"Blessed are the peacemakers. They shall be called the children of God."
-Matthew 5:9
When you think of peace - what image comes to mind? A dove right? Well, what if I spelled this verse out and used some of the new bird images from Flourishes? HHhhhhhm. I might just have something there!
And so... I got to work!
I did have to shorten the saying a bit so that it would all fit. This is the Brayton font on one of the Just Rite rectangular stampers. It is a font that is naturally a bit "off" so stamping this was a breeze. These stampers are a dream. It makes you wonder, why didn't someone come up with a way for us to devise our own sentiments sooner??
To finish off the card, I stamped the bird from the Birds And Vine set with Versamark ink and embossed it with white. After matting it up,adding a sheer ribbon, some self stick pearls and a little punched leaf -- you're pretty much done!
Hope you are all enjoying your day! I'll be back tomorrow with a card set that is sure to get you in the holiday spirit!
Until then.....
