I made this for several challenges. First, I wanted to honor this week's Featured Stamper, my sweet friend Pat Smethers. She has a gorgeous gallery and is the sweetest person I know.... so I wanted to honor her during her week. I loosely cased this card: ~Faith~ by patsmethers at Splitcoaststampers
I changed the diagonal bg and made mine a nine patch quilt bg so it qualifies for the Shabby Tearoom challenge this week to use lots of squares. It also is for this month's Dirty theme... vintage. Today's TSC challenge is DP and distressing. My distressing is distress ink sponging.... hope that counts. It's been a while since I got to play this one!
DP: SEI Claire, Anna Griffin, The Paper Studio
CS: Mellow Moss
Accessories: Spellbinders Label 3 (sentiment on AG DP)
Nellies Multi Frames, Prima Flowers, MS Punch, SB Symbology die, sewing machine
Thanks for looking!

Grace, your beautiful card brought tears to my eyes. This verse is one I can hear in that "still, small voice" when my heart is not where it needs to be! What a beautiful creation- to be wrapped in a quilt and covered in God's Word! Nothing could be sweeter!
Sister, your DP's are delish, and your stitching is gorgeous! I love how your verse is framed in that delicate garden! Thank you so much for adding this Grace, your work is always incredible, like your friendship to me! I will never forget the day we met, and smile still! Hugs to you sweet friend! LYMI XOXOXO
