Faith or Despair but not both

The quote I usde in my page today was in the Triple the Scraps challenge Scripture Lessons and Lyrics lesson 3 and its just so true.  If you have a heart full of faith, there won't be room for despair. 


I really like how this page turned out.  I wanted to do a green and pink page so brushed acrylic paint around the page but then I scraped the paint with a credit card and got a really fun texture.


I wanted a bit of shimmer so sprayed Cosmic Shimmer Meadow Lush and Rose Pink, but the Rose Pink bottle had a hole in it and I got these ink splats - real accidental ink splats :)

 

I added an Indigo Blue Script Stamp in black and a Hero Arts circles border in green, plus different size bottle caps in white acrylic.


So there's lots of layers of different type circles:


I typed out faith lots of times, printed and then cut out the hearts:


and outlined in charcoal:


I really liked the different effects of the paint scrapes and splats and spray:

 

Next time I start worrying about something, I will remind myself of this quote - I will not worry but trust God!

    I love this page and the quote. I know first hand about faith and despair. When I had to have brain surgery people would comment that I didn't even seem worried about it. I told them worrying would not do any good. It was up to God and I had every faith that I would survive....and here I am 13+ years later!

    That's a gorgeous background you've created, Susan Carol! And I love the way the hearts get bigger, just as our faith grows as we continue to trust God and not worry.
