And what does the Lord require of you but to do justly, and to love kindness
and mercy, and to humble yourself and walk humbly with your God? (Micah 6:8)

Homegrown

Hello friends!  Our church had Vacation Bible School this week so it has been a little crazy…and busy!  Many of our activities for the week were scheduled for outside and of course the meteorologists were calling for rain and thunderstorms each evening.  Amazingly, the rain held off just long enough each night for us to complete our activities, and the kids have been having a lot of fun!  The rain that we did get was a blessing and gardeners were thrilled that their flowers and plants received the much needed nourishment. My homegrown card for today is actually a CASE of THIS card by my Breadstick sister, Paula Bigelow.


Creative Nugget:  All stamps and dies used on this card are from Our Daily Bread Designs.  Paper from the Blooming Garden Collection was cut with the large rectangle from the Flourished Star Pattern die set and along with Summer Sun card stock was added to the card base.  The Seed Packet was stamped in Fern Green Archival ink and the homegrown sentiment added.  The image from The Good Seed was stamped three times and colored with Copic Markers.  Portions of the image were fussy cut and popped up for dimension.  The sentiment was stamped and cut with one of the Pennant Dies and a seam binding bow added to finish the card.

My prayer is that some of the rain we've been getting in the east makes its way out west to my friends in California!

This card will be submitted to the following challenges:

Word Art Wednesday #188 - Anything Goes
Ladybug Crafts - Use Your Dies
Sister Act Card Challenge #110 - Anything Goes

Thanks so much for stopping by…sow a seed of friendship today!

Hugs,
