The Courage & Faith Stamp Set has wonderful, vertically oriented, sentiments. I stamped “May the Lord bless you & keep you , Numbers 6:24” in Memento Black Ink on Basic White Cardstock, and used a Something Fancy Die for cutting. I used the same die a second time to cut Moody Mauve Cardstock, which I cut in half, and glued to the back of the sentiment label, giving it a narrow, side border of color.

“May the Lord bless you”

Next I cut three flowers, using Paper Florist Dies, to place around the top of the sentiment. They were created with Basic White Cardstock for the petals, Lemon Lolly Cardstock for the centers, and topped with Iridescent Rhinestones. I curled the petals with a Bone Folder prior to gluing them together, and placing them on Dimensionals.

I created the background with one of the Artistic Mix Decorative Masks. It was fun using this stenciling technique with Moody Mauve Ink, Flirty Flamingo Ink, and a Blending Brush. While smoothing on the color with the Blending Brush, I held the 4″ X 5 1/4″ Cardstock in place with my hand, but you could secure the mask with tape, to a larger piece of cardstock, and cut it to size. 

After gluing the stenciled layer to a Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″, my card was complete.
