I try to make a card each Easter with a cross. I made one last year you can see it here.

I decided I wanted to make one similar, but I wanted Jesus’s crown on it.

I used the two smallest dies of Deckled Circles to make the base of the crown- with Early Espresso. For the thorn, I used dies from Lifetime of Love with Gold Foil. My husband thought it was perfect!

The cross is Crumb Cake embossed with Timber 3D embossing folder (all measurements below).

I wanted there to be a hill or dirt at the bottom. Seaside Bay dies have a die that works! I used Early Espresso.

For the background, I used Basic White and colored lightly with a Blending Brush and Balmy Blue ink. I embossed with the Distressed Tile embossing folder. I then used my scissors along the edges to make them a little distressed.

“He is Risen” is from the Easter Lilies stamp set. I stamped with Versamark on Basic White and embossed with gold powder. I then die cut with the smallest rectangle from the Everyday Detail dies.
