We have friends in Paris who have two little boys. They've been on my heart today along with the many families who lost someone or witnessed the tragedy in Nice. That influenced the colors of my card I had been planning for today, the blue, white, and red, the colors of the French flag. I chose a message of prayer: The Lord will see you through this tough time.
and inside the message says: "God is never far away, His love is always near. And with God by your side you will get through this!" (from Our Daily Bread Designs' "Faith Card Sentiments")
I used a Cuttlebug Fleur de Lis embossing folder, Simon Says "prayers" die, MFT double stitched circle Die-Namics, papers from BoBunny Anthem Collection, CTMH twine, Champagne and Black ink, blue background and cardstock, and this sketch for the front;
Thank you for visiting! May God keep you and yours in His loving watch care!
I'm sharing this card with the following challenges:
Cut It Up #100 - anything goes with a die cut
Fab 'n' Funky #313 - add a sentiment
Mojo Monday 456 - sketch
Simply Create Too Challenge #113 - Red, White, or Blue (I chose all three)
Word Art Wednesday #238-239 - anything goes family friendly

Very appropriate. Nice textures and colors.
How thoughtful of you. I love that your paper has lots of stamps from different countries to lend their colors and their love and support.
Thanks for celebrating our 100th post with us at Cut it Up!
