New look and new purpose!

Image
I took a week from regular posting to work out a new Direction and Purpose for this blog.   Our time  is very precious and I want this blog to be time well spent for you!  I want this to be a resource for you to find  Sentiment and Bible verse downloads, art for your paper projects at no cost to you.   I have added two new pages to keep thing searchable for you; Scriptures and Sentiments ; and Images.  Click on the tab for the latest first and then scroll through for more choices.   Please grab my button and share the blessing!! I hope to be able to publish 5 scriptures a week , Monday through Friday! One of the first things I needed to do was learn a little of Photoshop Elements  at least enough to accomplish a great desire of mine - Digital Calligraphy of the Word. It isn't too bad! I hit a few snags especially with the DPI scale, but I had a light bulb moment and got the fuzzy text figured out!   So here is my first offering from Psalm 33:20.

Still taking a break but I had to share this with you!

I've been working with digitals more and more, I still love rubber stamps, don't get me wrong along with real inks and paints!  But as I have said many times, for me it is about who the card goes to and not the stuff !  Adding digitials to my craft box gives me more ability and more time to get more out! I'm going to walk you through the process of doing one card.  All of the images ages are downloadable including the final face.  Please feel free to use it, I would love for you to make 100 and mail them all out! send a link back my way if you can and no need to give me credit, I get all the credit I need from the one it really counts with!! By the way, part of my taking a little break has to do with something that I am going to start offering to you and everyone else who stops by  at no cost, so stay tuned! Back to the card First I found a paper I liked: I applied this to my publisher program Next I found my digital frame This frame is a freebie from FarFar Hill  I digitiz

Bear with the photos - New camera!!   The first card is for my Word Art Wednesday entry,  I think I've  said  this before but I always look forward to Wednesday Morning and the new scripture for the week!  Word Art Wednesday provides such an enormous resource to the Christian Cardmaking  community!  we need to remember that while we are not charged for all of this beautiful Word art, there are a group of people behind the blog that spend Hundreds of their hours, designing, posting creating marketing with sponsors.  Thier compensation is not in dollars and cents but in crowns.  Please keep these ladies in prayer, The support is needed now while the reward comes later! I used my card sketch Here is the rest of the group: This image contains my own digitized verse. The font is called Papyrus. I made all of these cards in about two hours, I pri
