One More Easter Card

This last Easter card is a little more "religious" so I wanted to highlight it. I stamped the Alleluia background in brown onto the gold cardstock card. Trimmed a rectangle of lavender overlapped by a subtle pink and green printed paper which I corner punched and added lavender pearls. I stamped the cross in brown onto cream cardstock, cut out and adhered with foam dots. I highlighted the swirls in the cross image with a glitter pen. I added pansy flowers and glittered their centers with yellow Stickles. I highlighted the lavender cardstock by edging it with the glitter pen also, then I stamped Alleluia in black ink.

Miles of Smiles,

HI Melissa,
I'm so sorry for you at the loss of your beloved pet.
I just watched you demo how to make paper flowers at Above Rubies - your talents are impressive. This Easter card is beautiful! I was wondering if you would share how you made the pansies? Did you cut them free hand - you are very talented with the scissors. Also how did you textured the cross and where you purchased the Alleluia stamp.
I'm looking forward to seeing more of your designs!
Be well,
Bernadette

Bernadette,
I would have emailed you directly, but you're email didn't show. First thanks for watching my video! Now to answer your questions: the pansies are 3D stickers from Jolie's. The cross & alleluia stamps are from a set of the $1 Studio G stamps (at Michael's & JoAnn's). The cross stamp has the swirl pattern in it and I went over it with a glitter pen. Hope that helps! Thanks for visiting my blog!
