JustRite 12 Weeks of Christmas Blog Hop 12

Welcome to the final week of JustRite Stampers’ Wednesday feature, 12 Weeks of Christmas Blog Hops! JustRite has been showcasing their entire Christmas Collection of stamps during the hops and ALL of those JustRite Original stamps are currently on sale at 25% off now through November 29, with free shipping within the U.S. on consumer orders over $50! You can view all of those Holiday Sale stamp sets HERE.

If you would like to go back through all of the hops and see all of the gorgeous Christmas inspiration from the past 11 weeks, you can do so by clicking on the 12 Weeks of Christmas Blog Hops category on the JustRite Inspiration blog. All of the designers’ projects are hyperlinked directly to their blog posts that have full details of how they created the project, so you won’t have to search for them!

Don’t forget that JustRite also has some Christmas stamps in their newly released CLING line of stamp sets, too -- you can find all of their cling stamp sets HERE. This week, the designers joining the JustRite design team are the 2 Sketches 4 You designers! JustRite is sponsoring this week’s 2S4Y #66 sketch challenge. You can find the fabulous sketch inspiration AND details about the JustRite prize package, by visiting their blog post HERE.

My project today uses one of the newly released Cling sets called "Simple Blessings".  This set is gorgeous!!!  As soon as I saw this church it reminded me of the church that I grew up going to.  My grandmother has been a member of this same church for over 50 years! 

My card is based on the sketch challenge over at 2 Sketches 4 You which is being sponsored by JustRite this week.  I love using sketches as inspiration.

I stamped the church onto black cardstock with Versamark and heat embossed it with silver embossing powder.  The oval frame around the church is from the "Breath Of Spring" set, stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and handcut.  Then I matted it onto a Spellbinders Big Scallop Ovals mat and a black Spellbinders Beaded Ovals mat.
The bottom border was created with Spellbinders Fleur De Lis Border.  The sentiment is also from the "Simple Blessings" set diecut with Spellbinders Fancy Tags.

Here is a closer look at this gorgeous church!!


And here is a closer look at the entire "Simple Blessings" cling set.
