Updated: - Elphine House Australia Challenge - Pearls & Lace

Hi there!

It's time for a new challenge at Elphine House Australia! This week the challenge is to use pearls and lace! Oh, how easy! I'm always using pearls and lace! Here's what I came up with for the challenge this week!




This is a brand new stamp from Elphine House Australia called, "Carrie Swan Princess". How sweet and precious is she! I am never disappointed with Elisabeth Bell, her illustrations are so adorable and amazing! After I finished my card, I realized that swans are supposed to have orange beaks! Oh well, my swan is a little unique lol!

For supplies used:

Stamps:  Carrie Swan Princess (Elphine House Australia)
Paper: Dusty Durango (SU), Solar White (Neenah), The Mariposa Stack (DCWV)
Ink:  Onyx Black (Versafine)
Accessories:  Labels 20 (Spellbinders), lace (Jo-Anns), ribbon (Michaels), flower (Recollections), adhesive pearls & Nestibling (Want2Scrap), Diamond Stickles (Ranger), white gel pen, Prismacolor Pencil, mineral spirits.


Hope you can join us for the Pearls & Lace Challenge at EHA!

Blessings!

Kathy

Oops!  I forgot to include this in the Stampin Sisters in Christ's latest challenge #129, "Things with Wings"!  (My sticky note stuck for this stuck to a different project, lol!)  This is the Bible Verse with the challenge.

Psalm 91:4a "He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge."

As I was reading this verse, I thought about feathers and how delicate they can be to the touch and yet how strong they are when being used to fly.  It reminds me of how gentle God can be with us giving us peace and refuge, and yet how strong He truly is.  What a blessing God is to me and I'm so thankful He is in my life!  Blessings!  Kathy
