Fruit of the Spirit



This is a work in process. I will add pages as I finish them to the above slideshow. The main product I'm using in this book is Flutter and Fly by Kristin Cronin-Barrow. This will keep the entire project uniform in color and feel. Unless stated otherwise, everything used is from that kit. The alpha for each "fruit" title is Maya's Believe Alpha.

For the "love" pages, I used part of one of the RED Heart Templates by Suzanne for the clusters of heart shapes.

For the "peace" pages, I used Carrie Stephen's bobbles which are in her Booty Surprise 2 grabbag.

For the "patience" pages, I used one of Jenn Trippetti's Glitterflies and some stick pins from Miss Mint's Blue Lavender kit.

For the "kindness" pages, I used a paper from Scrap Outside the Box's Spectrum of Love 2 kit and the string bits are from Jenn Trippetti's Strings and Things.

This only took me weeks to finish

Here's a double I agonized over. Finally ready to share it, though!

Ready for the long, varied credits?

Main background paper, orange dotted paper and neat flourish in the middle from Vintage Dreams at Little Dreamer Designs (This is a free kit by Michelle Coleman and Lori Barnhurst that you get for signing up for the newsletter!)

Pink dotted paper from Black Raspberry by Roberta D'Achille (This kit is in her clearance section. I snapped it up and Don't Bug Me. Check out the cool accordian frame in Don't Bug Me.)

Jeans tags and swirls on left side and right bottom from Casual Friday Elements by Miss Mint (I bought this for the tiny tags included but I go to this set ALL the time for embellishments.)

Vintage photo frames by Nancy Comelab

Measuring tapes by Barb Speck

Alpha for large "T" and "B" by Sarah Kendall (These were recolored and had the dye stamp effect applied to them as did all of the text, flourishes and swirls.)

Dye stamp effect from a tutorial at DigiScrapDesigner

Fonts are all Hallmark fonts other than the "iger Cub!" and "allerina!" with the wonderful standard Arial.
