Happy Easter

The butterfly is heat embossed with pink powder by Stampendous. The background is a Gina Marie stencil. 

The sentiment was a die that I borrowed. I colored it in with colored pencils and markers. I’m entering this card into:

Floral Friday Easter Bible Card

I found this colored-in image in the drawer and it needed to get on a card. It's painted with powdered chalk and paint. This next picture shows how the paint shines.

The other supplies are as followed. The background paper has been dry embossed with a Spellbinders embossing folder and the ovals were cut out with Creative Memories Cutting System.

The lace in the center is fake and by that I mean it's self-adhesive from Michael's. Thanks for looking. Happy Good Friday to you all.

2 Different Purple Cross Cards

Purple cross card

For the card above, I used scraps of purple paper to create the background. I couldn’t get them on straight, so I purposely made them crooked. The cross is a stencil with iridescent embossing paste and they are both by Dreamweaver stencils. I had to cut behind the cross in order to feed the ribbon to lay over the cross. Then I attached the ribbon on the front with a glue dot.

For the second card, I stamped the Stampin Up cross stamp and colored it in with Copic Markers. I Outlined the cross with an STA Metallic Pen. The cross is layered on top of Cricut cuts from the cartridge Labels. The corner punch is by Marvy. The flower in the corner is unknown at this time but the leaves die cut is Recollections. Thanks for looking.

Eggs in a row card for Terry

The egg stamps are by SNP and the sentiment is by Stamps of Life. I masked off the eggs so they looked behind each other. It then colored them in with Copic markers. I stenciled the background and added a ribbon to the side. Thanks for looking.

Easter Cards in Different shades of Greens

The patterned papers are old and by Provo Craft and K and Co. The top card uses that same embossing folder that I've used all week. The center embossed area works well with any cross. That cross is by Spellbinders and I inked the paper before I removed it from the die.
The second card, the cross is a stamp that I heat embossed with silver embossing powder. That square patterned paper has been stamped with a clear background stamp again very old. Thanks for looking

Easter Cross Cards in Pinks and Purples

On the 1st card, I really like how I did the floss. That sounded kind of cocky. ;) I sewed floss to the ends of the sentiment. Idk where I saw that from but you may see it again.

Best Easter Wishes Cross Cards

My first card, the embossing folder is by Cuttlebug. The patterned paper is by K and Company. The image was downloaded from the internet probably 15 years ago. I don’t know why I printed it so small and on photo paper. My only guess would be for an ATC. 

For my second card, I have two pattern papers by K and Company. The Scalloped ovals are diecuts by Spellbinders. The cross stamp is by Stampin Up and I used the Creative Memories cutting system to make it an oval. The sentiment was downloaded from a company that is no longer in business. You can easily re-create the same sentiment in a Word document or a Google sheet. Thanks for looking.

Floral Friday Easter Cards with digital image printed on photo paper

For these two cards I used patterned paper by Provo Craft- we’re talking old stuff. The floral images were printed on photo paper. Unfortunately, I do not know where the images came from. 

The first card, the cream colored ribbon is from a dollar bin at Michael’s. The small piece of cardstock that is dry embossed is by K and Co. The Hallelujah stamp is from Dollar Tree.

The second card, uses rectangle die cuts by Spellbinders. The stamp set is downstairs and I’m still recovering from surgery and can’t find out. Thanks for looking

Cricut Egg Die-Cut Cards and frame

There are some cards that you make and when you look at them later with new eyes, all you can do is wrinkle your nose and shake your head. That’s me with these first 2 cards. 

I didn’t send this card out because you can’t really tell that the yellow part in the middle is an egg. Which is something I explain in the last project.

The die-cuts are from my Cricut 

The patterned paper is by Doodlebug. 

The second card uses a stamp with 

3 eggs on it by Studio G

I masked the eggs with Inkadinkado masking paper and colored them in with Copic Markers and colored pencils 

The sentiment is a die-cut by Cricut on the Holiday Cakes cartridge

Last thing,

My plan was to create these three frames for my bathroom. I made the two and became frustrated that I couldn’t get the frames to stay on the wall. So, I left the remnants of a third frame on the shelf with the three frames and then I asked my husband for help. He brought me into the bathroom to show me how to hang the frames for the next season. It was at that time that I saw how he used the leftover pieces that were on the shelf to finish the last frame for me. 

He had the back of one egg left which is why the first card in this post does not have an egg back like these ones. I still don’t know where the solid colored egg is.

I like his frame better than mine. Lol.

Easter basket cards

For today's three cards, I used the same basket stamp from a dollar basket at Michael’s (no pun intended). I colored it in with colored pencils and Copic markers. I inked the edges with yellow distress ink. And then adhered it to the card with a piece of foam in order to be the height of the chipboard corner pieces that are by Making Memories. The patterned paper is by Scrap Happy.

The second card, the die cut is by Sizzix with ribbon by Offray weaved thru the holes on the scallop edges of the oval scallop die-cut to create this image. Something different for me but kind of cute. The patterned paper is by Doodlebug.

For the third card, I used patterned paper by Imaginisice and a border sticker by Doodlebug. Besides the cardstock from my stash, that’s all for this card.

I included this picture of all three cards made with the same stamp. The comparison is interesting to see the different looks you can achieve with the same stamp.

Quick side note on card bases: I’m disappointed in the card stock used on the third's card base. The card will not stay standing up. It just slides open.

I hate to say it and pay for it but it’s time to invest in a heavier weight card stock for my horizontal card bases.

Easter Lily Cards

This a very old post that I found and after searching my blog these cards were never posted. However, they are so similar to these

Easter ATC’s-Crosswise

I'm making Easter ATC cards for a swap using a vintage flower. 

There is another vintage flower section of png's on the blog

Little Things Etc

I stamped the background with a Hero Arts background stamp with SU moss ink. I inked it with different colors of distress ink. On top of that layer is Mulberry paper that had been made to stick to the front of the card. I printed the flowers onto glossy paper and adhered to the front of the card. Then I added Jolee’s cross sticker. 

I also made this card using another digital image from the same batch.
