I want to give a big welcome to Karyn and Kate ~ my newest blog followers.

Even though I'm a member of the Doodle Pantry DT, I wasn't "scheduled" to create a card for today's new product release. But when I saw the Renewed Faith Sentiments set . . . I knew I had to create a card using one of the scripture sentiments.
I won't go into details, but I shared with Laurie, the creator of Doodle Pantry, why this particular verse/sentiment meant so much to me and why I wanted to join the other DT group today. God always knows what we need and when we need it.
I had the butterfly stick pin on my desk; I don't remember why or when I made it. But, it was destined to be a part of this card. And I didn't have any Coral flowers, so I sponged a few pink ones. A bit of ribbon and spirals complete the decorative aspect of the card.
The gorgeous DSP is also a part of this set and I actually had ink (Memento Morocco) and cardstock (Stampin' Up! Calypso Coral) that matched it perfectly. The sentiment and matching mat were cut using Spellbinders' Decorative Labels Eight.
I don't know if it's because of who I made this card for, or the verse/sentiment, or because it came together just as I had envisioned . . . but this will always be one of my top 10 favorite cards.
