Color Throwdown Challenge #637 // Freshly Made Sketches #480

 2 challenges inspired today's card...

Color Throwdown // #ctd637 ...A color challenge!  The colors for this current challenge are kraft, pink, yellow, and green.  Perfect color combo for playing with my new Flowering Cactus Product Medley.  For my colors I used Garden Green, Blushing Bride, Crushed Curry, and Crumb Cake.

Freshly Made Sketches // #FMS489 ...A sketch challenge!  I love this wavy sketch...super fun for lots of stamp sets.  But for today I had to ink up my newest set.

 

Verse of the Day:

All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.

2 TIMOTHY 3:16-17 (NLT)

Fusion Challenge 4.1.21 // Be Kind

Today's card was inspired by the Fusion challenge.  Each time they post a new challenge we are given a photo and a sketch...we can either choose one or the other as our inspiration or we can FUSE them together and use both.  Today I am using both elements of their Be Kind challenge.

Verse of the Day:

All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right. God uses it to prepare and equip his people to do every good work.
