Happy Easter (again)!!
I needed one more card for
Easter so I decided to use the Freshly Made Sketches FMS79 Sketch along with
the colors from the CQC182 ColourQ Challenge (since I had those colors still
out and embossed parts from the previous post).
Again, if you have not had
the time, check out both sites for wonderful examples and inspiration!!
To create this card:
Using the Embossing Buddy®,
de-static a piece of Whisper White cardstock and stamp the image from Crosses
of Hope using Versamark™ ink. Apply
Stampin’ Emboss® Early Espresso Embossing Powder and heat with the Heat Tool. Once cooled, color with the Stampin’ Write markers in
Pool Party, Wisteria Wonder, Lucky Limeade and Always Artichoke and carefully
cut out.
Use the Big Shot™ to emboss
a piece of Whisper White cardstock with the Lacy Brocade Textured Impressions™
Embossing Folder (difficult to see in the photo). Cut the Whisper White embossed cardstock with
the 2 ½” Circle Punch and layer onto another 2 ½” Circle punched from Early
Espresso cardstock.
Adhere the cross with Mini
Glue Dots and add the rolled flower with the leaves (flower was created with
the 1 ¼” Scallop Circle Punch and the leaves are from the Bird Builder
Punch).
Add the Wisteria Wonder and
Lucky Limeade DSP layers (previously embossed from the last post and lightly
sanded to expose the white core). Layer
the ribbon and embossed Vellum per the sketch, add the ribbon bow, sentiment
and Pearl to finish off the card.

Thanks for the tutorial, I wondered how you colored the leaves against the dark cross. Totally awe inspiring :). We're in between church services this morning, and I just might slip into my craft room & try it out instead of napping! Have a great day!
