Creative Worship Stamps Vintage Thanksgiving Cards

Hey there friends!  I'm so happy to have my first stamp set released this month!  I designed the Faith Definitions for Creative Worship Stamps.  The set includes faith, grace, love, forgiveness, salvation, reconciliation and hope.  They are great for cardmaking, scrapbooking and Bible journaling!  

I used them to make the background on this card.  First I dipped my panel in Antique Linen DI and stamped the leaves from Casey's Peaceful Botanicals set.  Such a pretty stamp!  I watercolored the leaves loosely, then stamped the hope definition over it in Rusty Hinge that I off stamped and spritzed with water before stamping.

I folded a strip of torn vellum around the panel then adhered the Praying for You die cut, which is from the God is Near set.  I really love these!

For my next card, I used the stamp of the month, Thanksgiving Pumpkins.  I colored them a blue/green, inspired by the pumpkins at my local farmers market this year.  I made a background using Distress Inks in Antique Linen and Speckled Egg, then sponged over it with Vintage Photo and SE through the Circle Pattern Stencil.  

I added some stamping from the Vintage Snippets, the script and the months.  The acorn is from The Colors of Fall stamp set.  

I was really enjoying using the Circle Patterns Stencil.  I made an inky background with Peeled Paint, Gathered Twigs and Rusty Hinge, then smashed my embossing ink through the stencil and embossed with Distress Glaze in a light color.  Then I dipped the panel back into Gathered Twigs to make the dark pattern.  Such fun!

I layered the Thanksgiving Pumpkins over another inky panel stamped with the Faith Definitions.  I finished with a little tag and a loopy bow from Sari ribbon.

Here's a closeup of that yummy background...

My final pumpkin card is a little dramatic!  I was digging through old ink pads and came across Cranberry Adirondack, so I made an inky panel with it and layered with colored Thanksgiving Pumpkins.   

The leaf portion is from The Colors of Fall set.  I fussy cut around the leaves leaving me with two pieces from the one panel.  Between the two, I tucked an embossed sentiment in solid cardstock.  I splashed the panels with metallic watercolor paint.  

Friends, I wish you a very happy Thanksgiving and pray you always remember the Giver.  Let our hearts be full of both thanks and giving.  xx, Autumn

Handmade Christmas Gifts with Stamps and Stencils

 

Hi friends!  I have two more cards to share with you from the October new releases at Creative Worship Stamps.  For my last couple of projects I wanted to use my stamps for handmade gifts.  This first one really makes me happy and I hope to make a few more.  I purchased some wood slices on sale at Hobby Lobby and stamped the nativity scene from O Holy Night onto one with black gesso.  

The stamping wasn't perfect due to the texture of the wood and paint, so I used a small brush to touch up areas.

I attached a jute twine hanger and added a sari ribbon bow, then attached the ornament to a card base with a jumbo glue dot, so it can easily be removed.  For the card base, I used more green Distress Mica sprays to make a background along with the Star Pattern Stencil I designed for CWS.  I layered with some gold music score.  I cut a green tag from a piece of clean up paper and sponged it with the Star Pattern Stencil.  I love how impactful the pattern is on the small tag!  I overstamped with a sentiment from the O Holy Night set and looped more twine from the tag around the ornament hanger.

For my second handmade gift idea, I made a rainbow of tags using Distress Inks.   

I stamped the beautiful Nature Silhouettes 3 set onto each panel, then cut them into tags.  I sponged through the Lots of Dots stencil and layered with the new Happy & Hugs die set.  

I hope to attach the tags to goody bags, stuffed with sweets.  I hope each recipient will feel the love that went into them!  Make sure to check out all of the new releases at Creative Worship Stamps today!

Faith Filled Handmade Christmas Cards

 

I was visiting with a friend and we had a play with Distress Mica Sprays.  I used a couple of greens and water to create a green background, which I spritzed through the Circle Pattern Stencil using a deep red.  

I stamped the Lantern Light stamp with Vintage Photo Distress Ink and watercolored with the same, mixed with Hickory Smoke.  I stamped the candle in Lumberjack Plaid and the flame in Fossilized Amber and watercolored with the same.  I stamped the bow in black for a pop and watercolored with Rustic Wilderness and Peeled Paint.  I finished by stamping a sentiment from the Best Gift Ever stamp set onto a scrap and curled the edges.

