Happy Thursday, peeps! Time for a lovely new Inspired By challenge...I just love both of these prompts! Check out these beautiful wreaths:
And here is our optional sketch:
As I said, I do love wreaths and I was tempted to do a wreath card, but I challenged myself to do something different, so I made a wheat sheaf using an Impression Obsession die, some woodgrain DSP and some seasonal hues:
I used cardstocks in Very Vanilla, Bumblebee, Soft Succulent and Soft Suede to create my wheat, then added some gold satin ribbon and a Linen Specialty Paper tag. The sentiment, also stamped in Soft Succulent, is from a retired set called Truly Grateful. I also added some gold metallic pearls:
Wayne is stuck in Bermuda (more about that later) and he sent me this photo from his hotel patio:
Not too shabby! Enjoy your day and be blessed!
"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God." 2 Corinthians 1:3-4
