Praying Gelli Plate Circles

Praying Gelli Plate Circles


I made three sympathy/praying for you cards last week. For all three cards I used the sentiment from SU set Flourishing Phrases. I love this sentiment because when one is going through a difficult time, or time of loss, it is so powerful to know that people are thinking of them and praying! For this one I used a gelli plate and stencil to create the background. I smooshed the distress oxide inks in picked raspberry, ripe persimmon, worn lipstick directly onto the gelli plate and then used a brayer to roll over them. I then placed the circle stencil on the gelli plate and sponged the hickory smoke distress oxide ink over the stencil, removed the stencil, and then pressed the paper down on the gelli plate. (I removed two images from the gelli plate, this may have been the second removal) For the flower from Stampers Anonymous Flower Garden, I diecut the flower, then used distress crayons to color the flower, and followed with stamping the image on top.

I love this sentiment because when one is going through a difficult time, or time of loss, it is so powerful to know that people are thinking of them and praying! For this one I used the distress oxide inks on watercolor paper, spritzing with water to bring out the effect. For the flower from Stampers Anonymous, I first used distress crayons to color the flower and then stamped the flower image on top.

Dress Up Flip Card







I missed the original Flip Card craze - so this was my first one. What fun!

To make the card, start with 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" cardstock. Score at 4 1/4" and again at 2 1/8". Center framelit on 2 1/8" score line and cut only half of the framelit (see below). Fold card in half and run through big shot with Moden Mosaic EF. Cut Dress Up framelit 4x - two in Pool Party and two in Basic Gray; emboss with square lattice. Fold at 2 1/8" score line. Cut gray piece and glue to pool party piece. Glue one completed dress to each side of flip.





To make the flower rosette, I punch 7/8" scallop cirlce out of Square Lattice embossed piece of Pool Party. Cut in a spiral and then beginning at the outer spiral edge, rolled the flower. Secured bottom with a glue dot.
