Oh my gosh what beautiful products on that site - you know I just have to order some stuff ! What impressed me the most was the candles - specifically the frosted white with patterns. http://www.thymes.com/Category.aspx?nodeid=57131
So I decided that the best chance I'd get to get a frosted look on a card would be vellum. Bad news was I don't have a lot of experience with vellum....and even though I practiced on scrap paper....I had to throw away many of my tries (smiles). Praises to our Heavenly Father; I decided to take a spiritual approach to the messages used.
On this one I stamped the scripture directly on the left front of the card, then I just drew the green lines onto the vellum using a Copics marker since I didn't have a stamp that would give that effect seen on this candle:
Wow, no stamp could compare to the fronds you drew. This is simply elegant. (I have that stamp, so this one's going into my faves - thanks for the inspiration!)

So, so, pretty. Love the color choice and great job with the palm fronds! I think your vellum treatment works so well.
great job with the challenge
