Happy Sunday Everyone!! I hope you are all having a great weekend! We are all recuperating and still fighting the flu.  It feels good to be a weekend and have some down time.

Today I am popping by to share the new Stampin Sisters in Christ challenge.  This week's host is Peggysue!

Peggysue chose the verse: Exodus 8: 9-11
           And Moses said unto Pharaoh, Glory over me: when shall I intreat for thee, and for thy servants, and for  thy people, to destroy the frogs from thee and thy houses, that they may remain in the river only?
       . And he said, To morrow. And he said, Be it according to thy word: that thou mayest know that there is none like unto the LORD our God.
 And the frogs shall depart from thee, and from thy houses, and from thy servants, and from thy people; they shall remain in the river only.

Peggysue challenges us to use the color green somewhere in your creation.

                  This is a sympathy card I created for a dear friend who recently lost her husband to a sudden heart attack.  I used the Upsy Daisy Stampin UP set and the sentiment is created with Sincere Salutations (also from SU).  My SU supplies have been so neglected I just had to use a lot of my retired dp, inks and ribbon.




 The colors on this card are soft sky and certainly celery.  The ribbon is retired Wild Wasabi.  The dp is retired Wintergreen from SU.  The embossing folder is Spots from Provocraft.

 For more inspiration for the Stampin in Christ Challenge, please visit my dt sisters:
Grace, Linda, Lisa, Peggysue, Randi, Meisje, Rebecca, and Patti  
 
For the full devotional and challenge details please visit the Stampin Sisters in Christ Challenge.

What a pretty card. The blue and green are beautiful together and I love the embossed white paper. Great layout and I like how the bow is as much a focal point as the main image. Glad to see you back at Sugar Creek Hollow.
