Karen Burniston April Challenge – Easter

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

Crazy 4 Challenges – Fall C4C454

This week challenge over at the Crazy 4 Challenges site is Fall.  I started with the new Karen Burniston Frame Pull die and Autumn Elements and the Stampin Up Basket Weave embossing folder.  I die cut the leaves and fall elements from a scrap piece of paper that I had used to play with some alcohol inks!  The dots were added with an assortment of Nuvo Dots.

I used the Autumn words set to make the greeting and continued with some more die cut fall elements.

Then I finished up with the last element I could squeeze out of that piece of practice paper!  Happy Fall!  Thanks for having me as the guest designer at Crazy 4 Challenges this month!  Hugs, Fran
