Why is it that bling of any form is so hard to capture on camera!!!?! I have used gold gel pen to add some 'sparkle' to this DP by outlining the flourishes on the main Dp and also the stamped border. I have been to every room in the house to try and get a good photo - typically it is too glarely outside at the moment...then I remember the words of wisdom from my DH...stand back and zoom in so you can use the flash - so practical!! So...here is the result of that advice...should of thought of that an hour ago - sigh!!!
I have also added some corners sent in a RAK from the 'House of Smethers' and they have gold on them as well, the Bible verse is done on the computer. I wish I could say that I whipped this card up for this particular challenge, but the truth is, I took the easy way out finished a UFO (unfinished object) card I had made ages ago and was never totally happy with it, it was too 'flat' - so a big THANK YOU Julia for this challenge, it just added what was missing - now I am happy with it!!
What do you think - I appreciate your comments...thanks for looking!!?

Linda~ I love to see scripture on cards, and especially love the fonts you choose. This is a lovely card and very meaningful too. Oh that Lolly man and his photographic expertise! Give him some goodies!

Such gorgeous paper to go with this scripture! I must admit I am in agreement - it surely is the House of Smether's -- Pat is amazing in her energy for both work and RAK's - if I could do 1/10 - no - make that 1 /100 of the things she does - well - I'd feel good!!
