Hello, dear friends. Like many of you, I have far too many stamps and supplies. I admit that this is the first time I've used this stamp...yes, hanging my head in shame! Haha! But I finally used it, and now it's no longer feeling unloved. I had fun masking and stamping a border of these flowers around the Scripture verse. This is about as "fall-like" as I can get here in sunny and warm South Florida - ha! I decided that a black mat looked nice and ended up rounding two of the corners to add some interest. The best part of making this card was coloring, and I need to color more...my favorite part of making cards. Stamping and coloring has to be relaxing for me. Otherwise, it's no fun. So today, I am going to work on another card - and color!
Thank you taking a closer look, and I hope you have a wonderful rest of the week! Sending you all big hugs, dear friends!
This is beautiful! I agree with you. Coloring is the most fun. If I could color and the rest of the card would magically come together for me I would create a LOT more than I do! Beautiful scripture and the rounded corners is fun!

Beautiful card Cheryl, I can see why so many have added it to their favorites. Amazing coloring as usual and I love how you have the scripture framed in by your beautiful blooms. It is definitely feeling a bit fall today in TN.

Cheryl, df, this is gorgeous!!! I've spent no time in my craft room and so little time in the gallery, I had to see if you created anything to include among my list. I love the black mat which really helped this image pop and of course the subtle shading around the flowers added such depth. Beautiful sentiment!!! I wish you warmth and joy this Thanksgiving, and always!
