Blessed Are Card by Samantha

Hello! Samantha here with you to showcase one of my favorite SRM products: Bible Journaling Stamps. Today I have a blessed are sympathy card to share. 

I used SRM's Blessed Are stamp set to create this card. Sympathy cards are never easy to create, so I always try to keep them clean and simple. 

A simple combination of white and grey give this card a modern look. Grey keeps the card looking a bit softer than black ink.  A bit of embossing at the bottom of the card adds a little extra texture and interest.

 While I chose words for after "Blessed are" that were appropriate for a sympathy card, there are other follow up words in this set that would be great for someone going on a service trip, someone going through a rough time, or someone needing some encouragement. What a versatile stamp set! 

Walk by Faith Bible Journaling & Card by Karen

Part of the process for me as I Bible journal is prayer. Oftentimes I have specific people in mind as I reflect on scripture and use the Word I am reflecting on as part of my prayers. That was true as I reflected on Psalm 18 and prayed for a friend who was battling cancer. After my prayer and Bible journaling time, I wanted to send a note to my friend to encourage her and let her know I was praying for her. I decided to use my Bible journaling page to create a greeting card.

For my page, I used the spear-like arrow stamp on the Walk By Faith stamp set. I think it's the perfect visual for verse 39 "For you equipped me with strength for the battle." I colored in my sketch with ColorIn Watercolor Twists.

The process is very simple. I scanned my page (you could also take a photo) and imported the file into a word processing document so that I could resize it and print it on my color printer. After that, it was simply layering cardstock on top of a 5x7 card base.
