Trust in the Lord


Hi Friends!

This card was designed with a verse sentiment from Words of Encouragement (Stamp Simply) along with a floral image from Anna Griffin (sorry, not sure of the name of this one, it was part of a kit from HSN years ago).

I love to participate with online challenges and am linking to the Festive Friday #063 “International Day of Friendship” and I incorporated the pink, green, flower, ribbon and embossing into the design.

I am also linking up to the A Place To Start “July- Flowers” Challenge along with the Time Out #165 “Days Gone By” Challenge.  This floral image seems vintage to me :-)

If you have not had chance to check out the above challenge sites yet, I hope you will do so- gorgeous inspiration from all!

To create this card:

Ink the sentiment from Words of Encouragement with Versafine™ Onyx Black ink, stamp onto vanilla cardstock, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Die cut with a rectangle die, mount onto blackberry cardstock, trim close to the edge.
Watercolor the Anna Griffin image using water-based markers and use Vintage Tea Distress Ink to “age” the paper.

Trim the panel, mount onto blackberry cardstock.

Add the lace and satin ribbon, wrapping the ends behind the panel.  Mount the entire panel onto a white card base.

Use a clear glitter pen to add shimmer to the flower petals and an extra fine white paint pen to add highlights to the flower centers.

Finish off the card with a few pearls.

  1. I think it is not just the flower that looks vintage Julie...to me the whole card is vintage-the background with the distress ink works well with this look plus the lace gives it a great vintage feel too! I do love how you coloured the image-the colour really contrasts with the rest of the card making it the star! Thanks for joining Time Out x

  4. This is such a beautiful card!! Love the vintage look of the papers and your water coloured flowers are stunning in that deep plum colour. The ribbon and lace certainly add to the ‘old-time’ feel too. It’s perfect for our challenge and I’m so glad you shared it with us at TIME OUT!
