Debbie used a trendy teal for her pretty monochromatic Easter egg card. She used a fringe egg shaped die, cutting it several times, inking it and splattering it too. She placed that over a vellum panel and stenciled bow background. She accented the egg with ribbons and a stamped sentiment. Find more info at the Pretty Pink Posh blog.
Cassie created a clever card that cracks open to reveal a space to tuck in some money. She decorated her scalloped egg shape with stamped plaid, a heat embossed sentiment, some glittery dots and a cute little stamped Easter Gnome. Learn more at the Trinity Stamps blog.
Colleen created an amazing background using lots of pattern papers and layers of die cut tags for her sweet bunny card. I love the rich dark pink color combo she used, even coloring her stamped bunny with markers that match the paper. Notice how the bunnies eye and nose glisten, she added a touch of glossy accents to them. Find all the details on the Unity Stamps blog.
Yana has some great tips for mass producing cards easily when you need to make a bunch. Her trio of darling rabbits are stamped, colored with Copic markers and die cut out along with some carrots. Lastly she stamped the sentiment and tiny hearts. Watch her video tutorial on the Yana Smakula blog.
A fun way to add dimension to your cards is with honeycomb, they fold flat but then can be pulled open for a fun interactive addition. Here Laura used dies and green honeycomb from The Greetery for her sweet chick card. There’s also a stamped sentiment and cardstock strips on the background. Learn more at the Laura Fadora blog.
If you want to draw attention to a small stamped image you can add loads of layers underneath to pull the eye to the center design. Sara added lots of layers of concentric dies in different shades of green and white with the stamped and water colored bunny on the top. There’s also pretty pearls and ribbon embellishments too. Take a closer look at the Art Impressions blog.
This pretty in pink card from Monica uses products from Whimsy Stamps and has a colorful background stamped in pink inks with a paint brush stamp and some splatters. The cute bunny, basket and chick were stamped, colored and cut out and adhered to the corner. There’s also a die cut and stamped sentiment too. I spotted her idea on monica_conlakappa_cards Instagram page.
I hope the Easter Bunny brings you some wonderful things including some handmade cards!
