Easter Time
>> Tuesday, March 30, 2021
Hi Everyone,
It was Palm Sunday this past weekend, which means it's Holy Week on the Christian calendar. It's the week where Christians remember and prepare their hearts for Easter Sunday, and DRS Designs has this new Holy Week Religious Icons stamp that pays homage to to this time of the year.
I stamped it twice, die cutting the one image and then coloring and fussy cutting the second, adding the little images with some dimensional foam tape. It seemed perfect for a square card, so I made one that was 4 1/4" x 4 1/4". A punched scalloped border, attached some lace ribbon, and a few enamel dots to finish it off.
I kept with the gold and purple color combo and made this CAS Easter card. The card base was stamped using the Splatter Background stamp, and I chose the classic Swiss Dot dry embossing folder for my background. I die cut the new Hope is the Greatest Gift of Easter Greeting, along with the enamel dot embellished die cut cross. A colored flower that was fussy cut from the Flower Border stamp was added to complete the look.
And finally, here is a quick photo of my Easter dinner place cards that I made using the new Chick in Nest stamp. Can you tell I was practicing my coloring? They're all slightly different! There are only 5 of us this year, but it's better than last year, which was only 3. I'm praying that everyone will comfortable gathering in a big group next year!
Happy Easter stamping Friends!
Have a lovely week :)

What a great post Karin! I love how you popped up the Holy Week images on the first card, added the single flower under the greeting on the second card. My favorite however are your adorable place cards - what a great idea practicing your coloring at the same time! (I think I like the one for Marge best :)
Karin! These are all fabulous! The Holy Week card is colored beautifully and I love your enamel dots and pretty lace. The cross is gorgeous and works so perfectly with that sentiment. Finally, your chicks are just so cute - they are sure to be a hit. Super creative ideas here and I love them all! Hugz
Oh that cross die is perfect with that new sentiment and the place tags are fantastic with the new little chick. Super cute Karin!
Love your 2 Easter cards! The colors are beautiful and I love the icons on the first card individually cut out, that looks so pretty! The second card with the cross is also so beautiful!
Your little chick place names are very cute!
These are all terrific, Karin! Love the yellow/purple combo & all the layers & die cuts are beautiful. The way you popped up the individual icons is really sharp. Such cute little place tags, too. I didn't make any..just the 2 of us & we kinda know who we are, lol.
Karin, these are beautiful Easter cards. That celebrate the true reason for Easter! Love them! Great Card designs & coloring. Your table setting cards are adorable with that little chick! I’m sure everyone loved them!
