Easter Wishes

Hello Everyone:  The next few weeks we will have the pleasure of sharing some Easter cards with all of you made by Chari Hogsett.  Here is the first!

Chari used stamps from Creative Impressions set number Y562.  She first stamped the cross on a scrap of lavender cardstock and cut it out, then adhering it to a piece of black cardstock, cutting it into a slightly larger mat.  A piece of Lavender 1/4" Glimmer Ribbon 70256 was draped over the cross and the piece was set aside.

"Easter Wishes" was also stamped on a scrap  piece of lavender and matted with a slightly larger piece of black.  A small Lavender Felt Flower from Small Felt Blossoms and Leaves Pastel (62001) was created with a White Mini Round (90111) and adhered to the lower left side of the sentiment.  A small White Paper Fastener from our Pastel set (90667) was then adhered to the top right side of the sentiment.  Using small wire cutters, the prongs were cut off of a purple Mini Round (90192) and it was adhered to the center of the metal flower brad.  This piece was then adhered towards the bottom of the cross.

Chari used a darling heavy weight patterned paper for the card and then adhered a piece of metallic mesh from her stash over the top.  The cross was then adhered over the top of the mesh.

Beautiful card!  Thanks for sharing, Chari!
