Psalm 118:24 - SIWS14

This week's focus verse in the Say It With Scripture Challenge over at The Sweet 'n Sassy Connection is near and dear to my heart. Psalm 118:24, "This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it."  I remember my dad quoting this on Sunday mornings as he was getting ready for church. I never hear or read this verse without thinking of him.  It's a memory that brings encouragement on days that are more challenging {we WILL rejoice and be glad}. It also is helpful on days that are going well because it's a reminder that the Lord made this day.  Either way, it's a great reminder of both Dad and the Lord's goodness.

I used a pearl flourish as a stem for the flower.

The sentiment panel is made from a petite scalloped oval layered on a Fancy Tags 3 tag that I cut in half and the sentiment itself is on a Labels Four Small.

The card design was inspired by a sketch by Valerie Salmon of Got Sketch? that I found on Patter Cross' board on Pinterest.  I changed up several elements but it was my starting place.
