For my card, I'm using two of the new July sets Our Daily Bread and The Living Bread. This is one of those cards that hardly resembles the idea I started with this morning. I woke up with a clear picture of the card I wanted. Maybe I'll get to that one another day since this definitely isn't it, lol.
The wheat cross was stamped with a combination of lt brown and palm leaf inks then the verse was stamped with evergreen pigment ink. It's attached to a slightly larger green panel and both have the edges rounded. The punched tan layer has the edges sponged. Remember those hand held ribbon punches? I remembered I have one but it took me a while to find it. When I did, I used it on a leftover strip of the dp and inserted a narrow chocolate satin ribbon through the slits. Just for fun, I twisted the ribbon before attaching it. The final card measures 4.25 x 5.5 (A2).
Thanks so much for looking! More info and links on my blog: The Write Stuff.

Well, even if it isn't what you pictured when you started, it is simply wonderful ~ so many fantastic details. Love the way you've threaded the ribbon across the bottom. Looks like some great new stamps at ODBD... Off to check out the hop...
