Today I am sharing another card I made with no coloring on it. I wanted to kill a few birds with one stone here, namely enter the current Path of Positivity Challenge, use my Spellbinders layered flower dies and make a card for my current Chemo buddy to encourage her on her journey.
I checked through the promises section on my journalling Bible for a verse of encouragement and this one definitely did it for me. I measured the size of the circle I wanted to add to the card and created one the same size in MS Word to that I could size the scripture accordingly. I printed it out onto cardstock and cut it out with a Hero Arts Infinity die. I then created a 5.5×5.5 cardbase out of heavyweight white cardstock. Using silver cardstock from my stash, I cut a frame with my paper trimmer and then cut a 4.24×4.25 inch piece of cardstock to go in the centered of the frame. I embossed that piece of white cardstock with an embossing folder.

Oh, wow! That is gorgeous, Monica! Sometimes we need to use a wonderful message as our focal point and this is just beautifully done. Such pretty colors, too!
Such a beautiful card, thanks for sharing with us over at 'The Flower Challenge' 😉 Viv DT xx
Beautiful card and I love this verse with the layered flowers. So pretty. Thanks for joining us at The Flower Challenge!
The symmetry disorder in the card added a lot of traffic. A great idea for the inner square to be rotated relative to the card base. I also love your flowers, they are so light and spring.
