This is for today's sketch challenge and my Februaray entry for the Bible Verse Challenge...these dp's are October Afternoon's Farmhouse series and they remind me of an old quilt so I had to do some stitching. I added a small posy of flowers for the circular element of the sketch and used one edge of Spellbinders Fleur de Lis Squares as a border for the middle strip.
I've had the Martha Stewart hydrangea punches for a long time but just recently got the rounded end tool for curling the petals which helps add dimension.
It's not too late to join us for the Bible Verse Challenge which is about making one card or project per month with a Bible verse to help in memorizing! Here are the details: Bible Verse Challenge 2012

Wow - this is absolutely beautiful! Love the sweet verse of course, but your papers and flowers and stitching are wonderful. So well done. That tool helps so much when making flowers - I need to make more of them myself. Hugz!

I love Verve's scripture stamps and this one is displayed so lovely in this sketch and surrounded by all the lovely swirls and gorgeously done flowers. Great colors on this too.

Bridget, this is so lovely! What soft, soothing coloring, and it's a favorite verse, for sure! Thanks for the inspiration...I need a special sympathy card, and this jump starts me!
