Sew Prayerful

Hello friends! Today's card uses one of my favorite Cocoa digis, Sew Happy Cocoa, which is also available in clear stamp form. I think I like him so much because I love to cross stitch and quilt as well as stamp. And isn't that sentiment from the new clear set Prayerful Thoughts perfect? I colored Cocoa with Copics and added some pretty lace from Grandma. And I even found an old buckle in my stash. How fun! BTW, have you made your cards for the challenges yet? You have an excellent chance to win a free set just by playing along!

Thanks for stopping by!!

The Honest Truth

Sometimes the truth is hard to swallow and that is just the case with my card today....well, at least the sentiment on the card, anyway.


It comes from a new set being released in a couple of weeks called Prayerful Thoughts. The statement may be hard to swallow, but it certainly it an encouragement to know that God will always take care of us :).

I went with a monochromatic look for this card and chose a color that I would typically not use but I think it turned out quite nicely. I dug out one of our older sets, Floral Flourishes--which happens to be one sale right now :), to create the background on the two panels. I stamped the flourishes using Versamark and then chalked over them to add the soft color. I also chalked around the Nestie die to accent the sentiment.

May your day be blessed!
