I used two challenges for this card: Dawn's Limited Supply Challenge to use only dp other than the card itself, and no coloring allowed. Stef's Inspiration Challenge was to choose a Book Cover for our inspiration. I chose Decorative Architectural Ironwork because I've been dying to make a rod-iron fence with my new MS fence punch, toppped with the punch outs from my EK Success fleur de lis punch. Since no coloring was allowed, everything was paper-pieced or punched from Basic Grey Ambrosia and Basic Grey Marrakech. The pearls are from the Basic Grey Opalines line. The stamps I used are from a new release from Our Daily Bread Designs, called 'Ask, Seek, Knock'.
Thanks so much for looking! Have a blessed day!

Angella, this is breathtaking. All the details you put into your cards are just outstanding! I can't stop looking at everything you did and wondering how you could come up with something this gorgeous. It just kept building and building. I love the verse for one thing and the fence, door, leaves, border punches just add to the overall theme. What a great job!!! TFS!

Thank goodness that I received a thread alert that you had posted a card, or I would have missed this beauty! OMGosh, this is stunning! Your creative use of the fleur di lis with the fence punch is genius! What a knock out card for both challenges, tsmfs!
