Lovely Yellow

I was checking out the challenge blogs this morning and came across the beautiful yellow inspiration for Challenge #11 at Jay Gee's Nook. I was totally inspired (which hasn't happened in a while) so before I lost it I got to work making a sunshine-y card.

I did some emboss resist with clear embossing powder and Mustard Seed and Antique Linen Distress ink.
Hero Arts Stamps: La Letter, Daisy Label and Flowing Flowers and Leaves. Martha Stewart Butterfly punch.

I was at Stamp Fever on Saturday and picked up a new Cosmo Cricket Clementine Mini Deck. I used it to make another emboss resist card. This card seems perfect for the Play Date Cafe challenge to make a girly card using Mint, Coral and Ivory.

The background is the same Flowing Flowers and Leaves and the sentiment is from Daisy Labels. The butterfly is from the Antique Engravings clear set and the main image is from Unity- my dear from the Provencial Collection. I added a bit of bling...so out of character for me...must be the heat we've been having. Summer finally showed up in the OC.

from Paul's message to the church at Ephesus:

~ Ephesians 1:15-18 ~

"Ever since I first heard of your strong faith in the Lord Jesus

and your love for God's people everywhere,

I have not stopped thanking God for you.

I pray for you constantly,

asking God, the glorious Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,

to give you spiritual wisdom and insight

so that you might grow in your knowledge of God.

I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light 

so that you can understand the confident hope 

He has give to those He called-

His holy people who are His rich and glorious inheritance."

Thanks for your visit!

blessings,
