It's hard to believe that Easter is almost here. The temps here in the desert are rising, and we've already had to use the air conditioning a few times. My parents in Minnesota, however, are still getting snow storms. So, is it really Spring? I guess it all depends on where you're located. Nonetheless, Easter is soon upon us and I'm ready for it. Creative Worship Stamps always has the perfect stamps and products to help me create something special. This month's NEW Release is, once again, absolutely wonderful. Today begins the Creative Worship NEW Release March Instagram Hop where you can WIN a $25 gift card to spend at Creative Worship Stamps. And we all know that they have the BEST and coolest stamps out there. What a FAB prize. Just head over the Instagram to get started.
This card started with basic ivory cardstock that I layered with some pretty patterned papers from an older Carta Bella line called Spring Market. I used the Stitched Rectangle Dies to cut the largest rectangle (the floral print) and then I cut two tags using the NEW Stitched Tag Dies. I stencilled the two tags using the lovely NEW Damask Pattern Stencil. The colors of Tim Holtz Oxide Ink that I used to stencil were the Spun Sugar and Peeled Paint. I absolutely love this soft sweet damask pattern.
Next, I used the lovely NEW Goodness of God Stamp Set for the sentiment. The circular tag is surrounded by a wreath that was cut using the Lovely Wreaths Dies. Over the stencilling, I stamped a postal image using the awesome Going Postal Stamp Set. I also used this same stamp set at the bottom of my card. The small tabs that I added to the right and left of my center image were cut using the Tabs Tickets & More Dies, and I stamped the words Happy Easter on the left tab using the Wordfetti Mashup Stamp Set. This sweet little stamp set covers almost every occasion you could ever think of needing.
The finishing touch on my card was a pretty bow tied with Forst Green/Cream Gingham Ribbon. As I mentioned, this month's new release is FAB; but I also want to mention the literal hundreds of amazing stamps, dies, stencils, inks and all the amazing products you'll find at Creative Worship Stamps. Be sure to stop by and check out ALL that awaits you. There's also loads of great inspiration on the Creative Worship Stamps IG Page. Thanks SO much for visiting me here today. I'm always so super grateful to have you stop by to say hello. And don't forget about the Instagram Hop and the $25 prize.
