COMFORT CARD

Hello!

Love this Bible verse!  It reads: 

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” It was spoken by Jesus to the crowds, and can be found in the book of Matthew, verse 28.

I really took some artistic license with this cotton plant ! I meant to color it in shades of gray for shadowing.  The base layer started out okay with an ultra chalky white version of grayish blue, but I really grabbed a ridiculous blue for the second layer of shading and here we are :o)
