I love this Lattice die for cards with scripture or sentiments as it really highlights the message I want to use. Used some matching paper here, outlined the die (outside and inside) with some gold leafing, made a few flowers so I could match my color. I love making these flowers, they make great embellishments. I like this layout so much I will probably use it for a set of cards.
This card will be going to the Church bookstore as I got a message they have run out and need some more. So nice to be using both hands to stamp and assemble.
Kush this is gorgeous. I love that stamp and how I missed getting that b4 it retired I'll never know! I love how you centered the scripture on the sb die. I love the colors of the paper you used. The gold leaves look amazing along with those beautiful flowers.
I'm so glad your feeling better and able to use both hands again. We don't realize just how much we use a part of our body until we can't use it.
What a blessing for your church bookstore that they have you to make these beautiful cards for them. Isn't it wonderful to create but when you create for the Master it's the best it can be.

Oh my goodness, This is outstanding, Kush!! Good to see you are already using that new set you just had to have with such abandon. These papers and that great SB lattice die, (first time I have seen it, you enabler, you) combined with the gold CL flourishes and pastel punched flowers. give a beautiful soft look to your card. You won't be able to make enough cards to supply your church with - they will be an instant sell out!! Bless your heart!
