Salt Challenge - Perseverance
Our Salt Challenge this week is from Hazel. Please take a minute to read her thoughtful write-up on the Salt blog. The verse we used this week is Hebrews 12:1 "Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us."
As I sat and thought about what to make for this challenge I began thinking of people that I've had the pleasure of knowing over the years, people who have endured hardships and trials, who have "run the race" faithfully. Then I decided to make a card to encourage someone who I know is currently enduring. Often, just knowing someone is praying for you is such a comfort and helps you to continue on.
The stamps used are from Innovative Stamp Creations who so generously contributed to our door prizes at Stamp New England. Betsy was so sweet to add send this set for me to try out and I'm so sorry it took me this long! The set is called Delicate Roses and it's just beautiful! I went monochromatic which is something I don't do very often but I thought it would work well with these delicate roses. The sentiment is from Tag Lines by Gina K Designs - the perfect one for this card!
Please go see what the other dt members have done on the Salt blog and also on their own blogs. Have a wonderful day!
