Our TSC challenge this week was to make a blue, brown and gold card, use one punch and do some doodling.
Well, I used ODBD stamp set and stamped the sentiment with Versamark and heat embossed with gold ep. I did this on Bordering blue cs from SU. I matted with brown cs and punched with a corner punch. I ran the Bordering blue cs base through the CB dotted ef. I added gold ribbon and then brown dotted swiss ribbon. I topped off by stamping the praying hand with Versamark onto white cs and heat embossed with gold ep. I cut out the hands and pop dotted them onto the ribbon.
I doodled a dotted line around the sentiment with a brown marker and added four square gold brads.
What do you think?

Lesley- so beautiful! I love this sentiment, and the truth behind it! (You and Judy have inspired me to get off my butt too!) I love these colors together, and need to get back on the bus for our challenges. Love how you have outlined the hands with gold too, and your doodling. You always meet the challenge, and this one is especially nice. tfs sistah!

DIVINE Lesley - love this card and such a great challenge card. That sentiment is so-o-o powerful and you have displayed it so perfectly, along with the praying hands!! Although it is made for a masculine card - it would bless anyone to get it!! Thanks for sharing!

Holy MOley! Not only is this the perfect scentiment, you incorporated the color requirements so beautifully! I especially love the CB folder you chose for this creation. I've been drawn to CuttleBugs lately; Did I mention I was given a CB????? I'm off to play but thanks for sharing this beauty!
