Here is my take on the Challenge:

I just love pink and green, and I really love this Bazzill's "Fussy" color.  It's so bright and cheery!

I stamped the verse in black at first, but it looked too "harsh" for the colors and embellishments I used.  So, I ended up using "Snow" Pearl Embossing Powder by Recollections.  It's hard to see in the photo, but it's a pretty, subtle shade and goes nicely with the card. 

I also used my new purchase from Really Reasonable Ribbon, this beautiful wrinkled ribbon.  When I won the candy for them from True's Blog, I just had to purchase some more things that I have wanted.  :-D  Their ribbon is beautiful, and really is super reasonable!!!

Here are the ingredients I used:

Stamps: Scripture Collection 1 (Lam. 3:21-23) (Our Daily Bread Designs)

Papers: Fussy (Bazzills), Solar White (Neenah), Springtime Vintage DSP (SU), Watercolor Bouquet (K&Co)

Ink:  VersaMark, Spanish Olive (VersaMagic)

Accessories: Snow Pearl Embossing Powder (Recollections), adhesive pearls and swirls (Rec.), Pearl Gems  (K&Co), rhinestones, flowers  (Rec. & Prima), Parisian Accents, Labels 18, Fleur de lis Squares (Spellbinders), monarch butterfly punch, medium branch punch (Martha Stewart), perfect polka dots EF (SU), Dazzling Diamonds (SU), lace & trims (Jo-Anns), piercer, charm, chain, wrinkled ribbon (Really Reasonable Ribbon).
