Asian in the round

I am very late for this week's Tuesday Teapotters challenge at SplitCoastStampers.  I only got a bit of the theme - using Scripture, but I am sure to have dessert - an Asian inspired card.  We are sending encouragement to a woman of South Korean origin who is suffering from a rare terminal brain tumor.  For the following sketch I decided to go with a round card, cut by my Vagabond machine - you can see it is slightly connected to the back of the card.  I have not tried cutting through the double thickness - worked like a charm.  So that is a new technique for me.  I have had this Asian cs (DCWV) for several years - kind of forget to use it.  It is nice to have several coordinating patterns.  The bg circle is a mauve metallic cs.  I had cut the scalloped card base in white, then decided it was too stark, so I chalked the edges with SU Perfect Plum.
