Clean and Simple Christening

This will be a quick post today, as I have quite a lot of work to do ready for school tomorrow.  I though I'd share a clean and simple Christening card that I made for an acquaintance of mine.  It's safe to share now as the card has been received by the family.
I started with a 14.8cm x 14.8cm white card blank.  The font and sentiment stamps are from the Christian Celebrations stamp set by Woodware.  They were stamped onto a piece of Sheena's stamping card (13.8cm x 13.8cm) using Onyx Black Versafine ink and heat embossed using clear powder.  The image was coloured using distress markers and a water brush and then the whole piece was matted onto a piece of co-ordinating paper from the Happy Watercolour design pad (The Works), trimmed to 13.8cm x 13.8cm.  It took a little while to get everything exactly right, but I was really happy with the final clean and simple result.

Confirmation Congratulations

I am really grateful to Dr Sonia SV for sharing her template for this card which can be found on her blog HERE.  I have made a few of these cards over the years for special occasions.  This one is for a friend who was received into the RC Church at the Easter Vigil yesterday and also celebrated Confirmation and First Holy Communion.  Congratulations!
