I am thrilled to do a challenge "in the day of" the challenge...that's a big deal for me! When I saw these colors, I immediately thought of using a new Penny Black die that would work with a Scripture verse. A few months ago, I won the entire Stamp Simply spring release. Wow! I was thrilled and have been using them on some cards that I make duplicates of (like the Graceful Still Life card I made). I have been coloring them and adding different sentiments and Scripture verses on them. I've needed to build my stash and get some cards in the mail.
Anyway, I used this pretty new Penny Black die and used the Mini MISTI to stamp the verse. Then I trimmed it to the right size, and I adhered the Pool Party to peek out from behind the die. I matted that with Lost Lagoon (my substitution for Emerald Envy), and I adhered it to my card base. I added silver rhinestones and then "perked up" the little petals and leaves of the die. I passed on dessert.
Thanks so much for taking a closer look at my card, and thank you, Barbara, for a beautiful color selection. I hope all my U. S. friends are having a beautiful Fourth of July! We are so blessed to live in the United States!
