Easter Theme Week- Day 2

Hello, Gemma here with a pretty Spring floral shaker card for Easter Theme Week. I’ve combined some new and older sets from Pretty Pink Posh on my card today.

I began by cutting a piece of white card, cut to 5 1/2 inches square. I then partially stamped a greeting from the Easter Eggs stamp set, to get the word ‘happy’. Next, I die cut the Easter egg die, from the Decorative Eggs die set, three times to create shaker windows. I then added some acetate behind the panel.

To build three separate shaker areas on the reverse of the panel, I added a layer of foam tape around each of the windows. I then added more foam tape over the rest of the panel to give an even layer when adding to my card base.

I filled the shaker areas with the new Easter Confetti Mix, then adhered another piece of acetate to seal them. I like to use acetate as it means I can adhere the panel to my card base from the front, which makes aligning everything easier. If you then decide to add colour or patterned paper behind the shakers, it’ll still be visible through the acetate at the back.

I created a 5 3/4 inch square card base and adhered the shaker panel, leaving a thin border around the edge. Next, I die cut the other Decorative Eggs die set from coloured card stock, then adhered them on top of the shaker windows. I love this mix of colours together.

To complete my sentiment, I die cut the Happy Easter Script die, twice from white card and once from pink card, then stacked them together to create a dimensional greeting.

To add some pretty florals, I stamped the individual flower and leaf images from the Spring Wreath stamp set. I coloured them with copic markers, choosing colours to match the Easter eggs. I die cut them with the coordinating dies, then arranged them on the card. They are mostly adhered with liquid glue, but I used some foam tape behind the pink flowers for more dimension.

To finish, I added some Pearl White jewels to the centre of the pink flowers and scattered around the card for extra sparkle.
