Happy Sunday - this has been a horrible week for many people in the USA with weather tragedies and violence. Please say a prayer that they may find refuge both physically and emotionally. Thank you for joining us for another challenge based on scripture at Stampin' Sisters in Christ!
This week Kris brought us our challenge based on Psalm 91:4a - to read her devotion please stop by our home page, you will not be disappointed!

"He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge."
Such a wonderful verse for which I chose an image of a swan. Swans seem so graceful and seem to exude peace and serenity. That is what God wants for us - to feel His arms (wings) around us so we feel engulfed totally in His love.
I stamped the swan on white, then masked it so I could sponge in the water and the sky. I used the same color blue just sponged more layers on the water. I used a Copic gray color to highlight the wings a bit on the swan and some around the shadow in the water. The weeds were an afterthought - stamped and cut them out. The background was done with the sponge and a smaller rectangle to use as a mask to make it look layered. Works well when you do not have a shade of cardstock that coordinates well.
The challenge this week is; "Things with Wings (Images of birds if you have one, otherwise... angels, b-flies, other things with wings)"
This week's sponsor is Digi Doodle Shop.

I personally love the swan ... AND the weeds. I think that'd be a great challenge sometime--to use WEEDS in your project *wink* Love the whole card and yes the swan is so peaceful... perfect sentiment! Have a lovely week Miesje *Ü*
Hey, I thought those were graceful cattails...they don't resemble weeds to me. Whatever they are, they look so well placed next to the water. Great job on the challenge, and sure would love to feel that peace all the time. Something to pray for, I think!!
