Come to me, all who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you rest. These words from the book of Matthew have long been of comfort to many, no matter the circumstance. Julie’s card today beautifully conveys that message along with some vibrant red poppy stems and a lovely hand stamped background. Julie’s vintage inspired accents of lace and machine stitching finish it off perfectly.

The color combination here is just lovely, too!

The poppies and background stamp are from Pretty Poppies by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

The scripture verse is from Words of Encouragement by Stamp Simply Clear Stamps.

The Crochet die by Tim Holtz (Sizzix) was used to create the strip of paper lace.

Can you see the very subtle stenciling under the text background created with the Flourish stencil by Tim Holtz (Sizzix).

The fun red paper used is from My Valentine by Carta Bella.

Julie accented with Kaisercraft Pearls and stamped with VersaFine Onyx Black, Distress Oxide Inks and colored with water based markers.

What a lovely card of comfort to send to uplift and encourage one in need.

Thanks so much, Julie!
