Isaiah 40:31

Hello and welcome.  This verse is one of my favorites and I was so thrilled to receive this stamp from a friend since it's perfect for any occasion especially just because and sympathy cards.  It took me a while to ink it up, but I'm so happy with the results.  Since the Isaiah verse is so big, I decided to make this into a slimline card.

I started out by stamping the verse (Stampabilities) in memento tuxedo black ink onto Hammermill white card stock before over-stamping an eagle (Rubber Monger) I've had in my stash for years in memento London fog ink then lightly stippling Tim Holtz stormy sky distress ink around the edges and adding faux brads.  For the card itself, I created a background by repeatedly stamping the same eagle in stormy sky distress ink before stippling chipped sapphire distress ink around the edges.  After adding the layered image panel and adding a navy ribbon, I felt the card still needed something so I pulled out a retired MFT daisy die set and die cut two full daisies from scrap navy card stock.  I then punched some garden green scraps using a retired Martha Stewart fern punch.  After assembling my flowers, I added some class-a-peel stickers to the centers.
