a Small Lunch Bag Kraft Notecard from the Kraft Outlet.  Next, I took a piece of black Bazzill cardstock and machine stitched on an October Afternoon patterned paper from their 5 & Dime collection, as well as some vintage sheet music. I liked how the stars and music perfectly fit with the scripture.  I die-cut an angel and stamped it in Tim Holtz Barn Door Red ink using my Papertrey Ink ide-cut and stamps.  I glittered her wings to make them sparkle, and tucked her behind the sheet of vellum on which my scripture is printed.  I used an October Afternoon red music border and a Papertrey Ink star border (cut from Prairie Point Junction wool felt) for the bottom, as well as a seam binding bow, glittered button, and May Arts jute.

The coordinating tag is made from all the same supplies as listed above. In addition, I used a Grunge Prim Shipping Tag as my base, and I also used some chipboard stars that I painted with acrylic paint and glittered.

I'm sharing my projects in the following challenges this week:
