Sure of What We Can’t See

Welcome to the start of a brand new week. I hope you enjoyed a restful weekend. We had gorgeous weather in our area for the Palm Sunday weekend and spent a fair amount of time outside enjoying it. Any my allergies would certainly concur!

As we embark on Holy Week this week, we’ll be using our crafty stash to make cards appropriate for the occasion. And today’s card aptly pays tribute to Palm Sunday as the entirety of Easter season reminds us that we have an everlasting hope in what we cannot see!

We get started on today’s card with a base of Pecan Pie cardstock. The focal panel background consists of two panels cut using the Textured Notes dies. The main panel is a quarter sheet of Smoky Slate that is machine embossed with the Distressed Tiles embossing folder and then the mat is a sheet of the gold mercury vellum. Our focal image is a two-parter. The cross is cut from Early Espresso using the Faith Collection dies and that’s mounted on top of the coordinating palm branches that are stamped tone-on-tone onto Mossy Meadow before being diecut with the coordinating die. A twist of gold thread behind ties our gold elements together nicely. The sentiment from Unbounded Love is stamped in Early Espresso on white cardstock and then diecut with the Autumn Leaves sentiment banner. A few low profile dots around the focal section draw the eye in.

I hope you’ll follow along this week as create Easter designs.
