FUN New Challenge at Word Art Wednesday

Ready for the chance to WIN a fabulous prize?  Well, if you're ready for that as well as some great inspiration and a free digital scripture (optional to use) among other things, then I really hope you'll pop over HERE to Word Art Wednesday to play along in this challenge.  Our AWESOME sponsor for this challenge is the wonderful Penguin Palace.  If you're not familiar with them yet, you'll want to take a peek at their ADORABLE stamps, dies and products.  They're located in Canada for those of you who happen to live up in 'The Great White North".  You will just adore these super sweet stamps.  Since I don't yet own any, I chose to use the FREE scripture word art that you can find on the Word Art Wednesday Blog.
I used basic white cardstock for my base and layered it with a pretty pink patterned paper from the Craft Consortium 6x6 Ink Drops: Rose Paper Pad that I pressure embossed with an Altenew Organic Linen Embossing Folder.  I ran a length of a wide vintage white lace across my card to help POP the white.  The frame and journalling spot were rubbed with Ocean Blue and Raspberry Oxide Inks.
I used some glitter white, hot pink and turquoise Baker's Twine to create a pretty bow.  I attached some pretty pink and turquoise Double Head Stamens and I topped the bow with a handmade paper flower.  The finishing touch was adding two coordinating stick pins from my stash.  I love using lots of layers and adding various textures and elements to my cards.  That's why I took an otherwise very basic card and added a few extra touches to give it more texture and personality.  BTW....thank you to my friend, Dottie, for printing the scripture and mailing it to me; as I don't have a printer anymore.
I hope you're having FUN this week creating and sharing cards.  I really do hope that you will come and share ALL your cards with us at Word Art Wednesday.  Anything Goes/Family Friendly as always and a FABULOUS prize up for grabs from Penguin Palace.  I look forward to seeing you out there in blogland and especially at Word Art Wednesday.

I'm sharing my card in the following:


Can You Handle The Pressure - Anything Goes/Twist of (Optional) Stars - I used an Altenew embossing folder called Organic Linen on the piece of pink patterne3d paper.

Blessings,
Karen
