My Soul Finds Rest

How about some F.L.O.W.E.R.S. for the Our Daily Bread Challenge today?  Today you get to choose from a recipe - and you must use any 3 items for your creation...

F - flower stamps, L - lace, O - ODBD Stamps or ovals or O shaped embellishments, W - Watercoloring, E - Embossing (dry or heat set), R - Ribbon and S - Stitching - faux or machine. 

Crazy me, I chose to do all of them!

F - Flowers - These lovely Fushias from the From Me to You set

L - Lace along the bottom of the card

O - ODBD stamps and pearls

W - watercoloring - which I've used to color the image

E - Embossing - gold Ranger Embossing

R - Ribbon - silk tied with the Bow Easy

S - Stitching - I did some machine zig zagging around the card.

Above you can see the coloring and embossing a little bit better.  Once I used the Labels 8 nesties to cut out the image I used the nestie template to sponge inside of the image to soften the look, so it had more of an impressionistic feel, and really give it a nice match to the designer papers (Memory Box Spearmint). 

The sentiment is from the beautiful Scripture Collection 4 Set, which I stamped in Mellow Moss ink.  Such an encouraging Scripture to me.  There's no where else I can truly find rest but in God, and that He is the source of stability and strength.  I need to be reminded of this often. 

So, join us in this F.L.O.W.E.R.S Recipe Challenge this week.  For more deets see the ODBD Blog
