Studio 73 A Country Spring Easter Card

 

Hi everyone 😀

Just stopping in to share the Easter Card that I made for my daughter:

I am popping this card into the following Challenge:

Splitcoaststampers - Free for All Friday F4A684 - Easter.

There are no time limits to play Splitcoaststampers Challenges so you can play a Challenge from years ago to now.

The main image, sentiment and designer papers - other than the pink paper - are by Studio 73 - A Country Spring Collection - who are an Australian scrapbooking company.  I don't know if you can buy their products in any  countries other than in Australia.  

I love that there are lots of images and sentiments to use in this 12" x 12" collection so that made a quick and easy card for me to make.  

The pink designer paper is by Anko - Blue Blossom Mini Paper Stack - 6" x 6" - which I bought from KMart.  I used a Martha Stewart Pinking Scallop Edge Punch to punch the pink border.

I added a 1/2" wide Pink Organza Ribbon in two separate elements - and the bow itself was made using my Bow Easy.  I glued the bow on using Helmar's Fabric Glue.

The Pink Heart Rhinestones are also by Anko - again bought from KMart.  I added Kindyglitz Crystalina Glitter Glue to the flowers in the main image and the Easter eggs.

Once I had finished the card front, I glued it onto an Anko white card base using Tombow Mono Multi Glue.

Finished size is 5-5/8" x 5-5/8" or 143mm x 143mm.

Thanks for stopping by!

Memory Box Springtime Bunnies Easter card

Hi everyone

Today I am sharing a card that I made for my daughter for Easter which I made on Easter Saturday.

This is also my card for the following Challenges:

Crafty Catz Challenge #366 - Anything goes with an optional twist of Animals

Splitcoaststampers - Free for All F4A369 - Think Spring

The adorable images (other than the butterfly) are by Memory Box from their Springtime Bunnies and Birthday Bunnies stamp sets.  Specifically, the bow and the carrot are from the Birthday Bunnies set and the eggs, both bunnies, basket of eggs and sentiment are from Springtime Bunnies.  I have had these 2 sets for a while and been itching to make a card with them.  The butterfly and the trail are from the Lawn Fawn Chirpy Chirp Chirp set.

I stamped the images onto Ranger Watercolour cardstock using Ranger Archival Jet Black ink then coloured the images using Derwent Inktense pencils and a #2 round paintbrush.  I have been very out-of-practice doing any colouring of late so I had a few attempts before I was happy with the final result.  I diecut all the images with the matching dies.

The sky and lawn are from the latest release 6" x 6" pad by Lawn Fawn - Watercolour Wishes.  I diecut the lawn using a Lawn Fawn Simple Stitched Hillside border die then attached it to the sky then ran it through my Bigshot using a Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle die.

I drew on a few extra lines of my butterfly trail with a Copic black multiliner pen as the stamped line wasn't quite long enough.

The rainbow paper is also by Lawn Fawn - Perfectly Plaid Rainbow from their 6" x 6" pad.  I diecut the bottom using a Lawn Fawn Stitched Scallop borders die just to add a bit of interest. 

The twine is from KMart (Australia) which came in a pack of 5 plain colours.  It's very thin compared to other twines but I really like the colours  Lastly, I added some sparkle using a Wink of Stella Clear glitter brush to all the eggs, bow, butterfly and the bunny cheeks - which as always, is very hard to see in the photo but looks really pretty in real life :-) The eggs are popped up on dimensionals.

Thanks for visiting my blog today!
