Stamping with Julie Gearinger: Stamp Simply 2023 Fall/Winter Release- Pray Without Ceasing

Hi Friends!

This week at the Stamp Simply blog, the Stamp Simply Design Team have been sharing cards from the new 2023 Fall/Winter Release.

My card features the new Pray Without Ceasing stamp set, Praying Hands Die Set, the new Carta Bella A Wonderful Christmas 6x6 paper pad along with lace, twill ribbon and an embossing folder!

If you have not had a chance to check out my Sister DT cards yet, I hope you will do so- wonderful inspiration from all!

To create this card:

Trim a piece of the burgundy designer paper from the A Wonderful Christmas 6x6 paper pad to approx. 4” x 5 ¼”.

Emboss the designer paper panel with a Quatrefoil embossing folder, lightly sand with a sanding block before adhering to a piece of white cardstock (approx. 4 ⅛” x 5⅛”).

Layer a piece of the white Venise lace onto the card panel.

Layer a piece of black ribbon twill over the lace, wrapping the ends behind the panel.

Adhere the card panel to a 4 ¼” x 5 ½” piece of black cardstock and mount onto a white card base.

On the poinsettia circle cut-a-part from the A Wonderful Christmas 6x6 paper pad, de-static the paper with an embossing powder tool, ink the sentiment from the Pray WithoutCeasing stamp set with Versafine Onyx Black ink, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Once the embossing has cooled, die cut the panel with the smaller square die from the Praying Hands Die Set.

Die cut a piece of black cardstock panel using the larger square die from the Praying Hands Die Set and mount the embossed panel onto the black square.

Mount the panel onto the card front using dimensional foam.

Ink the Pray WithoutCeasing hands image with Versafine Onyx Black ink, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Watercolor the image with water-based markers. Die cut with the coordinating die from the Praying Hands Die Set.

Mount onto the card front using dimensional foam to finish off the card.

As many of you who follow my blog know that I enjoy playing along with online challenges. I am linking this card to the Word Art Wednesday #617-#618 "Anything Goes" Challenge.
