Flower Soft and Our Daily Bread designs blog hop!

Need some inspirational new ideas for using Flower Soft? Come join us in a special blog hop with the Flower Soft & Our Daily Bread designs Teams! You know I love hanging out with these talented ladies....! If you arrived here from Grace's blog, you're on the right track. If you just happened to stop by, you may want to start from the Our Daily Bread designs Blog to make sure you don't miss a thing... because prizes are involved!! Flower Soft and Our Daily Bread will each be selecting a winner for a $20 prize package!

I pulled out this scenic image from the set called Quiet Waters. The image is watercolored with reinkers, and I used Marigold and Burnt Sienna Flower Soft on the trees. I stamped the Wood background on my card panel, and sponged around the edges. The verse is from the Porch set.

I colored my seam binding ribbon with Touch Twin Markers - I'll share how to do that in a separate tutorial on Saturday, so be sure to stop back if you're interested.

As you make your way through the hop make sure you comment on each and every post. There will be prize winners chosen randomly among the blogs.The blog hop ends on August 30th. The prize winners will be announced on The Flower Soft blog and Our Daily Bread Blog on August 31st.

From here you'll be hopping to Marie's blog, CraftEMarie! Thanks for joining us today!

Thanks for stopping by!

    I love this card! The wood frame looks so real for that beautiful autumn forest scene! I love your watercoloring with the reinkers. The colors are so bold...very realistic. The Flower Soft colors, Marigold and Burnt Siena are perfect and add so much dimension to this card. Your hand colored seam binding is the perfect color to accompany the scene...as do the brads.

    I love this Scripture! I see His wonders everywhere...but love to see it most in people! Thank you for sharing!
