Design Team Thursday: HYMN LINE STAMPS!!

Hello friends!
I hope you are taking some time this week to reflect on what our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ has done for you on the cross, paying your sin debt and making a way for you to be adopted as a child of God!  What a blessing...what amazing grace!

We will have our next new stamp release next week, as we are celebrating Easter Weekend with our families!  All orders placed in the meantime will be mailed out first thing Monday morning! 

Today the very talented Inspired Stamps Design Team has created some lovely cards using Inspired Stamps from our etsy shop at: www.etsy.com/shop/GodblessyourART
Kary is up first with this fabulous card using HYMN GIRLS: SITTING RIGHT :

 Deneen (what an amazing scene with HYMN GIRL: October and one of our 2x2 Single Scriptures!!  I can almost feel the wind blowing, can't you??)

 Chere is up next with our best selling HYMN GIRL: MARCH

 This great card Jamie made using one of our 2x2 Single Stamps and a bird from our HYMN LINE called HYMN: GIRDS AND TREES:

 And this precious gem is from Shanta, using our HYMN GIRL: NOVEMBER

Have a blessed Easter and we will be catching back with our CARING CARDS posts on Tuesday!

Block Christmas Card: Day 4 + NEW PAPER PACK!!

Hello friends!
Today I have a fun card for you that I will be sharing a tutorial on next month during our 12 Weeks of Christmas Card Tutorials that the Design Team and I will be sharing with you!  For today, I want to show you this Christmas Card that shares the Gospel with all who see it!  I am always certain to include a space for a family photo when I want the card displayed by the receiver (those never get thrown out!) and that is true for this card that shares the love of God in His gospel of Jesus Christ! 

The front of the card looks like this:

I used Inspired Stamps:  HYMN GIRLS: MARCH, CHRISTMAS POINSETTIA (for the phrase here, the holly/ivy, the word believe on the inside, and the 'Greetings from our home to yours), plus the gospel 1 CORINTHIANS 15:3-4 inside, and one of the stamps from the MADE BY... stamp set on the back.  I used a brand new BOBUNNY 6x6 PAPER PAD that will be in the online store starting THIS WEEKEND called CHRISTMAS COLLAGE!

Here's what the card looks like when you open it up:

 Notice you don't see the LOVE until you continue opening...

I used Inspired Stamps' most popular alphabet, ELEGANT DOTTY ALPHABET, for the word LOVE here!

Here's a photo of the left side:

Above is a close up of the right side where I will put a Christmas photo and have my family sign the part under the sentiment!

On the back of the card I was sure to use the MADE BY... stamp which reminds the recipient of this card that I made this just for them, and am praying for them, too!!  I will sign it right before I send it!

I hope you have enjoyed the start of our daily Christmas Cards Showcasing Inspired Stamps so far!!  I'll be back tomorrow with another card!

Blessings,
Antoinette
