Trust in Thee

Today I have a card that I'd like to share with you.  I have been learning to use embossing powders and I thought that I'd give it a try with this card.  If you click on the picture, it'll get bigger so you can see it better.  I have used some Word Art by Karen from Papercraft Memories.  Karen makes word art with scripture and her posts are always so encouraging!   May God be praised for He alone is God and beside Him there is none other! My heart is indeed joyful knowing that this amazing God is also the one whom has forgiven my sins and given me eternal life through His son Jesus!
For this card, I've layered the image which is lightly inked with gold ink around it's edges, then matted on some blue (Stampin' Up) and green cardstock(textured Dollar Store).  I've used some Stampology black ink and embossing pearl in gold from Ranger Industries.  My card class instructor was so generous to give me a heat gun from jobmate (new in the box).  She had replaced her need of the older style with the new craft heat guns and didn't want it anymore.  So I've been playing.  Still not a pro, but am learning.  The stamps that I used are Inkadinkado for the flower flourish and Heidi Grace for the corners.  I love to try new things!
I'm going to be sharing this card with the ladies over at Word Art Wednesday.  Where God's word is the focus!
Thank you for dropping in to see what I've been up to.  I hope you're enjoying the weekend so far!
My parents are coming to visit in just two more sleeps and we are all excited here.  Trying to get the house in order for their visit!

Very pretty, Jennifer! The gold embossing framing the wonderful verse fromPsalms is beautiful! Your statement about seeing your parents in just two more sleeps brings back memories...my friend used that term to explain time to her children when they were young...love it! Have a wonderful weekend!

Heat embossing is so much fun and I hardly ever drag out all those fun products to do it. :-( I think you did a great job Jennifer. The gold really pops on that vivid blue. Hugs!
