Missionary Cards

 

Missionary Cards!

I was asked by a friend to make her some cards for church for the missionaries. She let me design them and so I had lots of FUN using the retired Suits & Ties Dies to create these cards! 

My Sister/Female card was inspired by Tami White. 

I created a necklace with embellishments and added lace to the yellow undershirt. 

For the Elders/Male cards I used Gray Granite and some retired DSP for the suit jacket. The black rectangle is an ionic item that makes this manly card into a missionary card. I just used the pocket die on a straight edge to make just the right size. 

The girls were extra fun as I could use different patterns of paper for the dress top. 

I hope this post has inspired you to grab your old dies and make something personal! I am so excited for the missionaries to receive these with cute messages from little children. 

Happy Stampin' Everyone!!!
