thanks for dinner!

This card is for 3 challenges! The first challenge is for the Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge, MMSC22, wait until you see what Priscilla and the DT have for you this week. Check out everything going on there! More on that later.....
Once I had the sketch I wanted to use the StampTV color challenge, STVCC33, from Theresa. She chose Fresh Asparagus, (olive), Sweet Corn, (yellow), and Soft sand, (kraft). Next, I thought why not incorporate the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge, SSCC7, by Kristine. The scripture she chose is "the Lord reigns, let the earth rejoice; let the oceans be glad", Psalm 97:1. The Psalms are so beautiful. Kristine's challenge is to make a card that shows the earth rejoicing. I think my flowerful card does just that!
Here is what I used:
card stock: kraft, so saffron, old olive (SU)
dp: lime rickey (basic gray) from my STV Eclectic Summer kit
ink: so saffron, old olive (SU)
stamp sets: a year of flowers, a charmed life by Melanie Muenchinger (GKD)
other: flower punch (SU)

Lori, your card is beautiful and certainly does depicts the challenge of the earth rejoicing. I am a fellow Michigander and a former teacher. Your picture looked so familiar to me then I remembered that I've seen you on StampTV-MI. We could meet for lunch. :-)I am eager to see more of your designs at SSCC.

Thanks for playing along with us at SSCC.
