Rejoice!

Hello, dear friends!  Thanks for stopping by today.  I'm super excited to start sharing the NEW October Release available now at Creative Worship Stamps.  These new stamps, dies and stencils are SO super sweet.  There are so many fabulous cards being shared this month by my talented teammates.  You can see all the wonderful inspiration on the Creative Worship IG Page.  The card I'm sharing with you today was so much fun to make.

I used a piece of white cardstock as my card base, and I rubbed it with Vintage Photo Oxide Ink.  Onto the edges of that, I stamped some of the ruler images found in the AWESOME NEW Vintage Snippets Stamp Set.  That created my card base.  Next, I used a piece of vintage sheet music to cut the musical background using the wonderful Stitched Rectangle Dies.

I used another piece of white cardstock that I rubbed with Cracked Pistachio Oxide Ink.  Once again, I used the ruler images found in the NEW Vintage Snippets Stamp Set to make my rulers.  I cut various width rulers to create my branches.  I did the same thing with the Vintage Photo Oxide Ink to create the tree trunk.  I splattered the rulers with a bit of acrylic paint, and I also attached some rusty jingle bells to the branches of my Christmas tree.

At the top of my tree, I added a star using the darling NEW First Christmas Stamp Set.  I also used this same stamp set for the smaller yellow stars at the top of my card as well as for my sentiment(s) which say Rejoice!  If you don't treat yourself to new stamps and goodies often, I'll say that this month's release is a great time to just go ahead and treat yourself.  These new products are SO super sweet.  In the photo below, you'll see that I also created a matching Christmas gift tag.  I'll tuck it inside the card.

Thanks so much for visiting me here today.  You can always find my cards on my IG Page as well, and I'd LOVE to have you Follow me there if you will.  I always appreciate your visits, and I enjoy hearing your thoughts about my art.  Have a wonderfully creative week, everyone.

Blessings,

Karen
