We Love Because He First Loved Us


Hi Friends!

I designed this quick Easter card using the Craft Consortium Ink Drops paper strips remaining from the previous set of four cards in my last post (I like to try to use every last bit of designer paper- hate wasting that gorgeous paper)!  





I enjoy playing along with online challenges and will be linking this card to the Use Your Stuff #479 Paper Strips Challenge along with the Tic-Tac-Toe #TTTC199 Featured Designer Jeanie Challenge (bottom row across Spring-Emboss-DSP). This card was designed using strips (see above) and the cross was embossed as well as the sentiment. I am also playing along with the Simon Says Monday “Emboss It” Challenge.



This card was quick and easy to put together-
   

The strips are from the Craft Consortium Ink Drops paper (the new Sunset and  Rose 6x6 paper pads), the cross was die cut and embossed from the larger cross from the Stamp Simply Steel Dies- Crosses.

The sentiment from Farmhouse Scriptural Quotes was stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.

The card was finished off by mounting onto a white card base and applying shimmer with a clear glitter pen to the cross.



Another fairly flat card for mailing and I am thrilled to have been able to use every inch of the 6x6 paper!

I hope you have time to check out the rest of the projects from the Stamp Simply Design Team as well as the other challenge sites– fabulous inspiration by all!
