His Light for the Stray Ducklings Blog Waddle

Welcome to the September edition of the Stray Ducklings Blog Waddle. We are a group of Stampin' Up! demonstrators from North Central Illinois who share our passion for stamping. This month we are creating projects from the new Holiday Catalog. I am featuring the His Light stamp set. I was inspired by the sample in the catalog on page 26.

 

To make the sentiment panel, I started by filling a Stampin' Spritzer 2/3 with alcohol. I added a few drops of Frost White Shimmer Paint and Night of Navy reinker. I shook it well and sprayed the Whisper White cardstock with it. The picture does not do it justice. It's gorgeous! 

Then I put the REJOICE stamp on my Stamparatus and inked it up using Balmy Blue, Pacific Point & Night of Navy inks with a sponge dauber.

 

To get the background image I used the evergreen from the Lovely as a Tree stamp set and stamped it sideways. Then I placed the sentiment panel over the top to create the look of a pine bough. 

 I also used it on the edge of the inside and the envelope. Cool eh? It's always fun to use a stamp differently :)

 

 And that's it for my project. Our next waddler is the talented Debbie Kramer
