Hello there inky friends! Today is a JOYFUL day! Yes indeed! Today's a snow day for me and I'm enjoying my time off from school and decided to play along with a challenge. I'm joining the fun over at the Tuesday Throwdown! This week, they're featuring Joy Clair as the sponsor so I thought it would be fun to ink up a cute little stamp they shared with new friends at CHA. I wasn't able to go this year but I was surprised to find the stamp in my most recent order. It was a sweet treat as I wished I would have received one at CHA!!!
It was fun creating this colorful bookmark. I used the exclusive CHA stamp as well as a hint of the Wood Background on this tag. To color the image and the background, I lightly washed some watercolor over the cardstock. To finish the tag off, I added some sparkle washi, some twine and a little tassel.
As Joy Clair has a foundation in faith-based stamps and inspirational sayings, I explored my bible to find the perfect verse to accompany my new bookmark. I happened upon Proverbs 17:20-22. It's the perfect verse for this stamp...and a little reminder to keep joy in your heart as it is some mighty fine medicine!
I sketched up an image on my bible page, sketched over with my Micron fineliner pen then colored with watercolors. To finish off the journaling, I added a bit of gloss and sparkle to the hearts.
Beautiful Bible Journaling and your tag is so sweet!
ReplyDeleteThank you Lori. It's amazing how the JC stamps just ooze inspiration and direct me to the perfect verses! :)
