This week the Tea Potter's are sending messages of hope and healing to Chrylene who has experienced a series of losses, most recently her brother. Our hostess, Jen, challenged us to use flowers and stitching (faux or otherwise).
I used my new GinaK stencil and die set. I wanted the flowers to look a bit brighter, so I embossed the entire piece with clear ep. Chrylene enjoys scripture, so I asked my niece, who is student of the Bible, for a selection and she chose Philippians 4:6-7, which I typed out using Bilbo Swash Cap font. In addition to the circle frame, I added stitching to the main panel, but it disappeared when I embossed it.
I hope the many beautiful and encouraging cards headed to Chrylene will lift her spirits and give some comfort as she travels this difficult road called Grief. I hope your day is filled with beauty and encouragement as well. TFL

Your new set is so pretty...it looks amazing hugging that circle die. How wonderful that you have your niece to recommend a bible verse. She did well with this one...it's perfect to comfort Chrylene in her time of grief. What a lovely card.
