We at cutting up at the teaparty this week and stamping with Bubble Wrap with the Technique Lovers.
I had a lovely giant paper that my Grandson, Lewis, painted for me at church a few months ago. He had my tape it up in my craft room but it feel down (washi tape can only hold so much and for so long). After it fell, he said, "Nan, you can use it on a card." So I have. I tore some of it and used in on my BAJ page and I cut some of it in strips and used it on the card. The colors of the tempura paint are so pretty - that boy is going to be an artist for sure.
I also stenciled around both creations a bit with my chicken wire stencil, used some bubble wrap to stamp a bit, and added some gold micro beads.
The bees were fussy cut and the butterfly was gray and is now green with the help of some Dylusions spray.
The card is off in the mail to Katherine. I let her know Lewis (age 4) made the base. That should make her smile.
The BAJ page is Psalms 56 - a Call for God's Protection. We all need this and Katherine needs it especially. So many great words of comfort in Psalms, I am going to be sad when I am done. I am in the 100s now (I covered up one I did previously in Psalms 56 with Lewis' paper because I didn't like it - lol).

What a blessing Lewis is getting through your loving care and talent, Nancy! I love your work and Lewis as well. This card is hopeful and imperfectly perfect. I like how the Lord works that out in us. The flutterby is stunning.

I love this even more knowing that your grandson painted it. Wow! Lewis is so talented! As are you--what a beautiful pair of BAJ page and card you've created!
