Hi friends,
I am sharing a layout with you today titled "Mother Mary" and I created it for the 13arts June, 2023 Challenge.
I was inspired by the colors, and the strawberries reminded me of "fruit"! Anybody ever create a piece and think they want to add more to it, but something deep in them says, "No. Just stop now."? That's what happened to me for this piece!
On a personal note, I decided to go back toward my faith, since medications and therapy for six years have not helped me. Who knows. All I know is science alone is not working, and it would be insane for me to continue on a path that just is not working. I made the decision to add faith to my medications.
Here is the mood board for June:
I used the 13arts "In Love" Collection for the background paper, layered pieces of scripture on the background, softened it with a diluted coating of white gesso, and added some modeling paste with some 13arts stencils. The butterflies on the page are from the 13arts Transparent Printed Foil "Butterfly Garden".
For Mary, I used the beautiful illustration from the "In Love" Collection. The mists I used are 13arts Ayeeda Mists - Pastel Cobalt and Chalk White mixed together.
The three flowers you see with the gold beads in the center are Prima Marketing's "Georgia Blues" flowers.
All of the chipboard pieces on my page are from 2Crafty Chipboard. The blue chipboard pieces are the 2Crafty Chipboard Pointed Doily Frames, and I embossed them with Blue Fern Studios embossing powder.
The large piece of chipboard on the left side of the page was embossed with Ranger Super Fine Detail Embossing Powder in White.
I will leave you with this:
Hail, Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
God bless you all and I hope to see you back here soon!
