Hi friends,
This card was made for the Encouraging Word hop, for which the scripture verse designated was Nehemiah 8:10. My creative response was a First Holy Communion card to the last line of the verse: "The joy that the Lord gives you will make you strong." The sacrament of Holy Communion is one of divine joy and spiritual strength - joy in receiving Christ Himself and strength through His presence within.
Products used:
#tayloredexpressions (Gilded Oval embossing folder & basic pierced ovals)
#craftsmart woodblock stamp for rays (now used in the Misti for stamping ease) #catherine pooler ink (limoncello) gold cardstock & gold glitter.
The chalice was hand-drawn & cut. The IHS on the host was done with an embossing tool & the sentiment was computer-generated.
Challenges entered:
#wordartwednesday - anything goes
#paperfunday - dry embossing
#craftycalender - add a sentiment

Have a great day.
