Sidekick Blessings from Heaven

Today I choose to do LEND A HAND and DON'T COLOR BETWEEN THE LINES. I water colored my rectangle panel using all three colors then cut with spellbinder rectangle die then stamped my sentiment in black ink and matted on blushing bride cd. I embossed the so saffron with cuttlebugs Leaves EF.

On the inside I stamped the praying hands in blushing bride then stamped the sentiment from Blessings from Heaven over that in pear pizzazz ink and then again on the envelope. Hope you like it. Now let's go earn some money. Hobby Lobby opens in Tifton next week and I plan on being there. We are just too excited to have one closer to us.
