blessed are those who mourn...

I made this quick card this morning for the Lord have Mercy Tuesday sketch challenge. I love Mercy's sketches and this one is wonderful in its simplicity. The verse I used is from the With Heartfelt Sympathy stamp set from Our Daily Bread Designs. The message oval was cut with my coluzzle cutting system and gently sponged around the edges.What I used:
ODBD With Heartfelt Sympathy
very vanilla, chocolate chip card stock
My Minds Eye Bella, Bella designer paper
chocolate chip classic stamp pad
coluzzle cutting system
wide chocolate chip striped ribbon
jumbo vanilla brads
double slot punch
sponge
