I wanted to share a birthday card I made for a friend who sometimes finds life difficult, so I wanted to encourage her in her faith.
I based the layout on a Splitcoast Stampers challenge. The stamps used were A Scripture from Our Daily Bread Designs and an SU Stem sayings. The papers were some from an unnamed pack. I stamped the main image in Brilliance Pearescent Thyme and sponged the edge of the lemon card base in Memento Bamboo Leaves.
Three half pearls either side of the reference complete what has basically been a simple card.
The next stop on this blog hop is: Rita Barakat.
Thanks for calling by, and I pray this has blessed you. I would love it if you have time to leave a comment!! :-)
