Share Little Sweet Cards
The Story Behind The Little Scripture Cards
This is how my Bible looked. Just trying to read was distracting. I was dreaming of something more. . .
My inspiration came from this . . . lots of open space, easy to read, clarity, and the addition of art. . .
I like to start my morning with a cup of coffee and read a Bible verse.
Nevertheless, most mornings are crazy the moment my feet hit the floor. Can you relate? And no matter how good my intentions were, I wasn’t consistly reading my daily Bible verse. Coupled with when reading, I had to work against a hodgepodge mess. I had a growing assortment of notes jotted on torn envelopes, colored ribbons, sticky tabs, and brass point markers—stuck in-between or on many pages. Sadly, I confess to Bible clutter!
My style is simple and neutral with a French twist, so clutter isn't the signature look I want. But here I was, embarrassing myself. I had to do better!
While looking at a torn-off card sentiment, I got an idea for my little scripture cards! My perfectly square cards took on a life of their own! All things French seem to work their way into my life. So it’s no surprise I used French watercolors to add a French-inspired illustration to each little card. They’re big enough to read and small enough to tuck into a briefcase, planner, purse, insert into a desk photo holder, mail to a friend, give to a co-worker, and the list goes on . . .
And there it was, my solution, voilà! No matter where I was, I had a selection of little cards with God's words of hope, grace, truth, encouragement, peace, and trusted promises.
I began sharing these little cards with family, friends, and even strangers who keenly peered over my shoulder. Now, I want to share my sweet scripture cards with you. I pray they bring you daily access to God’s word and provide you encouragement, joy, and peace.
