Big Buckle Blue and Brown Bard... (I mean CARD!)

I got a little carried away on my B's!!! Anyway... I want to show you this Big Buckle card that I made using all Paper Makeup stamps. I stamped the verse and sponged it while it was still in the nestie... I LOVE that look. Then I adhered it to the front. I then stamped the cross on the inside with versamark and used chalks over it to make it show up. For the strap, I stamped the vine and leaf images also from Paper Makeup. I punched the flowers and sponged and layered them. I used the antique copper looking brads and held them all together and arranged them in a pleasing manner on the card and here is my creation. I usually do much "busier" and BRIGHTER cards... so this was a change for me and I LOVE it! I really love the verse and the colors came out nice too! I have you all have a wonderful day and count your blessings.!
