This card is based upon the final Verve sketch for this month. My son helped me select scrapbook papers for a special layout and I strategically cut the layers to have pieces left for a card. It's the first masculine-looking card I've made with which I am pleased.....my usual attitude is that if a mis-measurement or goof-up occurs I will offset it with a flower or ribbon. With a masculine card, that option is out

I absolutely LOVE this, Christine! There's nothing more beautiful than a scripture card and this one is very near and dear to my heart. When I was a little girl, my Grandpa would stand in our kitchen and look out the window up towards the hills and he would say this verse out loud. It's my earliest memory of hearing God's Word quoted out loud, and so it is very precious to me. Thank you SO MUCH for sharing this wonderful card in our challenge this week. I hope that you will have a blessed week, just as you have been a blessing to me today! God is so good to give us His holy and precious Word and I thank you for sharing your art created using this scripture.
Blessings & Hugs,

Christine,
This card is so wonderful. I love that scripture. From where I sit I can see the Gatineau Hill and the Laurentian mountains (north) and It always reminds me of this scripture.
The card is one I think I shall CASE.
We appreciate your participation in our weekly AG challenge. Thank you so much for showcasing this wonderful art with us at WAW.
Blessings,
