Welcome by my blog today, friends. I'm so glad you're here as I share a sweet card and tag set that I created using some of the NEW Release items from Creative Worship Stamps. This is one of my most favorite releases yet, and each product in this month's release is nothing short of FABULOUS. I used some kraft cardstock and kraft tissue paper to begin this shabby chic card and tag. Please excuse the fact that I took a lot more pictures (5) than I normally do (3). Oh, and don't miss the Instagram Hop at Creative Worship Stamps where you can WIN a $25 gift card.
I cut my base using the FUN NEW Postage Stamp Cover Die and some pale creamy pink cardstock to cut the focal layer. I know that I am going to absolutely LOVE this NEW Die, and that I'll be using it a lot. Because I don't yet have the gorgeous new Stencil, I used the Delightfully Delicate Stencil along with several colors of Tim Holtz Oxide Inks to rub on my pretty pastel background.Oh, by the way, I spilt some brown paint on my first card attempt, so I scrapped that and cut another Postage Stamp Die to begin again. I did save the "oops" project, and I ended up and used some of the remaining pieces to create a matching tag. This is why I always try to encourage myself and everyone else to never completely give up on a project when you "mess up"; but instead, somehow make it work for you.
The tag was hand cut by eye (not a die-cut) from the same kraft cardstock. I pieced together the scraps, and I used the cool NEW Tabs, Tickets & More Dies to add some fun journalling tabs and extra accents where I could place more of the hearts that I cut using the cluster of hearts found in the new Postage Stamp Dies. I die-cut most of the hearts using scraps from the previously stencilled paper. The NEW Tabs, Tickets & More Dies are perfect for using up those paper scraps in a cute and useful way.
I used the new Rectangles & More Stencil to add lots of pretty pink hearts and green leaves/ foliage. I used the Going Postal Stamp Set to add the circles, postal sentiments, etc. The sentiments I added (Thinking of You, With Love) are found in the NEW Flowering Branch Stamp Set. The big cool & sign is found in the NEW Tabs, Tickets & More Dies. The word prayer is found in the Blooming Tulips Stamp Set. Yes, I do realize that I used a lot of different Creative Worship products on this set.
Some of the remaining random items I used on this card/tag set include vintage scotch tape, acrylic paint, copic, kraft tissue, Scor-Tape, 3-D Adhesive Tabs, hand cut tag, Baker's Twine and Natural Burlap String. For everything else, you can find so many amazing products at Creative Worship Stamps. Not only can you find all the supplies needed to create this card/tag set, but you can find the perfect stamps, images, sentiments, scriptures and events you can ever need....and more. Come by and see what's new at Creative Worship Stamps. And don't miss our May IG Hop for your chance to WIN.
I'm playing along here:
Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge - Simon Says "Use a Stencil" - I used two new stencils from Creative Worship Stamps.
Stencil Fun Challenge Blog - May: Use A Stencil and Optional Bouquet. I used two different Stencils on this fun card. I didn't quite add a Boquet, but I do have some flowers.
