Today is SCS
(Scripture Card Sunday)which means I try to make an inspirational card for the day. It's a way of keeping me grounded and sharing my faith. However not feeling it today, I suppose that's why they say faith isn't about feelings. Thank God. Any ways just a lot of things going on here causing some extra stress and added pain. Please keep my mom in your prayers as she goes in for lung surgery on Tuesday. With being on dialysis 3x a week her lungs keep filling with fluid so they are going to try and fix the problem. Then there's my health been going to a doctor quite frequently again, and the only thing I can 100% say is the bills keep adding up. Plus trying to help my daughter plan her wedding. So prayers around the table are appreciated. Sorry for the long winded paragraph, just wanted to keep ya updated.
So onto the card. I'm playing with two combined challenges today. Super fun and fabulous. Less Is More and AAA Cards
Gosh after seeing all the absolutely stunning/beautiful cards submitted, I don't feel very worthy of adding mine into the entry, but I will try.
I chose blue for my card base, and used stampendous Daisy Thanks for the floral and butterfly imgages, I also used the scripture verse sentiment and that was a single stamp I bought at a craft store. Now I stamped the verse in black and then embossed above and below it by using my scoreboard. I then stamped the floral and butterfly image in black and then gave it a shadow look by stamping again with versa mark. I added wink of stella to the butterfly to make it sparkle, and I used my white gel pen to color the center of the one little flower. Overall it was a very simple card to make and I enjoy trying to learn the less is more technique.. White space is a good place.
Thank you so much for stopping by. I sure would love to have you follow my blog, pinterest or facebook page.
