Hello and welcome back... Before I get to my card today, I wanted to say thanks to everyone who has been kind enough to leave comments and for your visits too!  Starting a new blog project isn't easy.  But I'm about to make it harder. For the past few months, I've been slowly moving away from FB other than for my daily bible study at 8am MT.  I check the family page and a select few others that really mean something to me, but for the most part, I've not been on as I have in the past.  I hope you will understand.  This decision was not made likely. I've been praying on the matter for some time now.  You can find me on IG at instagram.com/evabussom    Anywho on to today's project.


I love this stamp set from Simon Says Stamp  - Everything together. It's a fabulous stamp with some great sentiments. Like most of my stamp collection, two years later I'm just now getting around to using it. lol.  I used many ink pads from Altenew to get that fabulous color in the background.  I love rainbows. Kinda miss them being in the south, you just don't see them as often, as we did when we lived up north.  The black ink is Obsidian Black from Altenew as well.

Here are the colors I used in the background. From top to bottom: Red Cosmos, Orange Cream, Citrus Burst, Bamboo, Forest Glades, Aqualicious, and Deep Iris.    



Well thats it for today. I hope you will leave a comment of what you think. 
May the Lord shine his grace down on you! Amen

Freshly Made Sketches #411


Hello everyone.. I'm back with another challenge submission.
FMS has a cute sketch by Kim this week!


My card is all about being subtle, with the focus on Friendship. 
Let's talk about how I created it.


I began by adding a strip of masking paper about an inch across and ran it the width of my card.
Then with my ink from the Rock Collection, I stamped once and removed the mask and stamped again using the remaining ink, giving a vellum layer effect.  This is a one layer card.


Here are the products that I've used on today's card.
Starting with Mega Greetings in Limestone Ink. Then I grabbed Mini Atlas for the sentiment Friend and Mini Hello for the leaves and dot floral. I finally got my hands on the Obsidian Black Ink from Altenew; I've gotta say it is pretty fabulous.. giving me a clean stamped image. While it's intention is for watercolor it can be your everyday ink, for beautiful black ink. I also used Pink Pearl and Sea Glass for the other images.

Until next time
