Belle Papier {pretty paper}

This card is an Easter card for my mom. Not your traditional card I know, but I just loved this celery patterned paper from Prima…one of my favorite colors and it just really reminds me of the fresh new greens of spring. I just love Spring…the way the bulbs and grass and trees seem to sprout from a deadened state and come to life again. Here they are all buried under some late snow but I know they are just waiting to spring to life. I added the sentiment of Faith as to me, that is what Easter is all about. Faith in God, faith in the finished work of Jesus Christ…the hope we can have in Him. I read a church sign-board while driving past the other day…. Faith is not a leap in the dark, but a step into the light. I just love that quote! I’ve been thinking about it since.

This card is a 5.25″ square card made from whisper white cardstock. I once again used the Fresh Blossom stamp from Stampendous…you’ll be seeing more of it…I just can’t stop using it! The image is stamped in Black Stazon and then watercolored with Certainly Celery and So Saffon ink. The stamens are dotted with my Signo white gel pen for highlights. The Making Memories brads were spaced out with my Stampin Up paper piercing template and then inserted into the pierced holes. The darling celery dotted ribbon is by May Arts and was purchased from Starlitstudio. The beautiful patterned paper is from the Romance collection by Prima and was purchased from Jacksonbelle. The faith sentiment is a rub-on…love how quick and easy these are to apply! It is from a beautiful set from Royal & Langnickel.

I hope you are all having a wonderful Easter weekend! Sorry this is posted later than my norm….busy day! We went and had a great visit with my mom today and then came home to some server problems. Finally have things up and going again. I’m glad to be back! {{{{{{{{{{Hugs}}}}}}}}}}}
