Vintage Verse

Photo Details

Poster: bfinlay

This is for today's sketch challenge and also for the monthly Bible Verse challenge. I had a hard time with this one, ink everywhere it wasn't supposed to go, and maybe thats why I don't feel happy with the end result - in fact, that explains the positioning of the flowers! Everything has been sponged with Ranger Distress Frayed Burlap ink. The verse was computer generated and that panel is popped up. I used the script bg and then punched out the flowers, adding brads. The card base was sponged at the edges with black ink.

I love your monochromatic, vintage look, Barb. I especially love the flowers made from the script background. This is beautiful.

I thought the flowers looked pretty good just where they are - even if they weren't covering something up they'd still look perfect there :D. In fact, they are what really caught my eye first on this card.

Beautiful! And so like our lives...not very "neat" so God has to rearrange us a bit. The flowers are placed perfectly...a wonderful card!

Anything w/ graphic 45 papers is a winner in my book. I love how you've let the paper do the work for you. This is really a neat card.

Wonderful card ~ wonderful verse! I really like the vintage look you've achieved and I sooooooo understand the flowers...I find myself with lots of 'creative opportunities' too!

TFS!

Blessings,
