Easter Egg Painting

Hello crafty friends. Today I am sharing one of my latest cards that was featured in Making Cards Magazine. I created three cards for Easter using some super cute bunnies (of course!) and here is card number one...

For this card I used Mama Elephant Eggtastic and Stems & Sprigs Stamp Sets. I stamped them then coloured them with Copics and cut them out. I created a simple blended sky by blending Salvaged Patina Distress Oixde Ink. I used my Mama Elephant Slim Fancy Fence Die to create my white fence border. I blended Twisted Citron & Mowed Lawn Inks onto two strips of white card and die cut them with my grass die from the Time For Tea Designs Slimline Hillside Scene Dies. I used my Lawn Fawn Oliver's ABCs Dies to create the easter word and added a stamped happy word. I arranged everything onto the background and fixed everything in place with foam pads.


Supplies;
Mama Elephant Stamps - Eggtastic, Stems & Sprigs
Mama Elephant Dies - Slim Fancy Fence
Lawn Fawn Dies - Oliver's ABCs
Time For Tea Designs Dies - Slimline Hillside Scene

As it's Thursday though it's time for my latest Time For Tea card. I used those kitties again as they are just perfect for Valentine's which is just around the corner...

For this card I used the Smitten Kitten Stamp Set. I coloured the images with Copics and cut them out. I created the background by firstly blending Kitsch Flamingo and Spun Sugar Distress Oxide Inks. I then placed the Boho Tiles Stencil over the top and used Kitsch Flamingo and Picked Raspberry Inks. I die cut white card using the photo frame from the Memory Keeping Essentials Dies and the glitter heart from the same die set. I made it into a shaker panel and added sequins and gems. I used the Black Polka Dot Washi Tape for the strip at the top. Next I used the Bold Sentiments Stamps & Dies for both the sentiments. I popped all the pieces onto foam pads and added a heart embellishment to finish.

Love You So Much

Hi, crafty friends. Today I am sharing my latest Time For Tea card. I went for a bright colourful card this week which I thought would be a bit different for Valentine's Day...

I started off by creating a simple blended background. I used Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade and Mustard Seed Distress Oxide Inks. I gently splattered the background with a little water and my paint brush then blotted it dry. I used the Stinkin' Cute Stamp Set for all the images. I stamped them, coloured them in and die cut them with the Stinkin' Cute Die Set. The balloons are from the Smitten Kitten Stamp Set. I used the Love You Lots Large Sentiment Die to create the large sentiment and added some white dots with a pen. The stamped sentiment is also from the Stinkin' Cute Stamp Set. To finish I added a few gems.
