The My Mind's Eye paper I used is definately my favorite from the new collection. I knew I wanted to pair it with the intense teal paper and when I saw the quote, I knew it was perfect. The quote is spelled out with the Times New Roman Font and placed in the Harmony Rectangle wood handle. I like mixing the font sizes. I think with more words I would have gone another size smaller on some words. The word Faith was accented with an ochre colored ink.The flowers are chipboard that were painted with acrylic paint. I mixed the colors to work with the paper. I wasn't really thrilled with how blah they were looking. I tried polka dots, but that was the wrong way to go. After thinking about it for a while, I sponged darker shades of ink over all the chipboard pieces and that finally gave them the depth I was wanting to achieve.
Check out what Laurie, Cindy, and Michelle are wowing you with today! thanks for stopping by!

girl--I am loving what you are doing with those fonts. Another fantabulous creation (love that paper too!)
Love that bold dp as the backdrop to your fabulously created sentiment Kim! I have such a hard time with bold, vibrant colors and you make it look so easy...like it should be common sense to put it together like that? I don't have that particular gift! This is inspiring!! WOW!
How beautiful! Love the chipboard!! (And ditto everything Tosh said - you have a gift!)
