The Lord is my Strength and my Song

Welcome!  I'm so glad you could join me today! 

 I have some news to share...as well as a card of course. 

I am excited to announce that I have joined the design team over at Twist of Faith Card Challenges!  This is a blog I recently discovered, and fell in love with its "mission"...sharing the love of God through their card making and creativity.  I am blessed to be working with these ladies, and look forward to learning from them as well as encouraging each other and other bloggers in their faith!

Well, now onto the business at hand...

Twist of Faith has a new challenge starting today, and it is "Borders & Fancy Edges".  Our sponsor this week is

 

and the prize for this challenge will be 5 digis of the winners choice! 

I chose to work with the image "Music Man" as I knew I had a sentiment on a stamp that would work perfectly!  I picked out a pumpkin colored card stock and got the Silhouette Cameo humming. I chose to use a really cool card with a fancy scrolled edge.  I started looking through my designer paper and decided to go with Authentique's "Strong" line.  All of the coordinating card papers on the front of the card come from this line.  I inked the edges of the card pieces with "Not Quite Navy" by Stamp 'n Up.  The circle die cut was produced by using the a Spellbinders die in my BigShot.  I adhered a musical washi tape to the side of the card to create a simple border.  The sentiment was stamped and fussy cut into random shapes so I could adhere them to the card in a scattered pattern.  Both the digi image and the wording have been mounted onto navy colored card stock so that they would pop off the page a little more.  I then fussy cut some notes I printed out with the Silhouette Cameo.  Lastly, I chose a yellowish colored paper to use as a liner on the inside of the right hand side of the card so that the scrolled edge became a more focal feature. 

Here's how it turned out...

And there we have it!  Thanks for joining me today, and I hope you have a chance to link up with us over at Twist of Faith...just remember you must use a scripture, verse or uplifting or encouraging sentiment somewhere on your card (inside or out...it's your choice!)  And don't forget to visit the other DT's blogs to see their most awesome creations! 

Don't be a stranger...hope to see you again soon!  And wherever you are, I hope that the verse I used on today's card is a promise you can claim...the Lord is my Strength and my Song!
