Mark's Finest
I was inspired to make a tag album after
seeing this amazing one by my friend Michelle.
I stamped the lighthouse from yesterday's set called
Island Life. I stamped the shells from Silly Shells. I painted the shells
with watercolors and the big pink one has champagne paint over the
top of it.
This close up view is a little blurry but
it does kinda show the shimmer of the paint on
the shell.
I took several scriptures from the Bible about the sea and printed them on my computer.
I then stitched them to the alternating dp.
I also stamped the shells over the printed scriptures with brown ink.
This one is Revelation 5:13
This one is Nehemiah 9:6
This one is from the set Island Life - Job 9:8
Psalm 96:10-13
This shows them spread out.
I left the backs empty, so you could see the paper, but left
the opportunity to add more scriptures if I choose to.
These are the following winners of my comment challenge yesterday. They each will win a pretzel knot.
#15Designing with Debbie
#19 Elizabeth Hart
and
#21 Janis.
I have not ever heard a shark or a starfish or an octopus sing praise to God, but Revelation 5:13 says that all those creatures along with many others will all Praise Him. I love this song called Praise Him. We sang this last Sunday and it blessed me, and I hope it blesses you too. I also hope you had a great time with this month's blog hop.
What a beautiful tag album MariLynn - not only is it a stunning idea, but the whole is just so elegant. What a fabulous way to keep scriptures close to you.

What a wonderful tag album! I love how the shells flow throughout the album!
ReplyDeleteOh how I wished I had seen this last week. We are off to a 25th wedding anniversary party this weekend and this would have been a wonderful "gift" - no real gifts allowed just donations to a charity.
ReplyDeleteAmazing project! Very inspirational
ReplyDeleteMariLynn, this is a super tag album. What a great gift this would be. I do love the shimmer on the shell. Lots of thought and time put into this and I'm thinking you enjoyed every minute of this wonderful creation.

ReplyDeleteI love this project! I love how you stamped the shells over the scriptures. It looks great. And the knots on the front are wonderful! Did you tie them? I really like how that looks! You have my brain thinking now. I had instructions years ago on making those Chinese knots..... hmmm..... Maybe I'll be adding some to a project soon ;)
Blessings,
Michelle

Fantastic tag album! Love your knots!

Hi! Just wanted you to know that I am really enjoying the knots you sent me. I'll be featuring one of them on a card I'm posting this Sat, July 14th, and linking to your blog as the one who created it. Have a great day! :) Janis
ReplyDeleteOh... one more thing... would you like to sponsor one of my challenges with a prize of a couple of knots you create? I don't know if you sell them or not, but if you don't, I think people would buy them. You can email me at craftyjanis@live.com. I have accidentally deleted your emails about winning the knots. :( Smiles! :) Janis
