Sierra's First Communion

On Sunday, August 2nd, 2020, my granddaughter, Sierra Catherine, made her First Holy Communion at St. Patrick's Irish Settlement Catholic Church. This is the card I made for her. Although everything on this card is retired, it is some of the retirement stamp sets that I will be keeping as these are hard to come by. I used the Hold on to Hope stamp set and Cross of Hope dies along with the Stone 3D embossing folder.

Beautiful World

I played around this afternoon with the Beautiful World stamp set and dies and made this Fancy Fold card with a belly band. I love this stamp set and the Designer Series Paper that goes with it is strikingly beautiful.




Here are the dimensions:
  1. I used a piece of Whisper White thick cardstock cut at 11"x 5.5".
  2. Score at 1 1/4", 5 1/2" and 9 1/4". Use a bone folder to get a good crease.
  3. You will cut 3 pieces of Designer Series Paper. One is cut at 5 1/4" L x 4" W. One at 5 1/4" L x 1" W and the last one will be 5 1/4" L x 1 1/2" W.
  4. I cut the bellyband at 11" x 1 1/4" in whisper white and the DSP was 11" x 1". I glued the 2 pieces together and then scored at 3" and 7 3/8" so it made a nice fit around the card.

Celebrate Sunflowers

I saw a sunflower like this on Demonstrator Planning Place made by LeAnne Pugliese so I had to give my version a try. I used Mango Melody as a background and inked Pumpkin Pie on the Buffalo Check stamp. 
I used Crumb Cake for the base and Mango Melody was ran through the embossing machine using the Tin File embossing folder.
