Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge

This is my card for Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge. The Scripture was I Corinthians 13:12. Awesome Scripture to remind us of how much more there is for us as we see our Savior face to face. The challenge was to make a shadowbox card. This was another first for me. I hadn't seen or made one before. My mind was spinning with possibilities for this kind of card. I used 2 shades of green from colorbox. I used the ek morrocan punch to punch the sides. I used this frame stamp that has no name but I just love it. I watercolored it and cut it out. I cut out the green background and fastened the frame over the cut out . Originally I entended to make a small cut out up above the first one that is why I didnt center it but decided it would detract from the central one so didnt do that after all. I then used stickles to run all over the card for a shimmery design. I cut my Scripture out and pop dotted it up on the back piece of green.Fastened the back and front together and finished with some green jewels scattered around and a ribbon loop with a pearl on it. This was a really fun card to make!! Blessings to you all this week.

Davi, this is stunning! I think that being off set is working in this case. The frame set is just the right thing for this card. I am glad that you likes making them.

Davi, great colors and the swirly stickels really adds a lot. Just love that Morrocan Lace punch. This is absolutely my fav Scripture because the world is spinning out of control and the only way to KNOW THE LORD is to be STILL inside and let Him into our hearts. He waits if we are still and listen. Thanks for using this verse and sharing it with all of us in such a beautiful card.

beautiful! I love that it's offset - it works nicely with the frame stamp. Love the stickles - how they're going all over the place and yet in the center, is a priceless verse that instills calm & serenity. Love it!!!
