ODBDSLC232 Cross of Christ

Hi Again Stampers! 

Here is the second card that I created last night reflecting on the sacrifice that Christ made for each of us, the free gift of His Salvation and the celebration of our Risen Lord and Savior!!

I used a retired Our Daily Bread Designs set (the cross image is still available) and this is my second card entered into the Our Daily Bread Designs ODBDSLC232 Anything Goes! Challenge as well as the Splitcoaststampers USEIT2015 Challenge (I have had this stamp set for years and have not had a chance to ink it up yet).

If you have not had a chance to do so, I hope you will find the time to visit the ODBD site- they always have gorgeous Design Team samples and wonderful inspiration from their gallery!

To create this card:

Using Memento™ Tuxedo Black Ink, stamp the nail cross image from the ODBD set, He Is Risen stamp set onto Whisper White cardstock. 

Color the image using Smoky Slate and Cherry Cobbler Stampin’ Write markers.
Carefully cut out the cross image and set aside.

Stamp the sentiment onto a piece of Vellum using Memento™ Tuxedo Black Ink.

 Allow the ink to dry and cut out the sentiment along with a piece of Whisper White cardstock for the backing frame using the Big Shot™ with the MFT Stitched Rectangle die. 

Mount the vellum sentiment to the Whisper White Stitched frame using Two Way Glue.

Trim a piece of ODBD Chalkboard Collection paper to 4” x 5 ¼”, adhere a piece of Vellum to the front of the Chalkboard Collection paper and mount onto a piece of Basic Black cardstock.

Use the retired Photo Corner Punch to punch out several corners from Basic Black cardstock (I trimmed a few by hand to be smaller than the punch), adhere the corners to the card front along with the sentiment and add the Pewter Brads.

Mount the vellum-covered Chalkboard panel onto the Cherry Cobbler card base.

Add the “fussy-cut” cross using Stampin’ Dimensionals® to finish off the card.
