Congratulations to ODBD and Kelley on five great years of stamps. I love ODBD stamps so, of course, I had to participate.
The background panel of my card is watercolor paper. I splashed distress stains on my non-stick surface, spritzed with a little water, and laid the panel in the stains. The stains and watercolor paper make a wonderful background for these beautiful flower corners and sentiment (all ODBD stamps of course).
I am also sharing this card at a few other challenge spots. SweetStamps wants to see green. Simon Says Stamp wants a bit of green. Great Impressions is going green (either use green or recycle). Don't tell anyone, but my watercolor panel is recycled. I had made a mistake on the other side and couldn't use the image, so I turned the panel over and a new card front could be made.

I love this card. Isn't it neat when one can use a mistake somehow. I really like the verse and the image in 2 corners really sets it off nicely.
Great card.
