I used today's SC for the TPT & will be sending this to our own Julie Gearinger's DH. He is having some health issues now & need some encouragement. On the inside is Isaiah 40:31 - They that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, & not be weary and they shall walk, & not faint.
I stamped & cut out this eagle head from an old MFP set & then trimmed the circle. I embossed the cloud ef. I used Balitmore Orioles colors as Dave is a fan. (The card base is Basic Black, which you can't tell from the way I took the photo.) I hope this will bring a measure of encouragement.
I'm off to work, so no time to comment.
Thanks for stopping by.

This looks a perfect card - I'm glad some people know the colours of the different teams because I would be totally clueless there. Great use of the sketch with your eagle, and I like the embossed cloudy background.

Great looking eagle's head, Karen. Like how you did the bg with clouds where he might be soaring. A wonderful CAS card that is sure to be appreciated...especially with your color selections.

Glad to hear you're off to work. Stop spending all your money there, silly woman. Good to see back up and running. Your card is wonderful, Karen. I love the verse you selected. I need to remember that one. Actually, I love the book of Isaiah. Actually, I've been reading his scripture during lent. Dan should certainly be encouraged by the words. Lovely card. Love that EF but never can think of how to use it. I love the to soar with eagles sentiment.
