    &lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;serendipity_image_left&quot; src=&quot;http://www.ewillow.com/serendipity/uploads/background005.jpg&quot; width=&quot;300&quot; height=&quot;75&quot; alt=&quot;&quot;  /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I was contacted by a new client to make invitations for her son&#039;s first Holy Communion.&amp;#160; Big challenge for me...I realized that I don&#039;t have any religious paraphernalia in my papercrafting supplies.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I always love to take on a new challenge.&amp;#160; I wanted to make sure the card was appropriate for a little boy.&amp;#160; Several of the crucifix stamps that I could find were either too intricate or had lots of flowers and vines on them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I decided to use&amp;#160;a punch to&amp;#160;create a cross and print the words &amp;quot;First Holy Communion&amp;quot; instead of trying to find&amp;#160;the right&amp;#160;stamps.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here is the final result:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;serendipity_image_left&quot; src=&quot;http://www.ewillow.com/serendipity/uploads/firstcommunion003.jpg&quot; width=&quot;464&quot; height=&quot;579&quot; alt=&quot;&quot;  /&gt;&amp;#160;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I used the &lt;strong&gt;&lt;a onclick=&quot;_gaq.push([&#039;_trackPageview&#039;, &#039;/extlink/www.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=119849&amp;amp;amp;dbwsdemoid=50870&#039;]);&quot;  href=&quot;http://www.stampinup.com/ECWeb/ProductDetails.aspx?productID=119849&amp;amp;dbwsdemoid=50870&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Modern Label&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; punch and put it on top of a thin strip of cardstock. That&#039;s all it took to create the cross. Easy, easy, easy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;serendipity_image_left&quot; src=&quot;http://www.ewillow.com/serendipity/uploads/background002.jpg&quot; width=&quot;414&quot; height=&quot;624&quot; alt=&quot;&quot;  /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
