Happy Easter Lilac

Currie made this Easter card.

She stamped the branch on white card stock, colored it with Copic markers and added a light yellow around the edges.

Then it was mounted on dark purple card stock and then on printed paper which went on kraft colored card with the fold at the top.

Currie stamped the words on printed paper.  She used Tim Holtz fragments to glue over the words.  You can use a clear liquid glue or a clear lacquer and cut around the fragments.

Thanks for looking.

Happy Easter Tag

Currie made this great tag for Easter,

but it would also be a great tag for Spring, just change the saying.

All stamps are from Crackerbox Palace stamps.

Cut out tag with light tan card stock or out of a file folder.

Punch a hole in the center.

Stamp the branch and birds on the tag. Branch and birds are colored with markers. The bird wings and leaves are colored with Smooch. The eyes are glued on.

Stamp the Happy Easter saying. Then stamp the circle background stamp with VersaMark or a light brown ink.

Stamp the saying in the upper left hand corner.

Using StazOn, stamp the leaves on Tim Holtz tags and tie it on with twine.

Put ribbon through hole and attach a brad.

Get Well with Feet

I hope you never have to use this saying, but if you do, here is an idea.

First I used the tag stamp and stamped the saying on it and cut it out.

Then I stamped the feet stamp on the printed paper as well as on Cyrgen white paper.  I colored the feet with Copic and then cut them out with the flower.  I cut off the flower stem, but since I stamped it on the printed paper it was there.  I stamped the flowers that I normally use with the small feet and put them on the tag.

The grass is the Martha Stewart punch.

This saying is also the Martha Stewart punch with the Crackebox Palace stamps.

Have you started thinking about Easter?

Chick made this can for Easter treats.

This is a regular size can with a pop top.

She used a side cutting can opener and opened the bottom of the can and then filled it with treats.  She then glued the bottom of the can back on and decorated the can.

She wrapped paper around the can, then added the lace.

All the the stamps she used are from Crackerbox Palace stamps.

She stamped, shaped and cut out the bunny and eggs.

The cutout shape is from Spellbinders and she used Martha Stewart punch for the grass.

What a fun way to give gifts and/or treats to anyone.

Reason for Drinking

I was thinking of making a guy card for St. Patrick's Day and this stamp came to mind.

I used the Poster on Wood stamp. I stamped it twice, once on dark brown and then on lighter tan. I cut out the center and sponged on brown ink around the edges and glued it on the darker brown.

I used the same brown ink around the edges of the card.

The 3 merry men are stamped on white card stock, colored with Copic markers and then cut out. I used pop dots behind them so they would stand out.
