Challenge x3

Why kill 2 birds with one stone when you can meet 3 challenges with one card! It has been such a long time since I did a challenge card, let alone working 3 challenges into the one card - and it really worked well!

For my basic sketch I used Mojo Monday sketch 207 - yay they are back from a short vacation

For the colors I used Melon Mambo (bright pink), Basic Black and Basic Gray from the CR84FN38 color challenge. The base of the card is BB with BG cut slightly smaller and folded in half. Whisper White was used on the inside & the front to layer all the pieces on. Using discontinued DSP (sorry) from a couple different sets to get some Gray & Mambo patterns. I ran the top white piece along with the BB & BG pattern pieces through the Big Shot with the Square Lattice Textured Impressions Embossing Folder, the Melon Mambo DSP piece was also run through the Big Shot using Perfect Polka Dots TIEF and then sanded the dots to appear as white.

For the text I used a Verve stamp (scripture - Prov 3:5) and Stampin UP! Beautiful Wings embossilit die for the butterfly accents to meet challenge 107 from Stampin' Sisters in Christ, Isaiah 40:31, wings and scripture. i also put Basic Rhinestones as accents on the butterflies and some retired MM ribbon

Scripture: "They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with winds like eagles. Isaiah 40:31."

Well what do you think? Did I rock all 3 challenges or what? Inside I stamped it with a retired set, that says "praying for you" I actually had this card all done and then when I was getting ready to post, I said "ooppss I forgot the wings!" so I had to dis-assemble part of it and put my butterflies on - but here is a close-up of the scripture I took before I took it apart

Sorry about the weird text in the post - if I was better at html I could probably fix it, for some reason my "links" wont work for the 3 blogs, but now some text is linked to one of my photos - AAAHHHHH!!!!

until next time - get your fingers inky and happy stamping!
