Papertrey Ink-May Release - God Is Our Refuge

Hello,

Today's May Release card showcases the new Beautiful Blessings stamp set, designed by Nichole Heady. I love how this card turned out.

I used the new seed packet frame die to create a pop-up frame that surrounds the scripture from Beautiful Blessings. Of course, the pretty frame stamp is from the new Garden Variety stamp set.

The little flower & leaves combo at the top of the frame, in conjunction with the looped ribbon were the perfect little finishing touches. Goodness, what did we do before we had so many different die options?! Haha. I think I use them on just about everything these days.

Hope your week is going well!

Toodles,

{God is Our Refuge supplies}

Hi there! I'm Dawn McVey and I'd like to welcome you to my little corner of the internet. My hope is that you'll find this place warm and welcoming! I'm an artist with a heart for God. I worked as a graphic designer for ten years, before starting my own art business. I love color and all things vintage! My handsome husband, Bart, is also my best friend. I was extremely sick for more than 8 years and eventually had a rare small intestine transplant on October 28, 2017! During those years of being so sick, I got lots of practice learning how to choose joy in the midst of extreme suffering! ;) I'm so, so grateful for all that the Lord has done in our lives to bless us and to bring me to a place of health! He used that long season of illness to draw us closer to Him and we've also seen Him use our transplant story in amazing ways, to pour faith, hope and joy into the lives of others. Those years of struggle were so hard, but I wouldn't trade them because I can see how He was with us every step of the way and how He was using every bit of it for our good and His glory. My hope now, is that I can encourage you to choose joy in the midst of your own struggles. While you're here, I hope you laugh or smile or find some inspiration and encouragement. I hope you enjoy your time with me and ultimately, I hope you see some of HIM while you're here. He is everything. Much love, friends…
