Faith Art Day 15 – Give

Ruth Cooper

Hi Angels!

Between last night’s barn & tonight’s mason jar, I may have to design a country styled scripture mini album. Hmmm…..

Today’s verse was part of my morning study this morning.

Give and it will be given to you – a good measure, pressed down, shaken together, overflowing, will be given into your lap. For whatever measure you measure out will be measured back to you. Luke 6:38 TLV

I used Honey Bee Stamps Mason Jar Vase die set to create this card with some scraps.

Maybe we should all look for a way to give a little bit more this week and brighten someone’s day.

Blessings!

Faith Art Day 14 – More Valuable Than Birds

Ruth Cooper

Hi Angels!

I hope you had a wonderful Mother’s Day Weekend!

I got a special project finished today and just squeezed in this Faithdex card to finish up the day. So it went like this:

A. I looked to see what bases I already had cut. It was a toss up between the gingham & woodgrain.

B. The woodgrain reminded me I had put together a Lawn Fawn barn diecut.

C. Search on Bible Gateway for an appropriate verse for a barn. Yep, not kidding, I knew there were a couple of different verses on storehouses.

D. Create the following card:

Consider the ravens. They do not sow or reap, they have no storeroom or barn, yet God feeds them. How much more valuable you are than birds! Luke 12:24 TLV

Easy peasy, especially after I found a couple of small bird dies.

I hope you have a fabulous week ahead!

Blessings!

Faith Art Day 13 – Worth More Than Rubies

Ruth Cooper

Hi Angels!

For Mother’s Day Weekend I am posting some of Proverbs 31 and tonight I created this Faithdex card.

Who can find a woman of valor? For her worth is far above rubies. The heart of her husband safely trusts in her and he will have no lack of gain. Proverbs 31:10-11

I had a few Saturday projects going so I grabbed some pretty Prima paper and fussy cut some of the images from the paper to add some interest to the card. I totally freehanded the writing. It’s art from the heart, not perfection.

Have a Blessed Sunday!

Faith Art Day 12 – Look Toward Heaven

Ruth Cooper

Hi Angels!

A quiet Friday at home and a simple Bible page.

Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. Colossians 3:2 TLV

We are to always be focusing on our “heavenly” home and our life with God. Seeking His will and plan for our lives.

Some simple stenciling, a die cut & lettering. As my Bible gets fuller & I try different techniques, it gets challenging to work around the extra bumps the layers create. My pages will just have additional texture.

I hope you have a fabulous weekend ahead.

Blessings!

Faith Art Day 11 – Jars of Clay Faithdex

Ruth Cooper

Hi Angels!

Whew! A bit late tonight to posting after the fun of tornado alerts. I had my faithdex laid out to assemble after returning home from an event & then just struggled to get it together. Doesn’t help the tornado sirens sounded while I was driving home. A bit nerve wracking since it’s almost impossible to see a tornado in the dark if one was coming. Talking with God instantly calms the nerves.

I reverse engineered my card, in that playing with some ephemera led to the Bible verse.

But we have this treasure in jars of clay, so that the surpassing greatness of the power may be from God and not from ourselves. 2 Corinthians 4:7

A simple Faithdex card with some ephemera & diecuts with scrap patterned paper.

Thanks for stopping by.

Blessings!

Faith Art Day 10 – He Has Made

Ruth Cooper

Hi Angels!

I started working on the next blessing card designs this evening. This smaller design is great for leaving with our restaurant & hotel tips.

The full verse for this shorter stamped version reads:

He has made everything beautiful in its time. Moreover, He has set eternity in their heart — yet without the possibility that human-kind can ever discover the work that God has done from the beginning to the end. Ecclesiastes 3:11 TLV

I used the Paper Rose Butterfly Trellis stencil and an old FSJ stamp set with some die cut butterflies. Easy & beautiful. I will probably make 3-4 more of this design.

Thanks for stopping by.

Blessings!

Faith Art Day 9 – Under His Wings

Ruth Cooper

Hi Angels!

A little stressed start to the day changed into the blessing of a changed schedule that allowed some breathing space. Then when the idea you have comes out wonderfully, it’s an extra blessing.

Today I was in Psalm 91 which is often read during trying times to remind us that God is always looking out for His children.

He will cover your with His feathers, and under His wings you will find refuge. His faithfulness is body armor and shield. Psalm 91:4 TLV

Trying to get back into working on my many journaling devotions that I have from By The Well 4 God and Creative Retreat Kits. I picked up where I left off in the BTW4G Trusting a Good God. I used a printable from His Palette More Than Sparrows, and a printable from Wizard Art Designs plus an abstract stencil that looks similar to cobblestone in the Travelers Notebook I set aside for journaling in. I kept the colors fairly monochromatic.

Thanks for stopping by.

Blessings!

Faith Art Day 8 – I Will Praise You Tag

Ruth Cooper

Hi Angels!

I have a couple of busy days so coming up with small quick pieces of art to complete my challenge can be a challenge, LOL!

Tonight’s journal tag/bookmark is based on Psalm 86:12:

I praise You, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and glorify Your Name forever. Psalm 86:12 TLV

I created a tag from some of my hand painted paper, stamped the image & sentiment from Colorado Craft Company’s My Whole Heart and Clean Heart stamp sets, added detail with a white Posca Paint pen and added some scrap ribbons to the top.

I hope your week is off to a great start!

Blessings!

Faith Art Day 7 – Faith Knows

Ruth Cooper

Hi Angels!

I hope you have had a wonderfully blessed weekend and a fabulous week ahead.

Today I chose one of my favorite quotes for my Faith Art.

Faith never knows where it is being led, but it loves and knows the One who is leading. Oswald Chambers

Created with all scraps & die cuts from the infamous Bits & Pieces box.

I also got a start on a small booklet to create in for my Faith Art Challenge.

Thanks for stopping by.

Blessings!

Faith Art Day 6 – Heart Song

Ruth Cooper

Hi Angels!

Another late night creating & then I started fussy a bit too much with placement of the elements so I just got them on the page.

Today’s verse was one of my posted verses this week & I knew I wanted to create it with a songbird.

ADONAI is my strength and my shield. My heart trusts in Him, and I was helped. Therefore my heart leaps for joy, and I will praise Him with my song. Psalm 28:7 TLV

I used His Palette Wings & Pinions printables along with some stenciling, die cuts and a bit of hymn music.

I hope you are having a wonderful weekend!

Blessings!
