He Is Risen

Hello Blogger Friends! Thanks for taking the time to stop and visit with The Charmed Life Blog today.

 

It was a beautiful Spring day here in Pittsburgh. A perfect day for a baseball game and that's where I was this afternoon. My grandson plays on his school team. They lost 5-4 but for me it's just great to be at the game and watch him play. He has another game tomorrow and hubby and I will be there. It's a bit of a drive through rush hour traffic but we feel it's important for us to go.

 

Now let's move onto my card for today. This one I made for the sketch challenge #741. Carey was the hostess and she gave us a great sketch for our cards.

 

I created an Easter card using a new CottageCutz die "He is Risen Cross". I cut it from Stampin'-Up "gorgeous grape" cardstock. The "Risen" phrase is also part of this new die.

I went with the Spring colors of mint macaron and gorgeous grape for my card. The background designer paper is from the Stampin'-Up "frosted floral" collection. It is part of their Fall - Christmas papers but I think it works well for my Easter card.

I masked off the sentiment stamp to use only the words "He is". Added a few mint macaron enamel dots to complete my card.

 

That's my card for today. So until next time...…..God Bless
