Rejoice in Him Easter Cards

 


Here are my Easter Cards for 2023! Every year for the last 8 years (or so), I've been making Easter Cards to send to family and close friends. Sometimes they are silly and some times they are more on the spiritual side. This year I used the Rejoice in Him stamp set (retiring soon) and I LOVE the results. 


I was able to stamp the inside with the perfect phrases. "He is Risen" and "Celebrate His love." 


This phrase sums up my feelings pretty well, "Joy & Love"! 



I made these cards for Palm Sunday and hand delivered them with a plate of Cream Cheese Frosted Banana Bars to some of our favorite Church friends. 


I loved using the palms as a background and just made them either horizonal or vertical. 



Let's just talk how PERFECT this Designer Series Paper, By the Bay, is with this image of Christ. It reminds me of the introduction to the show called The Chosen. My family and I just love that TV series. 



Not only is the stamp set retiring but the DSP and the color Sahara Sand! 


I was able to stamp the back with my personal stamp and the dove from the set.
