Isn’t this Vintage Flourish Pattern die gorgeous!!

Stamping on a cream colored kraft cardstock and sponging with the same Seedless Preserves Distress ink turned out beautiful! {pieces were sponged while still in the die for a stenciled look}

I also added Beautiful Borders and Fancy Foliage, a must have in my books!

My second card, not quite as fancy, but I love how it turned out using the beautiful Chalkboard Collection paper! I just love the delicacy of the Fancy Label Borders!

To highlight the word in the verse, I carefully inked it from the top with red just to the word “Loved”, wiped off the red ink from the top then inked in black the rest of the verse, huffing on it before stamping.

Dawn, my goodness I'm in awe of your first card, still trying to take in every beautiful detail. Just when I start to scroll down I see something new that stops me. The colors, wonderful dies and beautiful design just blows me away. And your second has it's own charm - so beautiful and regal in the black and all-white design. Beautifully done my friend!! Blessings,
Audrey

Hi Dawn-

These are 2 beautiful cards. I really love the first card. Purple is my favorite color, and it reminds me of the majesty of our Lord.

The 2nd card is so delicate looking. I love the die-cuts, the ribbon, the embossing and most of all the message!

Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful, meaningful art!

His,
Traci
