He Provides ~ GIU Day 2

For my Day Two with Unity Stamps, Growing in Unity, I am sharing another one of my favorite scriptures.  This one is from Isaiah 58:11,

The Lord promises to guide you always, satisfy your needs in a difficult situation, and strengthen you, so that you will be like a well-watered garden, a spring whose waters never fail. 

For this page from my Bible Journaling, I've used Unity Stamps, He Provides by artist Angie Blom, with this beautiful flower bouquet and the shortened version of the scripture.

Today's technique is stamping on Vellum and coloring with Copic markers.

I stamped the flower image on the vellum using the Misti and carefully set it aside to dry for several hours. When I was ready to color the image, I carefully colored on the BACK of the image with the Copics.  I colored with slightly darker colors than normal so they will show through and also colored fairly quickly as the color doesn't have the paper grain to absorb into, thus they dry quickly.   It will look a little blotchy on the back but quite stunning on the front side.

                     

 Next I used DoCrafts Xcut Die Large Nesting Door Plate Die for the flowers and I stamped the sentiment with Versa Fine Clair Glamorous (Deep Pink) and die cut using Spellbinders Label 56. Next I proceeded with adding these on the page and masking them to add the background.  Once secured with book binding glue, I used my 'home made version' of the Art Impression page protector along with the Door Plate die to cover the scriptures and the vellum flowers.

For the stenciled background, I selected the Starlite Diamond slimline stencil and used Distressed Oxides Mowed Lawn and Old Paper.   I also used the edge of the page protector as a guide to add the vertical strip of washi tape.  When all the masking was removed, then I added the die cut Cross at both locations of the scripture and underscored the scripture also with a gel pen. 

I hope you enjoyed learning how this page was created.  I can't wait to do another vellum stamping and back side coloring!   Hope you'll try this technique too!

Thanks for stopping by today too, especially if you're new and from the Unity Stamps site.  I'd love for you to start following me also. Don't forget to comment for your chance to win one of the two Unity Stamp prizes.
