Jeremiah 6:16 Layout

Our son took this photo

of the Penmaker while they were out hiking around Tappan Lake. Since he took it with his phone the quality isn't the best, but I just had to scrap it.

I love the look of the

path with the sun filtering through the leaves. When I saw this, I thought of Jeremiah 6:16, which is one of my husband's favorite Bible verses.

I started out with Tim

Coffey papers from the K & Company Fall 12" x 12" pad. I added gesso, molding paste with stencils and sprays... and I hated it! I ripped it all off of the black chipboard base and started over using just the plan paper. It was just to beautiful to cover up.

On top of the two layers

of TC papers, I began adding Kaisercraft's Miss Empire. Now I'm telling you again, friends, this collection is great for masculine projects (which is about all I've used it for so far). I put on a few Prima Mechanicals and a couple scraps of burlap.

The frame, clocks and

gears were all fussy cut from Miss Empire. Here I teamed up a couple of metal gears from Spare Parts and Idea-ology with the paper ones...

and an Idea-ology metal

compass with one of the clocks. I love the mix!

The leaves were also fussy 

cut, but from the Tim Coffey paper. Incorporated with them is some spanish moss. I couldn't get over how real those leaves look especially with a little shaping.

Timeless Type Masculine Birthday Card

I pulled out my 

well-used 8x8 paper pad of DCWV Timeless Type and created a masculine birthday card to send to a missionary who will be celebrating his ninetieth + birthday near the end of the month.

The copper metal pieces

are from Idea-ology, Prima and Momenta. The Tin Pin is from the Farmhouse collection by October Afternoon. The flowers are Petaloo and are teamed with Martha Stewart punched oak leaves. The Distressed Ink I used is Frayed Burlap.

Thanks for stopping by!
