Peace & Flowers

Happy Mother's Day! Every Sunday while the house is still quiet and we aren't in mad dash for church, I always do my project for the Stampin' Sisters in Christ Challenge. Today is no different. The challenge today is based off of John 4:23. I love Linda's thoughts on this verse and when you worship in spirit and in truth, you are given peace that only the Father can give. I made my card very clean and simple with straight lines because my scripture should be the focal point, not any of the other embellishments because the scripture is the true beauty of the card.

I pray that all of you have a very blessed Mother's Day and if you're not a "mom," you can be assured that you've touched the lives of many others, just like a mom would.
