Welcome
A very warm welcome to my new follower Barbara, of Being Mrs Miles. Barbara has a lovely blog with some awesome work on display - please pop over and visit her.
Today marks the start of the new Word Art Wednesday Challenge, and we are being sponsored by Newton's Nook with a generous $20 prize for the winner.
As I don't own any Newton's Nook images, I used a floral freebie from Graphics Fairy, and imported the scripture onto it before printing.
I brushed the edges of the image with C.P Queen for a Day ink, and did likewise to the pale blue cardstock - the difference in the resultant colour does not show in the photos, but it is there :)
I decorated the end of the card with a layer of pink organza ribbon over a layer of blue, then tied a wee bow of the pink over top.
The insert was finished with a piece of floral purple washi tape

A lovely card and verse. Pansies are special to me and they remind me of my sister who has always loved them. She is in her late eighties now and I still make her a card every year with pansies on it. Kate x
ReplyDeleteClever work dear, Maxine, great idea using the panaies to complement the wonderful verse!
ReplyDeleteOh, we are indeed blessed in the Lord. How greatly He blesses us, look at our moment by momebt, day by day needs met.. and abounding at times.. and yet in time of trouble we can safely cast our care upon Him for He careth for us!
Thanks for sharing, and may God bless and keep you and all whom you love safe and well.
