Blue and Green Challenge

Hello everyone! It's time for another Stampin Sisters in Christ challenge! This week our hostess is the lovely Lisa. Lisa has chosen the Twenty Third Psalm for today's Scripture. Many of you can quote this entire Psalm because you learned it by heart, perhaps when you were young... I know I did and I'm so thankful for all the Scriptures I committed to memory when I was young because it sure is more difficult to memorize anything now!!! Anyway.. what a comforting passage this is!

"The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; you anoint my head with oil; my cup overflows. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life, and I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever." Ps. 23

Lisa's challenge is to use the colors of blue and green on your project.

I decided to just play for fun this week. I found this fabulous Sugar Nellie image as a digi HERE
and just had to have her. Her name is Grace! How could I resist? LOL!

I used the Papertake Weekly sketch for this card. I needed a birthday card so my tiny tag is stamped with a stamp from Popcorn Bear set, Birthday Hugs. I love how tiny it is... fun to just add anywhere on a card! I stamped my image with Memento Ink and colored with Copics. The base is SU! Pear Pizzazz and the designer papers are from BasicGrey Urban Prairie and Memory Box Spearmint. I used a Martha Stewart punch for the greenery and an EK Success punch for the little flourishes. Sponged everything with Crushed Olive Distress Ink. I used Spellbinders Lacy Circles and Standard Circles Small, and three different Cuttlebug folders for the embossing. The flowers are ZVA Creative. The ribbon is May Arts silk.

I had so much fun coloring up this image! I so often do more serious cards and it was fun to break out and do something different!

Our Sponsor this week is Taylored Expressions!

They are giving away this set! Wow! Can I play? :)

We want to thank them for their support and generosity!
