This card qualifies for 2 Flourishes Challenges, the first being the Timeless Tuesday Challenge, which I always enjoy doing and the second is the Flourishes Challne for the launch of their new stamp sets...
I have really been into sponging, flowers and butterflies with my last few cards so tried to make this one a bit more masculine, starting with the colours! I added the Nestibilities which are from a RAK from the lovely Kathy (aka Wattle) and I have had fun using them...the bird is from our very own Lesley (aka Marleygo) If it wasn't for the generous hearts of stampers my supplies would be very limited and BORING - so thank you one and all!!!
I have kept this very simple, which is hard for me, but I felt that the colours were strong and I didn't want to distract from the strength and simplicity that I was aiming for - what do you think!?!?
Thank you for looking, I look forward to reading your comments!!!

Beautiful. I love that scripture. Your sponging on the bird is knockout, all perfectly framed with the gorgeous CB die cuts!
