Prayers for the Day

I am in love with this new set from Hanna Stamps, "For The Soul." For this card I used a base of Basic Black and overlayed a layer of vellum that I used one of Martha Stewart's scallop border punches on. I used Ranger Alcohol Inks on glossy paper and blotted the colors. I let them dry and stamped the stained glass window on top of the colored parts of the paper. I cut out my two favorite windows and used them as the background for Hanna, who was cut out and placed in front.

I used the Swiss Dots folder from cuttlebug for the background paper and added some flowers and fern branches (also from Martha).

What I really wanted to highlight in this photo was the candleholder I decorated, but I could not get a great photo for anything! In real life it truly sparkles, though. I stamped Hanna images onto clear acetate with StazOn and carefully cut the images out. I chose a votive holder that had straight sides and attached Hanna images with very tiny amounts of red sticky tape. Then I covered it all in a big sheet of red sticky tape that I had cut out to wrap around the votive holder. I put micro beads all over the tape. Voila! It is very pretty in real life and shines at night.
