Ribbon Inspiration/Stamp Simply Style – Easter

Welcome to another Saturday of Ribbon Inspiration/Stamp Simply Style.  This week the design team girls are creating some Easter projects.  Easter will be here before we know it, that’s for sure!  And what a wonderful time to share God’s word and the ultimate sacrifice made for US.   Here’s the card I made:

I used Easter Blessings clear stamp set by JustRite.

My card is a standard 5.5″ x 4.25″ and fits into an A2 Clear Box for protection and presentation.

The cardstock used is SU Lavender Lace.

The designer paper is Kaisercraft’s Lilac Avenue — available as a single pad or as a full KIT.

All layers are mounted using 3D Foam Squares for elevation.

Sentiment and frame were stamped with Versa Mark and embossed in white.

Dies made by Spellbinders:  Nested Oval Medallion Labels Die, Classic Ovals

The Nested Oval Medallion Labels Die was made specifically for JustRite to coordinate with this and other JustRite sets.

Ribbon is 100% Silk by May Arts in 1.25″ Lavender

Bows were made using the Original Bow Easy

Flowers are Fairytale Roses by Prima in Buttercup

Spellbinders Die:  Fancy Tags One

Ink:  Versa Fine Onxy Black

Bling:  Kaisercraft Pearls in Snow White and Lavender

With a highly embellished outside I always like to add a little designer paper to the inside for balance.

All items used are available at The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store, as linked above.
