This month’s Paper Pro’s challenge is Easter! I started with some Karen Burniston Crosshatch Ovals to make a focal point.
The greeting comes from the Easter Charms dies, the eggs from the Spring Animal die and the tulips from the Garden Charms die. The scallop is from the Borders Blends Argyle die set. I blended the the sentiment with Stampin Up inks to add interest.
Inside I used the Oval Frames die with the darling Spring Animals! I chose to have the frame lift up. (Watch Karen’s video on YouTube)
Here’s a look at how the mechanism works. It’s so much fun! Make sure to check out the other Pro’s and get ready for Easter! Hugs, Fran
Easter is on it’s way and the Karen Burniston Design Team is focusing on Easter and Spring this month! I decided to do a waterfall card featuring the Spring Animal dies. You can find the video on this technique on Karen’s YouTube channel.
Isn’t that bunny darling? I die cut him in white and used Copic markers to give him some dimension. His tail is done with a snow marker to make it puff. A white gel pen decorates the larger eggs and the small eggs have Wink of Stella on them. The bunny’s nose is Nuvo Jewel Drops in Strawberry Coulis. The grass is die cut using the Nature’s Edges dies. And the “Hopping By” is from a Stampin Up Saleabration set.
As you pull the tab, the card flips through the pictures. On the second page, I decorated with the little chicks in the Spring Animal set. They were die cut in Daffodil Delight and highlighted with Copic markers. To do the sentiment, I searched through my words and masked together several sentiments to make it say what I wanted it to say!
Page three has a chick and a pieced together sentiment.
And at the end, the bunny and chick are together wishing you a Happy Easter – from the Easter Charms die set. On the back of the card I added a piece of heavy white card stock so there is a place to add your greeting. Make sure to check out the rest of the design team and get a full dose of Easter/Spring inspiration! Karen will post tomorrow. Hugs, Fran
