Christening Day


These cards were unbelievably easy to make. My ladies will recognise this cross, as they made something very similar in one of my workshops.The cross is cut from silver mirri card and laid over a very simple background of a paper strip and velvet ribbon. Although they are aimed at babies they could be made for an adult too just by changing the backing paper, maybe a script or damask print paper.
Recipe as follows:
Card- 7x5" tent fold
Backing paper- DCWV
Ribbon- from my stash
Brads- Papermania
Cross- Wedding Solutions cart, cut in silver mirri with contrast cut at same size with blackout enabled. Silver cross is raised on foam pads on top of contrast cross.
Baptism- All Mixed Up
We also made this cross as a topper for a Sympathy card but used smoky grey cardstock for backing the cross and added an artificial Calla lily behind the bow.
Hope you like it!

Sorry about the strange position of the pink card but the 'O' had fallen off the 'On' and I can't find it!!!!
