Welcome
It's time for another Challenge over at Word Art Wednesday, where our most generous sponsor this fortnight is
Pretty Pink Posh, with a $30 gift voucher for the winner.
I don't often make smaller or square cards, but this piece of very dark green card was sitting on my desk from another project, and it fitted the die cut beautifully, so here it is ...
After printing out the scripture, which is available free over at the blog site, I die cut it using one of the S/B Majestic Elements (Square) [discontinued]
I only added colour to the flowers and some of the leaves in the floral ends to the banner.
I then brushed some Memento Delicata Golden Glitz ink on the edges.
The ribbon is gold toned chiffon, that I used double on the base to give the better colour, and then tied the bow with a single layer.
I finished the inside with a strip of gold tape.

I love how you diecut the verse and added gold to the edges. So elegant on the black card xx
Maxine, this is one of my favorite verses in the Bible. Your framework around it looks awesome. Such a pretty card!
Amen.
This die perfectly frames the Scripture, Maxine. Lovely!
The black and yellow gold looks very elegant Maxine, many thanks for joining us at Allsorts challenge this week.

Lovely colour combo Maxine
Very elegant card for the Scripture! Excellent coordination, Maxine!
That is a lovely card, Maxine :) xx
what a beautiful card Maxine. The sentiment is stunning.
Unlike you I favour making square and/or smaller cards, so I like this. I also have this die and like using it, but the way you have inked its edges really pushes it up a level. - Very nice. Kate xx
The square design sure does look fabulous with that pretty die cut Maxine x. Such a striking card x.
This card is so lovely and elegant!

This is a classy card Maxine and I think the square format lends itself to a comforting look. That is a gorgeous frame die you have cut - looks very good on here.
Blessings, Neet xx
What a beautiful verse and so nicely framed and set off. Lovely!
Very nice card! Thanks for playing at Through The Craftroom
I don't make square cards much either Maxine, I love a square card, but they cost more to mail here in the states, so thus why I don't make them often. I love your card!!! The dark green base is so pretty with the yellow die cut that your scripture is on. Love this scripture and you have showcased it beautifully with this color combo. Hugs, Brenda
Lovely card! Great design!
Oh, I love that die, Maxine, and the sheer ribbon was a perfect choice! Let me say "Thanks" for playing along in our challenge at Jan's Digi Stamps this month. Good luck in the draw and we love seeing people like you play with us regularly.
