This is for Mary, a sweet friend I met while visiting Shirt in May. We had the best time, just like old friends. We joined Shirl in Sunday School and that is when I also met Jimmy, the most encouraging SS teacher! This image made me think of Mary and her love of the woods.
Main image is from Stampscapes and has been watercolored and masked, and white singo gel added to bring out more of the framing of the church. Flower Soft was added at the bottom and the bg edges distressed.
The inside sentiment is from Hampton Arts and was a gift to me from my dear friend Jenny (Creative Cards). It reads 'A friend loveth at all times. Proverbs 17:17'
Thanks for looking!

Wow, this is so wonderfully done. That church with the gel pen was a perfect touch. Mary will love this. She does like scenery and appreciates God's wonderful creations. Those flowers look so real.

Absolutely beautiful! Makes you just want to have a seat in the pew of that church and just stay for a while. Love the flower soft. Never tried it before, but I'm gonna have to!
