The Lord is My Light

Hi Friends!

Today I am sharing an easy card designed with the He is the Light clear stamp set, Craft Consortium Ink Drops Ocean 6x6 paper along with dies and other supplies, all from Stamp Simply.   

I absolutely love the Craft Consortium Ink Drops paper and the Ocean pad is one of my favs (FYI- I do own alcohol inks but this paper makes it so easy to create cards without all of the mess of the inks)!

I also love the Heis the Light Bundle- the lighthouse, other images and sentiments are perfect for masculine cards as well as summer cards for everyone.  Plus the coordinating dies make it so easy to die cut those beautiful images!

As many of you who follow my blog know, I enjoy playing along with online challenges and I will be linking this card to the Word Art Wednesday #591- #592 “Anything Goes” Challenge.

If you have not had a chance to check out the inspiration from the Stamp Simply Design Team or the Word Art Wednesday Challenge site, I hope you will take the time to do so- gorgeous inspiration from all!

This card was another fairly quick one to create-

The background is a piece of the Oceans Ink Drops paper trimmed to approx. 4” x 5 ¼”, mount onto a white card base.

Add a piece of cheesecloth on an angle to the card front.

De-static a piece of white cardstock, ink the sentiment and lighthouse image from He is the Light with Versafine Onyx Black ink, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Die cut the lighthouse with the coordinating die (die-cutting an additional plain one from white cardstock) and the sentiment using one of the banners from the FishtailSentiment Banner Dies.

Trim the sentiment banner and adhere directly to the card base.  Add a few aqua rhinestones to the top of the banner.

Watercolor the lighthouse with water-based markers, mount onto the plain die cut lighthouse before adding to the card front with dimensional foam.
