This is for Lori's HYCCT challenge to use a sentiment strip across the width of your card. I had too many ideas for this one; I couldn't settle on anything. Ever have that dilemma? I decided to lean on the sketch challenge to facilitate my card. In my collection of pre-stamped & unused goodies that I couldn't toss, I found this verse and I knew it was the one! I think it would be encouraging for someone. The stamp is so wide that I had to use the sketch with different border dimensions and lengthen the crossbar for my stamp and the HYCCT challenge. Even with those adjustments, the design elements of the sketch are still there. I wanted a soft background, so I stamped off the background stamp before making the impression on the card base. To finish, I added pearls accents and used a pearl strip to underline "strengthens" for emphasis. Two great challenges! Thanks for looking. I hope you are enjoying the sketch challenges on SCS each week and during October, enjoying the HYCCT challenges each day!

Fantastic job splitting the sentiment and this is my all time favorite bible verse. So beautifully put together using what you have that needs to be used and you can't part with it. Those are my favorite cards.
