Scrap Tower: Scripture

WELCOME

Welcome to Scrap Tower, my little corner of the world, where I share my creativity with you.

I enjoy many forms of crafting, from paper crafting to sewing. I make custom greeting cards for family and friends. I've made unique custom cards commissioned by friends.

I am proud to have been a card maker for the organization Operation Write Home (OWH) for several years supplying 1,000+ handmade cards for our HEROES.

I continue to make cards as gifts or to sell and I am testing a few other sewing and crochet projects to sell.

My current charitable project is Sew Powerful Purse and I have sewn and donated 20+ purses in the past two years. I plan to donate 10+ purses in 2018.

I enjoy sharing my creative passion with others, including children in Sunday School and Bible School, etc.

OWH Virtual Card Making Party (VCMP) Challenge #1

Hello ! Labor Day has been a 'wash out' - it has rained almost all day. Not so good for our home town Labor Day Festival or a BBQ, but a GREAT day for card making!! I have actually been at it since Friday evening after work. My goal for the weekend - to finish off a box of cards of at least 100 cards to send to Caro. When I reached 95 sometime on Saturday, I stopped counting. I have 110 cards as of this moment.

Operation Write home hosted a Virtual Card Making Party on Saturday & Sunday. I had cards in my box that fit some of the challenges and they are cards that I have not previously posted, so I am posting them for the VCMP. I spent some time Sunday evening and today trying to make cards for the rest of the challenges in VCMP.

Challenge #1 - OWH partnered with Our Daily Bread Designs monthly challenge to create cards with Scripture or uplifting quote or sentiment. I already had this one prepared.

Matthew 19:26

This card was assembled using scraps and flowers from my stash, Jubliant Waves embossing folder by Lifestyle Crafts and All Things Are Possible stamp by Stampabilities . I did not have a brad in the right shade of yellow, so I colored a pale yellow brad with a Copics sketch marker to achieve the shade coordinating with the yellow cardstock.
