He Has Put a New Song in Our Hearts

by 17 comments

 

I opted to go with darker colors today and I’m using an older Cuttlebug Folder, but a classic – Swiss Dots.  I think that I use Swiss Dots more than the rest.  The main card is layered with blue shimmery cardstock and is popped up over a card base that is Fabriano Acquarello Watercolor paper.  I cut a square frame using a Sizzix die cut and masked the sentiment line by line to stamp it around the square.  Stamped the ornate bird, cut it out and popped it up in the center of the frame.  I then punched a strip with a border punch then manually embossed design and embellished with pearls.  Lastly I embellished the top card corner with a piece of velvet ribbon.

 

Thanks so much for stopping by! 

Supplies:
Stamps: Stampabilities – Song in our Hearts, Ornate Bird
Paper:  Fabriano Acquarello Watercolor, The Paper Company
Ink:  Versamagic – Night Sky, Red Magic
Accessories: Ribbon, Pearls, Fiskar Border Punch, Sizzix Square Frame, Lasting Impressions Border template

    Oh my gosh! Another really gorgeous card!!!!! I just bought that stamp last week and haven’t had a chance to use it yet, but I love the way you used the bird with all those embossing folders. My new border folders should be arriving today :D, can’t wait to use them, and you have provided a lot of inspiration with yours :). Your cards are alway amazing! Yours is one of my favorite blogs :).ReplyCancel

    Your work is most inspiring. I have all the tools and materials, but haven’t been doing any crafting for the last year or so. I’m bookmarking your website so I can keep that inspiration going.

    Thanks to my friend, Barbara, for passing on your link.

    That card is so amazingly stunning. I love every aspect about it.

    One question.. where do you get your waterpaper from? I use gp and I saw once that you changed.

    ThanksReplyCancel

    Becca…I tried to locate The Paper Company for the watercolor paper but I’m not sure which wed site is right. Could you tell me?? Are they in Canada…are you in Canada?
    I’m in Oklahoma….yeeeehaw! I love this card and the layers just make it special. I agree with you, that Fiskar border punch is gorgeous! I love the sentiment….God HAS put a new song in my heart….PTLReplyCancel

    Becca, you have made another outstanding card. Every detail is incredible. If I ever received a card with the details that you put into it, it would have to be framed! :)ReplyCancel
