God bless You Card #1

Today is my Daughter's 21st birthday. I thought her smile in this photo was very pretty.
























Created this card with all Stampin' Up products except for Fiskars corner rounder punch which is same size as SU corner punch & Cuttlebug D'vine Swirls embossing folder.

Card can be used for First Holy Communion, Confirmation, Wedding or as a Thinking of You Card.
 
Stamped cross on white cardstock. Cut the cross & mat for cross with Framelits Window Frame. Stamped sentiment on white cardstock. Punched out sentiment with SU Extra-Large Modern Label. Punched out sentiment mat with SU Extra-Large Decorative Label. Embossed white base with D'vine Swirls embossing folder to complement the swirls on the cross stamp.

Photographed the card with a framed photo of my daughter when she made First Holy Communion.
