Today's technique challenge was to use Washi Tape to mask off a white space for our sentiment on a one-layer card. I've got Christmas on my mind, since I have a Christmas card class coming up soon.
Sadly, Stampin' Up has made only very modern Jesus stamps for Christmas in recent years, so I use my stash of the wonderful retired Jesus stamps that they used to make. However, I combined the retired stamps with a very up-to-date use of the Work of Art stamp set to make the background.
This could easily become an Easter card with a change of colors and the focal image.

Stunning! I'm going to have to CASE this one! I make cards for the shut-ins and sick at my church - this would be perfect. My stamp will be different and possibly my colors.

Into my favorites. I feel a case coming on. I have that stamp and I love the cross you made with the tape. Absolutely fabulous.
