The Power Behind Us Bluebird Card...

Hi ya'll...Today, I want to share with you this card I made a few weeks ago for a male friend who is physically challenged.  It was his birthday and I thought of making an encouragement card.  He had been paralyzed from the chest down due to an accident that happened like 3 years ago.  Believing in the healing that was won by Jesus 2000+ years ago is what keeps him going and we all agree in prayer.  Miracles do happen everyday and we all know that it's not going to be long for that healing to manifest completely in his body.  Anyway, it was his birthday so, had to come up with a manly card (we all know how difficult it is at times to make cards for guys) and at the same time, captures the essence of our faith in the Lord.  So, here's what I came up with.  The bird image was embossed with Blue Tinsel embossing powder came from TPC Studio and so as the sentiment. I incorporated an adorable border from EK Success, black eyelets, Cuttlebug embossing and some stitching.  I tried to stick to simplicity as any bling I would add would  make it more girlish...LOL  So at the end, I really love it!  Simple and clean.  This card is entered into this challenge:

Okay friends, let me know what you think about this card.  I love making encouragement/scriptural cards.  For me, it gives more than just a greeting...It actually gives hope to people who are otherwise prone to giving up.  I am not ashamed of sharing my faith in Christ since accepting Him in my life and having a personal relationship with Him is the best thing that ever happened to me.  Love to hear your amazing stories of faith.  Please share...
