This is my card for this weekÂ’s cc478. Karen is our hostess and she chose real red, old olive and daffodil delight. Dessert option is embossing on white.
My card is using some new goodies that I received recently from Verve Stamps. The flower is from the “poppy birthday” set and the sentiment is a “plain jane stamp” –Psalm 121:1-2. This scripture is so real to me right now.
I stamped the flower in black ink on real red cardstock and cut with the matching die for this set.
On the sentiment panel I did some generational background stamping with one of the sets smaller poppies.
The card layout is from an old Viva la Verve sketch. I used Julee TilmanÂ’s card as my inspiration. See her card here.
My bg embossing is using the Cuttlebug birds and swirls folder. The dsp is from the SU “quatrefancy specialty” collection. My other yellow panel was embossed with the SU “fancy fan” embossing folder.
I used the MFT blueprints 3 for my bow to complete my card.
Hope you can play along with us this week. You may be our next cc fave of the week and your card will be featured on our Pinterest board. See the board here.

An inspirational verse on a very bright and beautiful card! I love the way you've given just a hint of the flowers as a background on the verse, to echo the beautiful red flower. Really lovely!

What a great combination of patterns and textures here - I really studied the photo and kept discovering them! Beautiful panel background for the scripture.
