Praying for You- Two Challenges

Hi Stampers! 
I wanted to create a card for this week’s ColourQ CQC76 challenge (see http://colourq.blogspot.com ) using the
wonderful Stamping411 SSC195 Sketch (http://www.stamping411.blogspot.com ). 

 I hope you will be able to take the time to visit
their websites and see all of the great Design Team
projects along with all of the other entries-
they are so inspiring!









To create this card:
Ink the floral image from Nature Walk with Early Espresso and double stamp onto Whisper White cardstock.  Color the flowers with a Daffodil Delight marker and the leaves with an Old Olive marker. Stamp the birdcage with Early Espresso over the flowers.  Use the Color Spritzer tool with the Early Espresso marker and sponge the edges.  Mount onto Early Espresso. 
Stamp the background stamp from Flores Suaves with Early Espresso onto Whisper White cardstock.  Run through the Big Shot with the Vintage Wallpaper EF and sponge with Early Espresso and Old Olive.  Spray with Frost White Shimmer Paint and mount onto Early Espresso cardstock.
Use the Big Shot with the Framed Tulips EF and emboss a piece of Designer Paper (retired Kiwi Kiss).  Use the Sandpaper Block to lightly sand the tulips.
Assemble the card, attach the 5/8” Early Espresso Satin Ribbon and add the embellishment and sentiment.
Stamp Sets:  Nature Walk, Flores Suaves, Thoughts and Prayers MDS Brush Stamp Set
Ink: Early Espresso, Old Olive, SU! Markers- Daffodil Delight, Early Espresso and Old Olive
Cardstock:  Early Espresso, Whisper White, retired Kiwi Kiss DSP
Accessories:  Big Shot, Framed Tulips and Vintage Wallpaper EF, 1”, 1 ¼”, 1 3/8” Circle and Scallop Circle Punches, 5/8” Early Espresso Satin Ribbon, Vintage Brad, Color Spritzer Tool, Sponge Daubers
Thanks again for stopping by and I hope you have a blessed week!
