For my creation, I used a sneak peak from Our Daily Bread Designs, The Anchor and He Shall be Called background stamp. The dp is from SEI Moravia.

The light blue panels were stamped with the He Shall Be Called background stamp on Bo Bunny Surfboard paper. The image and sentiment is from The Anchor (sneak peak to be release on Feb 1).
