Simple Easter Card with Stampin'Up Crosses of Hope
April 09, 2019
Today we're going to create a lovely Simple Easter Card with Stampin'Up! Crosses of Hope. I realized that Easter is only two weeks away and I need to get my Easter cards created and mailed out very soon so I needed one that looks lovely but doesn't require a lot of work...so what do you think?
The triple oval layer is quick and easy alternating the colors add a tremendous amount of interest with very little effort. I used the simplistic cross because of the speed of the die cutting and little in the way of intricate cuts. The stamping in the background gives the illusion of designer paper with just simple ink and cardstock.
