Hello Ladies: This was an interesting challenge for me, I had made several different types of cards without any layers and no embellishments, no glue and for me no glitter is very hard! But, I think I have a winner (I think). This is for the Kairos Ministry I saw it on another set of cards that was sent out and I used to do this type of ministry and was immediately drawn to it. I hope these cards work! I have made 8 of them and will send out on Tuesday!
Thanks for looking!

Oh Michele! These are gorgeous! Thank you so much for extending God's love to those who are down! The lady that hosts the retreats for the women's prison told me that each prisoner holds her card like something of value for the longest time, running their fingers over the image and taking it all in. Then they open the cards and read over and over and smile, and then they share their card with the others. It is very touching to them to think that a stranger could care enough to send them words of hope. And that is what everyone needs- hope.
Bless your heart for joining in on this project for Kairos. I pray that God returns your kindness over and over! LIC- Pat

Oh wow! I wish I had come up with something this creative for my cards! I think I was "stifled" in my own mind by the thoughts of all ONE LAYER cards. The way you did the background, and then centered the verses, is just beautiful! I know the women are going to be blessed when they receive these!
