It's Metal Time at The Stamping Chef

I've really been slacking as a DT with The Stamping Chef and I hope to get busy with my coloring and card making!! Over at The Stamping Chef we have a challenge every two week and I hope you will join us. This week's challenge is metal. Wasn't really sure how I was going to do this one since I'm not much into metal but I was willing to give it a try.

The digi I chose to use is Keep Your Faith. I thought with all the destruction in Oklahoma that has occurred this week faith was a much needed ingredient to our lives. Prayers are with all of the people of Moore, Oklahoma and the surrounding area.The verse that I used on my card is one of my favorite verses and the verse that I thought a lot of people will be reciting this week: "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13.

The ingredients for this card was X Press It Blending Card, My Mind's Eye-Cheer Vellum, Bazzill, Sentiment-Flair Designs-Amazing Grace Collection, Powder Puffs Ameretto chalk, Recollections Floral Embellishments, Basic Gray rubber stamps, leaves, peach rose, butterflies, and brads from my stash.

Copics: Colorless Blender, C0, C2, C3, C5, E0000, E000, E00, E11, E13, E35, E37, E51, E53, E55, V0000, V01, V12, R0000, R14, R24, R29, Y000, Y04, Y08, Y17, YR68, YG03, YG09, YG17, G28

In the challenge this week "Metal" I used the butterflies that has metal on them, then brads on the sentiment, I colored the cross and it's chain to also look like metal. I hope you like this and come on over to The Stamping Chef and join us in the challenge "Metal."

Finally, Summer break is here and I can get back to creating more often!! I love my job at school, but it sure keeps me away from my other love of crafting...lol. So, come on back more often, and see what I'm up too.

This week's challenge from Love to Create Challenge Blog is Something for the Kids sponsored by 2 Cute Ink. I thought I would use all lavenders on my card and it was so much fun. I did use a little white to highlight a little. We could use a digi from anywhere for our cards so I used a Scrapbook Stamp Society digi by Sherri Baldy. I really hope you like it.
