Communion Cross

This is another card I made for some First Communion participants at my church a little while back.  I wanted to make them fairly simple since they were for boys so I used a Night of Navy background that was embossed with the Softly Falling folder to start with.

Then, I cut out a circle with the Stitched shapes framelits and two crosses with the Cross of Hope framelits.  The background cross is cut from Wood Textures designer series paper and the top one is cut from Gold foil sheets.  My sentiments come from the Inspired Events stamp set.

First Communion

My niece recently had her first communion and I wanted to use the Cross of hope framelits and Inspired events stamp set on her card.  I made another version of the card to give to the boys who also received their first communion and will share that another day.  

First, I colored the background with Stampin' Blends and then added my layers over the top.  The Crumb Cake colored cross was die cut from the middle of the large Crumb Cake circle behind it.  Before I did the die cutting, I embossed the circle with the Basket Weave folder (SAB 2018).  

Supplies:

Inspired Events

Pear Pizzazz, Perfect Plum, Early Espresso, Crumb Cake ink

Stampin' Blends

Baptism Blessings

I really was excited to see the Inspired Events stamp set in the Catalog and Idea book when it came out.  There are lots of times when I need cards for baptism, confirmation, etc. and this set will come in very handy for that!

I chose to use some Delightful Daisy designer series paper in my background as well as a Lace doily and some rhinestones for accent and texture.

Tulip Baptism

One day recently I put together a couple different cards for Baptisms, the one I am sharing with you today uses the Tranquil Tulips and Inspired Events stamp sets along with some Delightful Daisy designer series paper.

I decided to match the tulip colors to the designer series paper so I went with Peekaboo Peach and Calypso coral for the petals and Tranquil Tide for the stems.
