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.

Stamp Sets: ODBD He Is Risen

Ink: Memento™ Tuxedo Black, Stampin’ Write Markers- Cherry Cobbler and Smoky Slate

Paper: Whisper White, Basic Black, Cherry Cobbler; Vellum, ODBD Chalkboard Collection

Thanks again for visiting- I hope all of you have accepted Christ’s free gift of salvation and have a fabulous Resurrection Sunday!!

Nautical "Hi"- A Color and Sketch Challenge :-)

Hi Stampers! 

I had a chance to create another quick card for the PalsPaper Arts PPA236 Sketch Challenge (I flipped the sketch on its side) along with the Colour Me! CMCC54 Challenge.

The colors reminded me of a Nautical Theme so I decided to pull out one of my favorite current sets, Traveler and create a slightly masculine card :-)

Again, if you not have already visited either site yet, I hope you will find the time to do so- wonderful ideas from all!

 

To create this Clean and Layered (CAL) card:

Use the Big Shot™ along with the Stylish Stripes Textured Impressions™  Embossing Folder to emboss the Pacific Point striped piece of retired High Tide Designer Series Paper (DSP).  Trim the panel and mount onto a piece of Pacific Point cardstock, trim once more and mount onto the Real Red card base.

Add the vertical panels created from Maritime DSP mounted onto Pacific Point and Real Red cardstock strips.  Add the center strip of Pacific Point cardstock.

Stamp the ship image using Pacific Point Class Ink onto Whisper White cardstock, color using an AquaPainter™ with Pacific Point Classic Ink and add more detail with the Stampin’ Write Pacific Point and Real Red markers.

Trim the focal image panel and mount onto Pacific Point cardstock, trim again and mount onto Real Red cardstock.  Add the Real Red Photo Corners (created from the retired Photo Corner Punch trimming the corners to scale) and the retired Silver Brads to the corners.

Stamp the banners using Real Red Classic Ink onto Whisper White cardstock and punch out using the Banner Punch.  Add the banners to the back of the focal image panel.

Adhere the focal image panel to the card front using Stampin’ Dimensionals® to finish the card.
