God Is Faithful

Hello Sweet 'n Sassy friends! 

It's Ceal, here. Today I am sharing a card made with one of our new releases, Shiplap Background. I am a sucker for any faux wood stamp and this one is perfect. It is a 6x6 so a great size for backgrounds.

To create this card I started with a white top folding card base and a kraft panel for the background. I stamped the Shiplap background on a kraft panel using walnut stain ink and ten it out with an oval die. Next I stamped the sentiment from the Faith Phrases set and embossed it in white.  I stamped the floral image from the God is Faithful set which I love, colored it using Copic markers and cut it out with the coordinating dies and popped it up with some foam tape around the outside edge of the oval.

Trust In The Lord

  Hello Sweet Friends!  Sheri here today with a card featuring the NEW Faith Phrases stamp set from the February 2021 Release. 

 

For today's card I wanted to make the focal point the sentiment so I created a CAS (clean and simple) layout. I wanted to add some texture to the background panel so I dry embossed the NEW Delightfully Delicate stencil. This technique is super easy but the sandwich to use in your die cut machine can vary. I love the subtle texture the stencil adds. I them added a few strips of pattern paper and used the Made New die to create my own embellishment.

 

Embossing Sandwich:

 I use a Sizzix Vagabond 2 machine which I believe is also the same for the Sizzix Big Shot: (bottom to top) Cutting Platform (open on tab2), Cutting Plate, Stencil, Card Stock, Embossing Mat, Embossing Plate. You may need to add shim(s) depending on your machine. If you are using a different die cutting machine, please refer to your owners manual for proper sandwich. You may also find it helpful to search YouTube for proper instruction.

Card Measurements:

White A2 Top Fold Card Base: 4 1/4" x 11", scored at 5 1/2"

Green Layer: 4" x 5 1/4"

Red Pattern Paper Strip: 1" x 4 15/16"

Happy Stamping!!

Faith Phrases Set

 You know those stamp sets that beg to be made into a set of cards? Sweet N Sassy's new Faith Phrases set is one of those for me...

For my project today, I grabbed some watercolor paper, a couple of stencils, Brusho watercolor powder, and just had fun making bright backgrounds that I could then add my Faith Phrases to. It was a lot of fun and now I have a set of cards I can send out or give as a gift (my mom has been asking for some cards to send to her friends...hmmm - a Valentine gift maybe?)

I backed each background and sentiment with a coordinating cardstock and added a few gems to finish them off. Here is the full set.

Here is each card individually.

I hope you love these like I do and are inspired to create a set of your own!

Thanks for stopping by!
