The blooms here are The Greetery's Botanicuts Crocus dies that I die cut from watercolor paper. Crocuses are typical Spring flowers, but I thought of them immediately pondering the verse. The are such peaceful little blooms arriving with the hope of spring and summer to come.
I had great fun watercoloring the petals and stems with Daniel Smith Watercolors. I spattered the completed flowers with Windsor and Newton White Gouache along with some of the watercolors that were used.
The blooms are layered over an oval panel that was die cut with a Spellbinder Hemstitch Oval (no longer available) that the Bible verse was stamped directly on using Versafine Clair Morning Mist ink.
The oval panel was then layered over the background panel which was embossed with a Stampin' Up embossing folder (no longer available, but any textured embossing folder would work), adding additional texture.
Card completed; I really love the outcome.
