Isaiah 40:31


A favorite verse! The stamp with the eagle and verse has no name, sorry. It is mounted (using the tip from a few posts back) on a cut-out piece of a carry-out container. Love this - didnt use a jillion dots !!! The clouds don't show very well in the picture.

The background stamp is a huge stamp..so here is another

TIP: lay your stamp with its picture down and the rubber facing up..ink your stamp with the rubber facing up... lay your cardstock on top and then use your brayer and roll it over the cardstock (press down on one corner so your card doesnt move while running the brayer over it). You will get a clean stamped image with no blank spots. Much easier than turning your large stamp over and pressing it down on the cardstock, especially when the stamp is this big....you probably already knew this... but if not, try it !!

Stamps: eagle/verse unknown, Trees Backgrounder from Sonlight Impressions
Paper: SU Whisper White, Mellow Moss, Cranberry Crisp (wish that was still around)
Ink: Memento black, Old Olive, Border Blue
Eagle is done with SU watercolor crayons
Embellishment: SU Cranberry Crisp ribbon
Technique: Matting

Have a blessed day, :)

Wow, this card is spectacular. Thanks for listing the tip on the large stamp. I have heard it before, but I forget to do it. It is nice to remind people of the options that are out there.

I love this Linda! It's my all time favorite verse! Is the stamp from ODB? Beautiful card!

I dont know - it may have come from a place called Biblical Impressions - they went out of business awhile ago...it only has a number on the wood mount. I will pop over to ODB tonight and see if they have it.
thanks, Linda
