Purple Happy Birthday

 Good Morning, Fellow Cardcrafters,

I can't believe it's been so long since I posted a card.  Things come up and the busyness of life takes over sometimes.

Today I'm posting a card with a printed paper with purple and gold. Sometimes I don't post cards because my iPhone just doesn't take good pictures, even when editing. Does anyone else experience this? The colors just don't come out the same as the actual card.

Enough of my complaining!

This is a picture of today's card:


The border is from a Spellbinders die called "Curvy Borders Two." There are a few dies in the package that are very pretty. The sentiment is a simple "Happy Birthday Wishes" from SU, a retired stamp set. It is heat embossed with gold EP.

It's framed in sparkling gold cardstock and a sparkling gold butterfly was added. Pretty simple card. The patterned paper with gold accents is what makes the bold statement. Again, wish the colors had come through more clearly.

I am entering this card in the following challenges:

Romans 10:9-11
9 If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by confessing with your mouth that you are saved.

Acts 13:38-39
38 "Brothers, listen! We are here to proclaim that through this man Jesus there is forgiveness for your sins. 39 Everyone who believes in him is declared right with God—something the law of Moses could never do.  NLT

A Simple Prayer for Salvation:

O, God!  I know that I am a sinner. I thank You that Jesus Christ, Your Holy Son, was born of a virgin, came and lived a sinless life here on earth, and died on the cross as a sinless sacrifice for my sin. He is no longer dead, but rose from the dead and is seated at the right hand of God the Father Almighty. I accept His atonement for every sin I have ever committed and receive Your salvation. I put all of my trust in Jesus Christ of Nazareth and receive Him as Lord of my life from this moment on. Thank You Father God for this grace given to me.

2 Corinthians 5:17  This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun.  NLT

  1. What a lovely sparkly on this card of lavendar. It seems to get the color better. I love how you used the spellbinder curve die in this way, it is very attractive. I use my iphone for my pictures, and find that purple has been a problem. When that happens, I use my ipad for that picture. I am so glad that you linked up to the Double D Challenge.
