Verve is celebrating their 5th Anniversary with several challenges and a sale. I used their Meditations set on this card which is currently 40% off.
One of the benefits of using scriptures is while making the card you can memorize the verse. Even though I know this verse I don't always remember where the verse is found in the Bible.
The sketch is a challenge with Sketchy Colors. I used Basic Grey's pb&j papers. Martha Stewart provided the border punch and the shadow underneath. The corner punch is Sizzix. A bit of stitching and a pearl inside the cross completes the card.
Thanks for visiting!
Challenges:
Basic Grey - anything goes
Stamping Sisters in Christ - Use sentiment only
Word Art Wednesday - meaning of joy (Lord's strength)
Lovely card and colors!

Love this project. Great scripture.
ReplyDeleteI just LOVE this patchwork quilt looking style, and of course a favorite scripture of many (including me). It always seems to convict my heart when I read it. Thanks for linking up and sharing this with us in Challenge #42 at Word Art Wednesday.

I love that verse! I chose it as our school memory verse one of the years I was principal of a Christian school. Your card is just beautiful. What gorgoues papers. Every detail beautifully frames the verse. Thanks for joining us for the Stampin' Sisters in Christ challenge this week. We are loving having this inspiration there for all of us to enjoy!

ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilted card!!! You're so right...we shouldn't just be creating with scripture, we should use it as a tool for scripture memorization.
