Be Strong and Take Heart


This week and probably next week my posts are going to be short and sweet!  I'll be out of town for 6 out of the next 9 nights so I'm sharing cards made for no particular occasion.  This card is highlighting another new Verve set.  The fonts are fabulous and this Psalm is so beautiful.  I used a felt heart that I've had in my stash for a really long time along with some beaded flowers I bought two years ago when I was in England.  

I also thought I'd share pictures from Marcel's birthday party a couple of weeks ago.  We had his party at a place called SkyZone where they have a ton of different trampolines.  They played dodgeball, basketall and just good old jumping!  Needless to say they were hot, happy and tired at the end of the party!  A great day in his eyes and ours.

I love the wood look at the base-can't tell if it is DSP? The felt heart is just perfect with the pins. Looks like a lot of fun all that jumping around x

I can't let my boys see those pictures of your sweet boy's birthday party...we don't have one of those here! Beautiful card, the sentiment really rings true for me right now.

It looks like those pretty beaded flowers finally found a perfect home. I love the soft pink and white-washed woodgrain combo.
