Easter Trio

Hello Crafty Friends,

Easter is a week away and I have some last-minute card ideas for you today.

My first card is a fun one that was inspired by THIS cute card done by Cristena who is the Featured Stamper at Splitcoaststampers.com this week. 

I water-colored the sky and background grass and stamped the Brush Pussy Willow and painted them as well. Then I stamped Vicki's Versatile Background on some white paper and then cut the paper into fence posts.  I used a little leftover water-colors to add more interest and then sponged the edges with Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Vintage Photo.  For the critters, I stamped the Tails Up Bunny and Easter Ears Leonard the Pig, fussy cut them, and water-colored them as well.  I removed the egg from Leonard's arms and ticked him in the fence.  My banner was a bit boring so I got the Stickles out and fixed that.  The glitter was speaking to me and I used it in a few more places as well - lol. I finished it off with a part of the 1 Line Easter Blessing Greeting. 

My next card features the Flower Cross Image and the Sending You Sunshine Greeting. 

I sketched and painted the tulips and wreath, stamped the cross and painted it, and then added in gold dots with some gold paint.  I was aiming for shabby chic so I distressed the panel with white acrylic paint and some Distress Ink.  

My last card was easier than it looks and features the Small Rejoice Greeting. 

I water-colored the flowers on the egg and added in Stickles to make it more festive.  I followed THIS video to learn how to do this. 

Hoping you are having a wonderful week.

Hugz, 

Nancy
