Here's my take on this week's challenge...



Before stamping my image (ODBD's Faith set), I used a sticky note to mask off the center panel. I then stamped the image on top and rotated my paper and stamped it again on the bottom and removed the mask. I used a matching marker to gently line the top and stamped the scripture. I then cut/embossed the focal panel adding a coordinating DP scalloped oval to give a little definition. I placed a bit of lace under the panel itself as well as wrapping a scrap around the sentiment panel taking care to secure each end on the back before adding it to the scalloped background. A die flourish, mulberry roses and some coordinating paper punches add a little pizzaz. Thanks for stopping in and be sure to check out what my other Sister Sticks have for ya... Blessings...
