Guest Designer Wednesday!

Hello Friends and Welcome to my blog! :)

It has been a while since I posted since I am so busy...lol...so let's get to it...I  have a wonderful guest designer today ...Lucy Kelleher....very talented lady and she has wonderful skills that I have admired for awhile now and today she is here!! woohooo! :)  Lucy has a wonderful blog  Love 2 Create it All  ...so make sure you give her some love and check it out too! :)

So take it away Lucy! :)

So today I'm the Guest Designer over at Purplefuntastick Creations!  I was asked to create a project around a Faith Verse.  There are so many to choose from, but I was finally able to narrow it down to a verse from Jeremiah:

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.  Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you.  You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.”
- Jeremiah 29:11 - 13

I decided to create a 9 x 9 layout with my verse.  I'm going to find a frame for it to go in so that I can hang it up in my house.  Before I tell you how I made it, let me show you some pictures:







For my 9 x 9 mini layout I decided to use a paper pack from Close to My Heart called "Florentine".  I love the colors in this pack but felt they wouldn't overpower or take over the layout and the verse that I am using.  I used the zip strip from the top one of the papers for the sentiment on the lower right of the layout "remember  - the journey - then and now". 

The butterfly and the hearts come from the Florentine My Stickease Assortment. 

I cut the two ovals using the fabulous Art Philosophy Cricut cartridge:  the oval on page 42, C2, < Oval3 > cut at 4" x 7" (fit to length) and the scalloped oval from page 52, D2, < Oval4 > cut at 5 1/2" x 8" (fit to length).

I also used two stamp sets on my layout.  I used a stamp from Eclectic Edges on the right hand side of the layout and I used a stamp from Love Life to stamp the image above and below the verse.

I hope you enjoyed today's project - love reading your comments!
Thanks so much Kari of Purplefuntastik Creations!  I enjoyed creating this project as your Guest Designer.
