This card was inspired by the front of my church bulletin from last Sunday. I thought it made a nice soothing sympathy card.
My original intent was to use versamark as a watermark, but did you know that it does NOT show up on white paper? So I ended up embossing with clear ep to get the images to show up on the naturals white.
Each panel is also sponged around the edges.

What a wonderful paneled layout and love those colors. Yep, that embossing will surely bring out the stamps and yours did just that. Great job Quiltzi!

A really beautiful quietly elegant card....I'm afraid our church bulletins don't inspire me for card making...can I come visit your church? It would be a long trip from Northern Ireland!
Blessings on you. Joyce

The thumbnail for this card is deceptively bland...opened it and just said "WOW!" What striking simplicity...not at all plain but quite powerful and peaceful all at once. Kinda like the Father's love, no? Absolutely wonderful card...my words do it no justice. TFS Diane.
