Our Youth Pastor got a calling to the church where he grew up in Michigan. I told him since we were from Michigan I can understand why he had to go back :) We will miss him dearly he has been with us for 7 years and not only was he good with the youth but he was also there for us.
I took the Spellbinder die and left the brown base flat but then cut the next size down out of pattern paper and then shaped it so that it looked like a book that was open. I don't know how well the sentiment stickers show up against the pattern paper, I guess I should have colored them gold also to match the cross.
Spellbinders - Labels 7 and Cross collection dies, using Tim Holtz metallic paper
BasicGrey - Periphery paper
Stamp on it- sentiment sticker
Hope you all have a wonderful week ahead,
Thanks so much for stopping by today,
Connie
