This week at Word Art Wednesday, we have TWO amazing sponsors - One is Really Reasonable Ribbon and the other is Paper Sweeties. Our theme is always Anything Goes, and we would really love to have you stop by to play along with us for the chance to win these awesome prizes.
Here is the card I made using this week's free scripture/word art from Deuteronomy 16:17 which speaks of giving. The meaning behind this verse is that when we are faithful to give back generously with ALL that God has given us, then He will bless us with even more. And when we keep our blessings for our own selfish gain, then we can't sit and wonder why we may not have all that we "think" we should have. God will always continue to pour out His blessings on us when we are faithful to give liberally with what He has blessed us with in our lives.
Here are the challenges I'm entering with this sweet little card:
