Sentiment from Stampin’ Up Lift Me Up. Stamped bee on regular card stock and on vellum. Hand cut the vellum version, so the wings would stay solid, and applied it to the card stock one.

He is risen

Another Easter card using the Stampin’ Up Easter Message. Stamped cross with drape, and colored with Spectrum Noir markers. Fussy cut it to glue to another sheet of cardstock, just to give it a little dimension. Stamped sentiment with versamark on vellum and heat embossed with black embossing powder. Stamped the palm leaf and fussy cut it before adhering it to the cardstock. Then I took white crochet thread and colored it with the marker to match my other colors. I did find one on Pinterest that I cased.

Just a note…

This year’s Easter card is made using dies from Gina Marie Designs for the sunrise and three crosses. The sentiment of Happy Easter is from Hero Arts and the sentiment at the top is from the song, “Up from the grave, He arose”

Sending you prayers

Yet another sympathy card. For this card, I dragged the ink cubes across the cardstock. I then stamped it with stamps from the Stampin’ Up Wetlands set. I had to stamp another Canadian goose and cut out his body because the background bled through and his body was not white. The sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp. I die cut Prayers on white card stock and four times and glued them together to get the depth.

Prayers are with you
