Easter Cards

Here are some of the products used to make cards for family this Easter.

The final cards came out mostly nicely.  The stamp and die set is from an old Hampton Art (HA) & Sizzix framelit die & stamp set. There is no link for currently available product as I got it back in 2013! The GLITTERY embossing powders are an older set of five from Stampendous Co and a Gold one from Ranger Ink.  I also used some of the Distress Oxide Inks colors to make the backgrounds using some Tim Holtz/ Ranger watercolor paper (118#, cold press).  It was a total fail to stamp and emboss using the gold embossing powder directly onto the background watercolor paper as it did not show up too well.  I say, maybe use a different color of embossing powder, black or white and it may show up better against all the various background colors. 

This one uses a great fancy floral banner die (no idea where I bought this one) which is stamped with the greeting and that is all the frill that the card needs.  This wildflower banner die is so awesome, I'll keep on looking for the Brand and get the link up here soon. The insides of these read "You're Tweet" or "to my favorite peep" which are found on that that HA Chick stamp set.  

Unfortunately, I already gave away a lot of the cards I made but here are a few that have yet to be mailed out.

These first two have the Stampin Up! layered stamped bunny from the Sweet Little Something stamp set which I placed into the Memory Box Woven Basket Die.  The doilies were sprayed in the first card with some Lindy's Stamp Gang spray mists.  The sentiments are from the All Occasions (not sure of brand on it) stamp set in that beautiful cursive font.  

 The card below is quick--just a beautiful background Decorative Oval Lattice die from Heartfelt Creations.  An oldie but a goldie.  I also dug out my old Four Frames Stampin Up! stamp set for the cute labels above and below.

 This card below I scalped the card front off of a card I received from my crafty friend, Rebecca.  Isn't it so sweet?  She loves to use stickers and does a great job of it.  I can't believe the whole thing is made entirely of stickers!  Amazing talent that lady.

 More uses of the lattice die mentioned earlier. and theBeach Bunnies stamp set from My Favorite Things.  They were colored using my Spectrum Noir alcohol markers and turned out quite adorable.  I also used a touch of my ZIG Wink of Stella GLITTER CLEAR Brush Tip Marker to add some shimmer to their bellies.   The adorable BANNERTASTIC Clear Stamps and Dies banner stamp and die set was recently bought and it has come in very handy.  The sentiments are from the Tim Holtz Stamper's Anonymous All Occasions stamp set, an old favorite.

 Thant's it for the Easter cards that I have to share for today.
Hugs,
