The Empty Cross

Here is the second Easter card. I called it “The Empty Cross” because that is what is it.
Once again I used Easter Message on page 19 of the Occasions Catalog. I love the greeting in this stamp set.

Cut the cardstock as follows: Very Vanilla 8 1/2 x 5 1/2, 5 1/2 x 4 1/4
Gold Foil—5 1/4 x 4

Stamp the Cross image with Jet Black Stazon on the 5 1/2 x 4 1/2 Very Vanilla and die cut with the Layering Ovals Framelit die. Color the cross using Crumb Cake and a blender pen on the wooden cross. Use a little Wisteria Wonder with a blender pen to shadow the cloth that hangs on the cross then I went over that same area with the Wink of Stella. You can use your Wink of Stella like a blender pen but I have found that it leaves glitter in the stamp pad and if you multiply that times 60 people you end up with more glitter than ink.

Use the Layering Oval Framelits to cut the gold from the 5 1/4 x 4 sheet and the “scrap” can be used for the layering on the card. Put it between the vanilla card base and the Elegant Eggplant. Inside the card I used the “He is not here’ He has risen.” greeting.
