Hi, everyone! Today's Ways To Use It Challenge is 'Something old, new, borrowed, and blue'. The old part is covered by the antique copper brads which I bought when I first discovered stamping. The new is the Bible Journal stamp, 'Find Refuge'. The borrowed part is the design which was borrowed from this awesome card by Marilyn....I love the eagle with just the blue sky and no scene...very powerful with the scripture verse! The blue part is the sponged sky. My card today is a birthday card for a co-worker who loves eagles. As soon as I saw the new Bible Journaling stamp, 'Find Refuge', from Our Daily Bread designs, I knew that I had to use the 'On Eagles' Wings' along with it. The scripture was stamped on a white panel which was cut out with the ODBD Custom Pierced Rectangles Dies; the clouds were sponged over a template cut out with the ODBD Custom Clouds and Raindrops Dies; the eagle was fussy cut, colored, then popped up with foam tape over the rustic burlap-type ribbon. Three metal brads were added as a subtle embellishment without taking the attention off of the scripture and eagle. Thanks so much for looking! Have a very blessed day!

This is beautiful Angella - I like that burlap ribbon with the brads - and your bird is colored so nicely.

Angie, your card is beautiful. I love the eagle and the scripture. A Bible journaling stamp that I don't remember seeing, I will have to check it out. Have a great day. Hugs.

Outstanding! Love the verse and the eagle on the cloudy sky background. I still have some of those brads, too. Well done with your card. It's awesome. TFS
