which is a colour challenge this week - we are to use olive, red, black and white - the other challenge is a new one - it is the first challenge for Stamping Sisters in Christ: http://stampinsistersinchrist.blogspot.com/
- and I am thrilled to be able to play! I love the faith based challenges and hope to play each week. It is such a thrill to be able to combine our love for paper and for God! This week was based on the scripture:
"I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty." John 6:35 (NIV)
sets Nature Walk and Garden Borders which both feature strawberries, which are YUMBLY at the best of times!! I close the scripture in Matthew to work with this theme as it speaks of seeing first the Kingdom Of God...then comes everything else....definitely ties in with man not living by bread alone!!
All images were coloured with Chalks and then had Kindy Glitz lightly added, it just seems to bring these images to life! I also added nail bling to the centre of the flower on Garden Borders...nail bling seems to be just the right mount of bling without screaming 'look at me, look at me!'. The scripture is layered onto a rectangular scalloped Nestie and then the images layered on dimensionals.

Linda, dear Linda, I'm so sorry I haven't been around to comment on your gallery. I get your feedblitz so I know you've uploaded new goodies to look at, but I've been so sick and unable to get to all my gallery comments. Just started uploading again myself. I will finish the rest of my comments tomorrow as I don't want to rush through all your new cards. Linda, this card is GORGEOUS! I love the verse and your amazing images and coloring. That sparkle sure doesn't hurt either and your bling in the corner. I just love what you've done here. I see you've changed your avatar photo. Looks wonderful!! Great job my friend! TFS!
