If you came to my blog from DEB's BLOG then you are right on track, if not please start at the ODBD Blog and hop back to me :) !!!





I have the pleasure of showing of an older Set called Flourishes Christian Symbols. As you can tell these images are perfect for heat embossing!!! Matter of fact I'll be giving this card to our pastor this Sunday :) .



My card came together fairly quickly...the main image was heat embossed with Silver EP onto the Spellbinder Curved Rectangle Die. The DP is from the MME Cowboy Collection....the rest of my card was embellished with some PTI Kraft Stitched Ribbon, Brown Scrapper's Floss, a Button and some Silver Pearls (retired).

Now it's time to hop on over to my sweet friend BETTY's BLOG!!!

Just in case you get lost completely....here is the entire link hop order ~ LisaToshDeb-Me-BettyConnieChrisLoriGrace and the ODBD Blog!!!

Thank you so much for taking the time to hop on by here...I'll be back tomorrow with a new card :) !!!  See you then,

                                                            Hugs, ~Silke~

What a charming card! Plaid is always a winner - and this is both masculine yet not heavy. The ribbon adds the depth to anchor the silver - which is beautiful to use with this cross.
