It's here! Dare to Get Dirty Week! Yeah! This card is for Stacy and Kittie's challenges. Want to know more? Read about it HERE, and come join the fun!
This is for a dear friend of over 20 years. It's like we have grown up together. And every time I see her face, it makes my heart smile, because her faith shines through! The little fork/spoon are from the 99 Only Store (packs of 20 for 99 cents!) I tied them together with twine and made Rolled Roses to fill in my circle. Used my eBosser to give the center circle some texture, and added Martha Stewart Rose Leaves, and a small piece from a Cheery Lynn vine. The HB senti is from A Muse, and is framed with dies from Verve. The sewing is a technique I was blessed to learn (IRL) from Pat Rose, therefore, I call this stitch the “Wandering Kokirose”.
My favorite part of this is the inside, which reads “Taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the one who takes refuge in him.” Psalm 34:8 Amen!
Thanks for looking!

Oh my goodness gracious me! Pat this is wonderful and it has gone straight into My Favs. It is almost midnight here, so I will be able to play tomorrow! I can't wait to see all the things you are going to do.

Only you can take the mundane things of everyday life and turn them into something so special - having the silverware tied and dressed with roses with the kitchen style BG papers was genius!
LOVE that you used that Scripture inside - was my first thought when I read your title and now I am singing a song that includes that same verse! Hugs!

what a wonderful card for your dear friend Pat - love that silverware - I just bought some similar at the Christmas tree shop - don't know what I'll do with it but thought it was cute - now I guess I know what I can do with it!
