Stamp Simply 2023 Fall/Winter Release- My Church

 

Hi Friends!

This week at the Stamp Simply blog, the Stamp Simply Design Team have been continuing to share cards showcasing the new 2023 Fall/Winter Release.   

My card this week features the My Church Stamp and Die bundle set along with the new Worship and Praise stamp set and two different Ink Drops 6x6 paper pads from Craft Consortium- Candy and Organic.  

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

To create this card:

For the sky, trim a piece of the Candy Ink Drops paper to 4” by 3.5” and adhere to the top area of a piece of white cardstock (approx. 4 ¼” x 5 ½”). 

Using the hill dies from the My Church die set, cut a few hills from white cardstock and set aside.

Using the tree line die from the My Church die set, cut a few tree lines from a piece of green Organic Ink drops paper and adhere to the card front (overlapping some of the trees).

Add the first hill die cut, covering the bottom of the trees.

De-static the lower left area of the bottom hill area with an embossing powder tool, ink the sentiment from Worship and Praise stamp set with Versafine Onyx Black ink, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Add this hill die cut to the card front (overlapping the first hill layer).

De-static another piece of white cardstock with an embossing powder tool, ink the church image from the My Church stamp set with Versafine Onyx Black ink, apply clear embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Once the embossed image has cooled, water color using distress inks and die with the coordinating My Church die.

Mount the church image onto the panel with dimensional foam and adhere to a white card base.

Finish off the card by adding “snow” with a white paint pen and coloring the bell in the tower with a gold marker.

CAS Christmas Cards- Set of 4

 

Hi Friends!

This week at the Stamp Simply blog, the Stamp Simply Design Team have been sharing quick and easy Christmas cards.  

I love the Craft Consortium Ink Drops paper collections and thought that the darker green patterns in the new Organic Ink Drops 6x6 paper pad would be perfect for Christmas cards.

I paired the paper with the background stamp from the Jesus stamp set along with gold mirror cardstock for a set of quick cards that are relatively flat for mailing.

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

To create this card:

Trim a piece of the Organic Ink Drops paper to 4” x 5 ¼” and layer onto a 4 ¼” x 5 ½” piece of gold mirror cardstock. (FYI- I die cut a rectangle out of the gold mirror cardstock before layering the ink drops paper onto the cardstock.  That rectangular die cut is large enough to use for layering the sentiment.  The organic ink drops paper covers up the die cut so you can not even tell and this stretches the mirror cardstock so you can use every single inch, lol! Plus lightens the weight for mailing, win, win!).

Mount the entire background panel onto a 4 ¼” x 5 ½” white card base scored at the top (for an easel style card). 

De-static a piece of white cardstock with an embossing powder tool, ink the background stamp from Jesus with Versamark ink, apply gold embossing powder and heat set with a heat tool.

Once the embossing cools, trim the sentiment panel and mount onto gold mirror cardstock (using the pre-die cut rectangle from the background panel (noted above)- trim close to the edge.

Directly mount the sentiment panel onto the card front to finish off the card.

Quick, easy and flat to mail!  Maybe I have inspired you to create a set of quick Christmas cards?
