She Is Clothed in Strength & Dignity: Proverbs 31:25 in Coquette Blush

The coquette version of Proverbs 31:25 keeps only the first half of the verse, She is clothed in strength & dignity, and sets it in dusty rose italics on cream. A small peony with sage leaves sits under the words, and a fine double frame with tiny corner ornaments runs around the page. It is soft and girlish on purpose, made for a teen bedroom or a dorm desk and for confirmation gifts, and it matches the other Sage & Blush coquette prints in the shop.

A short phrase from Proverbs 31:25 for a young woman

The full verse says that strength and dignity are her clothing and that she can laugh at the days to come. This print keeps the first clause and lets it stand as a statement about who a girl is becoming. The clothing image is what makes it work for a teenager: strength and dignity are something she puts on each day, the way she chooses what to wear, and she keeps them on when circumstances change. The line comes from the closing poem of Proverbs, the portrait of a capable woman whose worth is set far above rubies. A confirmation or a first semester away from home are times when that picture of steady confidence is worth hanging where she will see it every morning.

Dusty rose italics, a peony and a double frame

Everything on the page is small and light. The reference Proverbs 31:25 sits near the top in tiny spaced capitals in warm taupe. The phrase follows in a dusty rose italic serif, broken over four lines with the ampersand on a line of its own, then a short hairline rule and a little peony in soft pink with sage green leaves. A fine double frame in the same rose tone traces the edge of the cream paper, with small ornaments at each corner. In the Sage & Blush coquette set this is one of two cream designs with a frame, the other being James 1:17, and the two make a natural pair when they hang side by side.

Teen rooms, dorms and confirmation gifts

This is the print for a room done in blush and cream with soft florals. It sits well on a dorm desk in a thin gold or white frame, or above a bed in a gallery of pastel prints. As a confirmation gift it gives a young woman words from Scripture that she can grow into, and a framed 4x6 or 6x8 tucks easily into a gift bag. If you are planning a whole wall, the same design appears in the Sage & Blush coquette set of nine and in the 27-print coquette bundle, so you can start with this single print and add the others later without a color mismatch.

Thirteen ready-sized files

The download is one ZIP with thirteen JPG files at 300 DPI, each already sized for a common frame: 4x6, 8x12, 12x18, 16x24 and 24x36 in the 2:3 shape, 6x8, 9x12, 12x16 and 18x24 in 3:4, 4x5, 8x10 and 16x20 in 4:5, plus 11x14. In-between sizes such as 6x9, 10x15, 20x30 or 15x20 print from the file of the same shape. The rose frame lines are thin, so print at actual size on matte or satin paper and avoid fit-to-page, which can trim one side of the border. An 8x10 at home is the quickest route, and a photo counter handles the larger sizes.

Frequently asked questions

Is this the whole verse?

No, it is the first half in a short modern phrasing, She is clothed in strength & dignity. The full verse in the King James Version reads, Strength and honour are her clothing; and she shall rejoice in time to come. Would you like the verse in the King James Version? Email support@theframedverse.com after your order and KJV files follow at no extra cost, usually within 24 to 48 hours. Your download is not affected.

Which file keeps the double frame even in an 8x10?

Use the 8x10 file from the 4:5 group. It matches the frame exactly, so the rose border sits at the same distance from every edge. For an 11x14 frame use the 11x14 file, and for 16x20 the 16x20 file. Printing one shape into a frame of another shape crops the border on two sides.

How does it differ from the peony Mother's Day print?

Both show a peony. The Mother's Day print has the heading A Mother's Blessing, brown serif capitals and the full verse. This coquette print uses only the short phrase, in dusty rose italics inside a double frame, and belongs to a family of teen and dorm prints.

Which prints match it on a wall?

James 1:17 is its closest twin, also cream with a rose double frame and a small flower. Philippians 4:13 adds a dark sage contrast with a cream bow. The Sage & Blush set of nine brings all of them together with gingham and striped designs, and the 27-print bundle adds pink and blue versions.

Can I print a small copy for a confirmation card?

Yes. The 4x6 file prints well on cardstock and fits a photo card or a small frame, and a printed copy given as a gift is covered by the personal license. Sharing the file itself, or printing a stack for a whole confirmation class, needs permission first through support@theframedverse.com.
