Happy Easter!

 

I did some tone on tone stenciling using the Pretty Pink Posh Layered Eggs stencil and Bubblegum Pink, Peach Bellini, Lemon Drop, Applemint, Sea Glass, and Lovely Lavender inks from Gina K. I topped it with the Giant Happy Easter die from Lawn Fawn. I stacked several die cuts to give it dimension. I then trimmed it with the Large Rectangle Stackables from Lawn Fawn and attached to a mint panel from my stash with foam tape. Hard to believe Easter’s almost here!

Fantastical fun

 

This card is in honor of my nephew, who loves fantasy. I used the Waffle Flower Open Book die, Dragon Castle coloring stencil, and Open Book Sentiments stamp set. I used Gina K. inks in Blue Denim, Red Hot, and Sweet Corn for the dragon and book. The gold accents are done with Simon Hurley’s Lunar Paste in Slippery When Wet and the background is Hero Arts Bold Script. All the black ink is Tsukineko VersaFine Onyx Black.

Round and round

 

This card was made using the Gina K. Wreath Builder and images from the Pretty Pink Posh Easter Wreath. The sentiment is from Lawn Fawn’s Celebration Scripty Sayings and the images were colored with Prismacolor colored pencils.

Eggstra special Easter

 I started with a panel of Lawn Fawn’s Ballet Slippers cardstock, cut with their Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables. I stamped the sentiment from Eggstra Special Easter, also by Lawn Fawn, with Versafine Onyx Black ink at the top. I stamped the bunnies and basket from the same set with Jet Black ink and colored them with Copic markers. The egg was cut from vellum with the Outside In Easter Egg Stackables. I glued the basket to the vellum and the vellum to the card, and popped the bunnies up with foam squares.

Éire go deo!

 

Which means Ireland Forever! It’s a few days early, but I wanted to share this St. Patrick’s Day card. I only used three shades of green instead of forty, but I still like the effect. Stamps are by Lawn Fawn, their Celebration Scripty Sentiments and Simply Celebrate Spring sets, along with their Noble Fir ink. The other two colors are Later Gator and Fake Plant, both by Simon Hurley for Ranger. I also used Ranger’s Super Fine Detail Embossing Powder in gold and Simon Says Stamp Gold Matte cardstock. The panels were cut with Lawn Fawn Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables, and the top panel was popped up on Altenew foam tape.

Happy Birthday!

 

Happy birthday to Lawn Fawn and me! Lawn Fawn is turning sixteen, and well, let’s just say I’m considerably older. This card uses the Giant Birthday Messages stamp & die set, as well as the birthday incentives from 2022-2025, Party Pig, Party Deer, Party Beaver, and Party Cat(Party Fox arrived too late to join in this year.) The images were colored with a mix of Copic markers and Pigma Micron pens, as well as a Pentel Sunburst Metallic Gel for the gold. The center message was mounted on gold cardstock on thin foam squares, and the animals on standard foam squares. Happy birthday to everyone who celebrates this month!

Spring love

 This happy bunny couple is ready for Easter on this sweet Lawn Fawn card. All the solid cardstock is Lawn Fawn, and I also used their patterned papers from the Spiffy Speckles, Perfectly Plaid Remix, and Flower Market collections. Build-A-Bunny and Build-A-Bunny Accessories dies were used to cut out the bunnies and their clothing and accessories. The bunnies and background were assembled with liquid glue and then the panel was popped up on foam tape.
