Familial Group #3

Welcome!

I'm back again today with another group of cards.  This group was all made the same, as I liked the design.  It also uses an new-to-me stamp and die set.

The sentiment is full-sized, with a matching die that is quite unique.  While the die portrays a cross, it is only the ends of each point that cuts and flares.  I used a piece of matte gold paper, the same as the frame, to back the cross points.  I should've grabbed a photo of the underlying gold, but I forgot - sorry!  The edges were lightly ink blended with a deep purple, and the inside sentiment stamped with the same ink.  I used a small strip of double-sided tape, rolled it into a small tube and placed it behind the "flap" to ensure lift, even after the mail.  Yep, these have been mailed as well.

Since these are in their first outing, the card will go to NBUS #85.

If I'd have thought sooner (doh!), I could've used marigold and entered it into Marcia's purple and marigold Color Hues challenge!

Supplies:

   PTI - Reflections:  John 3 stamp & die (NBUS)

   PB - Classic Frames

Again, thank you for the visit and I hope all of you are looking forward to Easter!

Hugs,
