Happy Easter Holy Cross

Happy Monday!! I hope you had a wonderful weekend!! It's my turn to post on the Die-Versions Blog and I have a card with you using a couple of dies from the Newest Release. Don't forget to use the code lisa15 to receive 15% off your regular-priced Die-Versions order.


I know I say this about every new release, but this one is my very favorite ever!! The Whispers Holy Cross die is so beautiful. You can't tell in the picture, but the cross is covered with Crystal Ice Glitter from Sparkle N Sprinkle. I popped it up with foam tape for dimension. The papers are from Prima.


I used the new Whispers Stitched Nesting Circles for the sentiment. Happy is a Sweet Wordlet die. Easter is from My Craft Spot (no longer in business). The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts and the gorgeous ribbon is from Little Scrap Pieces. The button is a Wee Petites Button die.


I tried to get a close-up of the amazing sparkle. I am entering this in the following challenges:

1. Simon Says Stamp Work it Wednesday - Something New (Dies)
2. 2 Creative Chicks - Anything Goes
3. Pause, Dream Enjoy Linky - Anything Goes
4. Word Art Wednesday - Anything Goes


Thanks so much for stopping by!! Have a great day :)

  1. Wow, is it that time already? tee hee. This is beautiful Lisa. I love that fact that you used these dark rich tones, it's such a switch from the pastels you normally see for this holiday. I love the stitched edges, it's a small detail, but it adds so much to the design. What a stunning Easter card, you rock every holiday you design for!! hugs :)

  9. Stunning! The purple is the perfect accent and the way you've tucked little details here and there make this card so special. No one can "glance" at your projects - each one requires very close attention so you don't miss a thing! Simply beautiful.

    1. It's a fabulous die, and it's rare to find the religious themed items like this. I had seen this die and because I already had so much in the cart, didn't add it. You've used it most magnificently with these seasonal colors, and of course the aged patina look of the white with those fabulous layers. And as always, the lush, rich elegance of the ribbon bows & flowers. I was just thinking I need to start on some Easter cards. One of the most beautiful I've seen. TFS & Hugs
