Having had a fab time with my team mates at Onstage Live in Amsterdam over the last few days it was back to the real world today as I got my Easter cards ready to post. Here is how i made them.

Using the Letters for You stamp set I stamped the letters E, A, S, T, E and R in Calypso Coral, Marina Mist, So Saffron, Pool Party, Pear Pizzazz and Wisteria Wonder ink onto Whisper White cardstock. I think these soft, subtle colours go so well for projects with Spring themes. I then die cut the letters using the co-ordinating Large Letter Framelit dies. I wanted the letters to have some dimension and achieved this by die-cutting 2 extra letters from Whisper White cardstock  for each stamped letter and gluing them using Tombow Liquid Adhesive, one on top of the other so that the letters are raised up.

I cut a piece of Whisper White cardstock 6¼” by 2¾” and using the stems stamp from the Sprinkles of Life stamp set I stamped along the bottom using Pear Pizzazz ink. I added the tiny flowers from the same set using Calypso Coral, So Saffron, Pool Party and Wisteria Wonder ink.

The letters were adhered above the flower border using Tombow Liquid Adhesive. A tiny flower was punched in co-ordinating card using the Tree Builder Punch and added to a letter with a Mini Glue Dot and a Basic Rhinestone added for some interest.

I layered the topper onto a co-ordinating colour cardstock – Pear Pizzazz, So Saffron, Wisteria Wonder, Marina Mist or Calypso Coral and added the whole piece to a DL size Whisper White card base using Stampin’ Dimensionals.

 

I absolutely love these cards, they look so fresh and Spring like. Hope you like them.
