“But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.”  Romans 5:8

 

Today’s card uses the Hold on to Hope set and coordinating Cross of Hope framelits to create a note of encouragement.

Hold on to Hope - Center Stage StampingI love the detail in the cross framelit.  I used the Petal Pair embossing folder to add some texture to the shite panel and stamped the flower in crumb cake on the crumb cake piece.  Both sentiments are stamped in Soft Suede.  Here is a closer look at the stamped panel.

Hold onto Hope close up - Center Stage Stamping

I like the subtle flowers behind the sentiment.  The Tutti-frutti cards and envelopes make a nice base. This card would look good in any of the colors in the pack.

Thanks for stopping by.  As we prepare to celebrate the Resurrection of Christ on Easter Sunday, I leave you with the words of one of my favorite hymns:

O sacred Head, now wounded,
With grief and shame weighed down,
Now scornfully surrounded
With thorns, Thine only crown.
O sacred Head, what glory,
What bliss, till now was Thine!
Yet, though despised and gory,
I joy to call Thee mine.

-Mary
