It's hard to believe that we are already celebrating this special day. And a special day calls for a pretty card!
There is a no stamping on the front of today's card.
It was created with 3 different die sets. By layering elements, I created a beautiful focal point. The only stamping is the inside sentiment.
The cross is made by combining 2 dies from the Cross of Hope die set, and the gorgeous detail piece on the bottom is from the Jubilee Beauty dies from the 2020 January-June mini catalog. Word Wishes is a die set which covers all holidays. It is a staple for every stamper's studio, and works perfectly on this Easter card.
There is even a coordinating stamp set to Word Wishes called A Wish for Everything, which allows you to create endless custom holiday sentiments by combining stamped and die cut elements. The great news is when you purchase them together, the bundle is discounted!
To create the cross, I placed the thin cross inside the larger cross and ran it through my die cutting machine together, creating this delicate element.
To create this card:
- Cut a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of Purple Posy cardstock, score at 4 1/4" and fold
- Cut a 4" x 5 1/4" piece of Purple Posy cardstock and emboss with the Subtle embossing folder
- Die cut a cross, the sentiment, and the detail element piece from Purple Posy cardstock
- Die cut 3 fronds from Crumb Cake cardstock
Adhere embossed layer to card front, then add detail element to bottom of card front. Color cross with Wink of Stella glitter brush, then wrap a piece of Purple Posy linen ribbon around cross and tack in place with glue dots. Adhere cross to card front with dimensionals. Tuck fronds behind cross and adhere in place. Add sentiment and a linen thread bow to cross. Embellish with pearls as desired.
Thank you for stopping by today!
Wishing you and your family many blessings!

Welcome back to the Color Fusers blog hop for the month of April. I hope you are well, and are finding the silver lining in each day. I am enjoying spending extra time with my husband and children without the day-to-day chaos that 4 children and 2 working parents brings. What are you enjoying most? Please share in the comments, I would love to hear your silver lining!
I really enjoyed this month's color challenge. The colors flow together nicely, and were easy to work with.
As the current catalog is soon coming to a close, I pulled out items that have not gotten enough love. This designer paper is simply gorgeous! It comes in 3 colors with beautiful patterns printed on each color. I had not thought to use it for a card base until now. It works perfectly!
And for whatever reason, I have not even inked up Botanical Bliss yet. This set is lovely. It was one of my favorites when it launched.
I pulled in some great die sets and a punch to round out today's project.
To create this card:
- cut a 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" piece of Noble Peacock designer paper and score a t 4 1/4"
- Cut a piece of Soft Sea Foam cardstock 3 1/4" x 2 3/16"
- Die cut a medium scalloped rectangle from Vellum cardstock using the Stitched So Sweetly dies
- punch 2 sprigs from Balmy Blue cardstock
- die cut 5 branches from Granny Apple Green cardstock using the Botanical Tags die set
Adhere the Soft Sea Foam layer behind the vellum scalloped rectangle and adhere to card front. Stamp sentiment in Soft Sea Foam ink on Whisper White cardstock, fussy cut and adhere to rectangle. Die cut 'friend' in Granny Apple Green cardstock using the Well Written dies and adhere beneath sentiment. Stamp bird in Blueberry Bushel ink, color with Wink of Stella, fussy cut, and adhere sitting on word. Arrange die cut branches and punched sprigs behind rectangle and adhere in place. Color a piece of metallic trimmed ribbon with a Soft Sea Foam Blends marker, tie in a bow, and adhere to rectangle. Embellish as desired with None Peacock Rhinestones. Stamp inside sentiment in Soft Sea Foam ink.
Stampin' Tip: Use your Blends markers to color white ribbon, making custom colors for any project!
