Don't Give Up!

Beautiful scripture don't you think? I can always use to be reminded not to give up. Today over at SCS is the Featured Stamper challenge, where Julie from the UK is being featured. She puts so much detail in her cards, you ought to hop over to her blog if you've never been. I chose to case this card .  I know I promised to show off some of my new Valentine stuff, but then the FS challenge posted so I took a quick break to make this card. But really...the Verve stamp is new to me...Verve was having a nice sale so I purchased quite a few faith oriented stamps & sets. The next post will have some new Valentine things...promise. Don't give up!

Supplies:
Stamps: Galatians 6:9 (Verve)
Paper: Vanilla, River Rock (SU)
Ink: River Rock (SU)
Accessories: Ivory Roses (Prima), frond punch (MS), Labels Four Nestabilities (Spellbinder), Impression plate (Sizzix)

Butterfly Faith

Here is another faith related card to add to the gift set I am making for my sister for Christmas. I combined three Splitcoaststamper challenges. The sketch (SC296), the color (CC287) and the teapot challenge (MMTPT110). I really like this color combination with SU! new in-colors. The purple- Concord Grape is really rich. It is nice for faith related cards as it is so regal. You can't see from the picture but the designer paper is textured which adds a nice feel and a little dimension to the card. Thanks for looking!
