A card of Encouragment and a freebie

Image
I made this card today and wanted to share it with you, I think everything we keep in our life should be uplifting, art entertainment, relationships. There is nothing life building in toxic!  I think of the Bible verse Philippians 4:8 Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things. And Surround yourself and those you love with 'those things'! I used this beautiful Teal Paper to dry emboss for a background layer  such pretty details in this Gecko Galz Spring image Best Glue Ever  to hold all the layers I added a tiny bit of clear glitter nail polish and here is a freebie for you! Have a great week! Ginny M
