This week at the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge: http://stampinsistersinchrist.blogspot.com/
we have been challenged to create a shadowbox card. (No more shadows, no more dim reflections when we get to heaven!) I have used the Layers of Color New Release set 'Touch of Elegance: http://www.layersofcolor.com/blog/
which is just fabulous to use and I didn't realise how versitile it was until I inked it up!!
This is a close up of the side panel which has been stamped with Toouch of Elegance and brought together with tape and chiffon ribbon! A lock and key were added to the side - this is symbolic of being a prisioner of Christ (as Paul speak of in Ephesians 4:1) - being 'locked into' rather than 'locked up.'
This Challenge this week has been quite a journey for me - the card was the easiest part - but the scripture - it stirred me so much and challenged me deeply. The concept of seeing Him Face to Face is one that fills the heart of every Christian with joy and hope - this week I have been challenged with the reality of it and whether my heart is prepared - this is a daily challenge and I am grateful that as Christian we are not perfect, but are committed to the process - which won't be complete until that great day!!
Thank you for looking and for your encouraging comments, you do my heart good! I love seeing that you have been, and I would encourage you to play along this week at the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge - it is food for thought - and then some!!
