This is a real CAS quick card from me for the ODBD challenge this week to use a sentiment as the focal point. I had a very little time at home today (we are staying at my aunt's house for ten days), and this will be just the right verse to send a friend who's husband has not made as good a recovery as they hoped from his recent heart surgery. I thought using the Penny Black grass image tied in with the idea that even though the grass withers and fades, God's Word endures forever.
5 3/4" square white base. I knew that I wanted to stamp the sentiment on clear cardstock and lay it over a pale image, so I stamped it with StazOn and cut with Labels 1. The image was stamped with Memories Soft Celery on white card, coloured lightly with pencils and the foreground and sky dusted in lightly with chalk. I attached the sentiment with brads, sponged the edges of the image panel and attached to the card base. I added a bit of piercing just for some extra interest. Sorry for such a basic card, but given the time constraints I was happy with it.
