Birthday Card for a Special Lady

Here's a birthday card for my wonderful Mom-in-law.


I've entered this in the Hero Arts challenge for May. The theme this month is Flowers ~ Coloring with Pencils ~ ATCs. I hit 2 out the 3 with my card.
Stamps used: La Letter, Flowers and Swirls, Find Joy.
The die is a new Nestabilities Labels 20.
The orange pp is from the Sweet Threads collection by Basic Grey.
The background stamping is done with Pumice Stone Distress ink.

~ Isaiah 26:3-4 ~
You will keep in perfect peace
all who trust in You,
all whose thoughts are fixed on You!
Trust in the Lord always,
for the Lord God is the Eternal Rock.

This verse is for my sweet friend Jacqueline, I'm thinking of you and praying for you today!


Thanks for your visit today
blessings,
nancy

    This card is so pretty, Nanc! I love the background you've created using the same flower stamp! Your die cut panel is gorgeous and love the way you've colored the flowers with those beautiful, summery shades!

    I love that verse Nancy and your prayers are being answered as I can still sit here and type after my first treatment - PTL! The peace of God is so precious!

    I also love your flower card for your MIL - you colored it beautifully! I love the dimension too.

    Sweet blessings!
    Jacqueline
