I made the card for a friend who've been going through a tough time lately. These are her favorite colors. The inside says: "God, please now my future see, make it clear where I should be. Open windows, close the doors, not my will, my God, but Yours." The prayer was written by the author Karen Kingsbury for her book, "Fame."
I used several punches on this card: Martha Stewart Heart Punch, Stampin' Up punches for the sentiment, and three flower punches. The scalloped rectangles are Nestabilities, the cross is a Shapabilities die, and the flourishes are a Sizzlit die. I embossed the background with my Cuttlebug and used a Fiskars border punch.
Hope you'll come on over and play with us at Cardabilities!
