My Scars Tell a Story PNG Faith Shirt Design with Ornate Cross and Religious Text
This My Scars Tell a Story PNG is a single religious text lettering design with an ornate filigree cross, delivered as a transparent PNG file for sublimation, DTF and print-and-cut projects. The quote “Son of God, my scars tell a story…” is set in bold gothic display type with a script accent, in black, red and white on a white background. The artwork pairs a decorative lettering block with an ornamental cross, so it works as a faith gift on shirts, mugs and tumblers. Each word of the quote is set in its own line, with “SON OF GOD” and “MY SCARS” leading the block. You receive one 300 dpi PNG with a transparent background, ready to place on your project. Because the lettering is high contrast, it reads clearly from a distance on a finished piece.
Design breakdown
The design is a square, single-sheet artwork built around a decorative lettering block and an ornate cross with filigree scrollwork. The lettering reads “SON OF GOD”, “MY SCARS”, “TELL A STORY”, “THEY ARE A”, “reminder”, “OF TIME”, “WHEN LIFE TRIED TO BREAK ME” and “BUT FAILED”, with the word “reminder” set in a script accent. It uses three colours: black for the main lettering and cross outlines, red for accent elements, and white for the background. The file is cut in 3 layers, and the fine filigree details are best cut at 4 inches or larger. Layers can be separated for multi-colour vinyl or printed as one full-colour sublimation image.

How to use
Download the zip file from your order and unzip it to a folder on your computer. Open the PNG in Canva, Adobe Photoshop or your sublimation software, then import it into your design layout. For vinyl or DTF, check the size on screen before printing, and keep the transparent background so only the artwork prints. Resize the image in proportion to avoid distorting the lettering. Print a test on scrap material first to confirm the fine filigree looks right.
