For my card today I am featuring the Love stamp. Finally a stamp that features 1 Corinthians 13. I have been . wanting this forever now.
For the main panel I used Arches cold press watercolor paper and I added clean water to the paper in area to cover the stamp and used Peerless watercolors to add color. I let it dry naturally. After it was dried I stamped the image owith Versafine ink. Next I embossed with clear ultra fine embossing powder. 
 Adhered to black card base and voila.



Now, head over to Jeanne's blog to check her amazing designs!

It is unfortunate that the stamp seems to have an error. The second "protects" toward the end should be "hopes".

Molina the card is Gorgeous but the stamp is incorrect.. they used the word protects in place of hopes.. Hoping they will recreate the stamp correctly but even though it's wrong you have created a Beautiful card!

This card is stunning with the bright colors set off so well with the basic black and white. Clear embossing the text was a great idea for highlighting this element. TSF.

I love how you did the background! It's not only lovely, but I think about thae fact that sometimes love is messy, so the the background also speaks to me on that level! :-)
