Happy Tuesday!

It's time for a new Shining the Light Challenge at Our Daily Bread Designs!

This week's challenge is:
Border it- use your dies and punches to make a special border on one, two or all sides

Here is my take on the challenge this week...

This beautiful fence image is from the "Missing You" Stamp Set.  I colored it with Prismacolor Pencils and mineral spirits.  The sentiment is also from the set pictured here:

Either Bible verse would be perfect for the inside of the card too.

For my border, I used the Classic Petals and Classic Decorative Inserts Four from Spellbinders to create this.

Paper: Whisper White (Neenah), So Saffron, Mocha Devine, Rain Forest

    The green and saffron are such a wonderful colour combination - and for me, blue flowers are one of the first signs that spring is coming in. I love your gorgeous border and that little wooden button - a perfect rustic look with the ribbon.
    Dioxazine purple - oh my, I don't think I've seen that in writing since I used to work in distribution of fine art supplies. Seeing that in your list of supplies was a real trip down memory lane.

    Kathy,
    Such intricacies in your card, the coloring is amazing. delphinium , lilies and what might the other be. The picket fence tells it's own story of days gone by when people stopped to say hii.
    Thank you for joining us at Word Art Wednesday.
