I stamped the Psalm 143:8 scripture from the brand new Verve stamp set called Good Work along with the wheat image for a silhouette effect over the subtle patterned paper. I tucked a Hearts & Swirls Frame Die under the main sentiment panel then embellished with wooden and RUSTIC deer head.  What a beautiful challenge to work with today!  Hope you'll try it out, too!


Thanks so much for stopping by the stage!

Stacey! I LOVE THIS CARD! The mix of patterns is just fabulous!!!!!

Jen said...

Can I just say W-O-W!? i love how you stamped the scripture and wheat and truly made it the focal point. And all of the other details that play in the rustic winter theme are THERE but not in your face. Very nicely done.
Thanks for sharing.

Mimi said...

I love so many parts of this card: the silver backing, the buck, the tree paper. I love the way the wheat looks... I would bit have thought to include it but it adds to the rustic feel!