My next card features the Stars stencil I designed for Creative Worship Stamps.  It's my first product design and I'm a little giddy!  :)  

I made an inky background using Fired Brick and Peeled Paint Distress Inks.  The second background was made with green Distress Mica Spray, then monoprinted with the Stars stencil.

I tore the stenciled piece and layered, then stamped with the We Three Kings stamp set.  I added an embossed sentiment from the Christmas Wordfetti set.  

My final card also uses my new Stars stencil.  I made an inky background with Faded Jeans Distress Ink and sponged through the Stars stencil in the same color. 

Then made a little “snow globe” using a circle die and stamped it with the distressed music stamp from the Texture Tiles 1 set. I stamped the nativity from O Holy Night over that. 

I finished with a sentiment from the We Three Kings set.  I hope these Christmas card ideas inspire you today!  Check out all of the beautiful new releases at Creative Worship Stamps today!

Faith Based Stamps Handmade Greeting Cards

 

Hi sweet friends!  I'm back with fresh inspiration for you using beautiful new products by Creative Worship Stamps, formerly Sweet 'N Sassy Stamps, a wonderful faith based stamp company in the States.  I'm delighted to get to use some of the new releases this October.  For this first card, I used the brand new Peace & Grace dies. 

I made an inky background using Distress Oxides in Faded Jeans and Peacock Feathers.  I sponged over it with more Faded Jeans through the Bold Bloom stencil. 

I stamped an inky tag made with the same colors with a beautiful blossom from the Nature Silhouettes 4 set and finished with a simple word stamp from the new Wordfetti Mash-ups. 

For my next card, I used the new Vintage Snippets (rulers) and Peace & Grace Word Dies again.  I made an inky background using Vintage Photo and Gathered Twigs Distress Inks and stamped the rulers, cutting them out to use on different projects.  

For my background, I made an inky panel using Rustic Wilderness and Vintage Photo, then stamped the rulers again in Rustic Wilderness.  I layered a torn hymn page over this for contrast.  I made a third inky panel with Antique Linen and stamped it very lightly to further add the distressed look with the Vintage Elements (label).  I attached the Peace die cut and a cutout flower from the Botanical Collages set and finished with a twine bow.  The verse was added with a fine liner pen using my handwriting.

My last card for today is a bright and cheery birthday card.  I used the gorgeous Be A Wildflower stamp and die set and colored the flowers with my Zig markers and water. 

I made a little vase by cutting a Sharpie striped rectangle and rounding the bottom corners. 

I sponged the Circle Pattern stencil with Distress Oxide in Peacock Feathers onto a white background  panel.  I stamped the greenery in Twisted Citron.  

I added the new Happy & Hugs die cut in pink and  the birthday word from the new Wordfetti Mash-up stamp.  I hope it makes you smile today!  Make sure to check out all of the beautiful new release products at Creative Worship Stamps!

Creative Worship Stamps Handmade Card Ideas

 

Hi everyone!  I'm back with a new round of inspiration for you featuring beautiful faith art stamps by Creative Worship Stamps, formerly Sweet 'N Sassy Stamps.  For my first card, I enjoyed dipping a Bristol panel in Distress Inks in Peacock Feathers and Blueprint Sketch.

I stamped the gorgeous sentiment from the Hymn Word Art set in VersaFine Clair Warm Breeze and decided to have a little birdie carrying the word banner, so I stamped the bird from the Nature Silhouettes 4 set and drew some little ribbons around the banner he's holding.  I finished by stamping some of the floral silhouettes from the same set along the bottom in black and used a Posca paint pen to highlight them a little.  

For my next card, I repeat stamped the flowers from the Colors of Fall stamp set, fussy cutting one of the images.  I watercolored the flowers with deep magenta and warm oranges, then the background with olive.  

I stamped the 1 Corinthians 13 text stamp from the With Love stamp set in Antique Linen for texture at the top and on a separate piece I had also watercolored olive green.  I stamped All My Love from the same set onto that piece and mounted it with a wrapped twine bow. 

You may have seen the bee from this Botanical Collages stamp set in my last post.  I'm going to work through each image in the set.  For this card I focused on the bird, isn't he sweet?!  I watercolored him and cut the panel into an upside down tag.  I mounted over a piece I had embossed with aqua embossing powder using the Delightfully Delicate background stamp and then dipped into Distress Inks in Evergreen Bough and Antique Linen.  

I mounted the tag over a die cut Delicate Doily.  I just love this die!  I really hope these cards have inspired you today and you'll take a peek at the gorgeous stamps from Creative Worship Stamps.  xx, Autumn
