I started this card with this little sketch in my head, wanting to use the Psalm 63:3-4 Plain Jane. I stamped the verse onto a Tagged Rectangle die cut, then matted with the Rounded Scallop Frame die cut in crumb cake, adding some sponging and liquid pearls. The flowers are stamped with the blooms from Hope Blooms, then cut with the Floral Circles Die Set and then hand cut along the lines of the blooms to make them fringe-y. The leaves are stamped with the Making a Statement leaves and cut out with the Loopy Blooms dies. I layered it all together and topped with a Twitterpated button from SU! i used the same pack of buttons, threaded on a length of linen thread across my panel and finished off with some baja breeze seam binding ribbon.
