Thank you for visiting again - I am humbled by the fact that so many of you choose to visit my blog regularly.
After a rather chaotic February, with very little crafting time for the last two weeks, I managed to have all Sunday in the studio and made five cards then and another yesterday - it is this latter that I am sharing today.
The base of he card is a creamy card stock, which was stamped with the flourish from the Nature Walk Set by Layer of Colors in Galaxy Gold ink by Tsukineko.
The feature panel was layered with a piece of music from a hymnal and cut with a Spellbinders Labes 14 die, then sponged with Tea Stain Distress ink.
It was over-stamped with a Scripture from the Scripture Collection 2 by Our Daily Bread Designs and embossed in copper.
After mounting this on the card, three flowers from the Nature Walk set were stamped in Whispers Orange ink and coloured with chalks and a blending pen. These then had a button stitched in the centre and were mounted using glue dots.
The band at the bottom was white card sponged with the orange ink used in the flowers. The sentiment was again embossed with copper. I then pierced two lines either side of the sentiment and stitched them with a variegated metallic thread that I had used to secure the buttons with.
The buttons were inspired by the Stamping Sisters In Christ Challenge, which was based on
Psalm 9:10 "Those who know your name will trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you."
The thought shared was that God is our unfailing security, and the challenge was to use three buttons, as representing something that holds securely.
I am linking this to the following challenges:
