Good morning everyone!
Today's challenge is an inspiration challenge!!
ODBD stamps used: Life is a Gift (New release)
ODBD dies used: Vintage Labels & Vintage Flourish Pattern
This is the inspiration photo for this challenge.
Well, I went for the bouquet and pretty colors of this inspiration photo for this challenge.
The new Queen Anne's Lace wild flower bouquet was perfect. I used some white Liquid Applique on the Queen Anne's Lace and some Liquid Pearls-Coral on the little red blossoms to give this card extra texture and dimension.
The frame is a coral color and I used white pigment ink to sponge on the die before removing it to give the outside stitches a bit more definition. I dyed the ribbon to match.

When I see wild flowers anywhere, I always thank God for the beauty He has created for us to enjoy! They all have different colors, shapes and smells. It amazes me when I think of the thousands of flowers, the thousands of scents and variety of color and shape of each flower. Same with the trees, they are all so different and smell different...what an awesome God we serve! And to think that He loves me, He knows me by name. One of my favorite Psalms is 139, especially 139:13-16
For You formed my inward parts; You covered me in my mother's womb. I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made; marvelous are Your works, and that my soul knows very well. My frame was not hidden from You, when I was made in secret, and skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they were all written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them.
Thanks for coming by to visit today!
