Hi friends! It’s Dana here today sharing an adorable birthday card with you all.
I started my card by creating my card panel with the Spring Flowers stencil set. I love these stencils and I had to use them again!! They make such a pretty card panel. I used dye inks and kept my colors soft and “spring like.” Next, I used theSpring Circles set to stamp my bees. This set has such sweet images, perfect for this time of year. For my frames I used the Easter Circles dies. I love the stitching detail on these dies. Lastly, I used the Simple Sentiments set to stamp my birthday sentiment.
Thanks for joining me today and I hope you liked my card. I love creating cards like this, by just changing the sentiment they are perfect for so many occasions.
Hello crafty friends. It’s Lisa Mears here. Today I’m sharing two cards that I made using some products from the Pretty Pink Posh March Spring/Easter release.
If you would like to watch how I made my cards, then watch my video.
I die cut a Scallop Circle die from white cardstock and adhered the circle frame and center of the circle to the card layer. I die cut the Butterfly Shaker die set two times using teal cardstock. I added both layers of the butterfly die cut to the center of the scallop circle, only gluing the center of the butterfly. I did not adhere the wings to the card front which gives a beautiful dimensional look. I added the Sparkling Clear Confetti Mix to the center of the butterfly. I added the sentiment from the Hugs stamp set to the card.
Thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a wonderful day!
Hello friends, Gemma here. Today I have a card to share featuring the new Flat Pinwheelsand Smile Script die sets. Together, these make a fun and happy card.
I began by die cutting the two smaller size pin wheels from the Flat Pinwheels die set, using polka dot patterned papers. I then layered two together to make my pinwheels. For the centre, I adhered a pearl embellishment to match. For the pinwheel sticks, I die cut some Stitched Strips from Kraft card and adhered them to the back of the pinwheels. The Smile Script die is cut from two layers of white card, with a top layer of pink glitter card.
Next, I worked on the background. On a 5.25” square card base, I blended spun sugar distress oxide around the edge first, then blended some more through the Snowfall stencil to add some details.
I adhered the pinwheels to the card, followed by the scripty sentiment. For the dot on the ‘i’, I used a Pink Blush pearl. I used Lilac pearls, Sea Foam pearls and Creamsicle pearls for the middles of the pinwheels. They’re the perfect finishing touch.
I hope you enjoyed this card. If you’re on Instagram, there will be a reel of how to create this card up very soon.
Good morning! It’s Lindsey here today with a cheerful Easter card. There are so many cute stamp sets from the latest release, and I was eager to use them on a card. I pulled out an older Easter set as well, and they work perfectly together.
I started by covering my entire card base with the Hoppy Easter Script Dies. Next I stamped lots and lots of images from Easter Signs, Easter Wreath, and Easter Bunnies and used Tombow ABT Pro markers (plus a few random markers in my stash) to do some basic coloring. I always find it helpful to stamp and color more than you think you’ll need. It makes it easier to make arrangements, takes away the stress if your coloring goes awry on a few, and gives you a head start on another card if you have some leftovers.
After all the images were colored, I cut them with the coordinating dies. Then I arranged a little scene, keeping the “rule of 3” in the back of my mind as I determined color placement. I used varying thicknesses in dimensional foam, so there would be a lot of dimension on the card.
Though simple in design, this card is packed with cuteness thanks to these darling new stamps and dies. They are the perfect combination for easy, enjoyable crafting!
I hope you were inspired to try this technique! Thanks for stopping by!
For the first layer of the butterflies, I will be ink blending using regular distress inks in Picked Raspberry, Dried Marigold, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron, Salvaged Patina, and Wilted Violet. I forget how vibrant and beautiful the regular distress inks are!
For the second layer, which adds detail to the wings, I went over the same areas with the same colors. Looking back, I wish I would have gone over it with a darker color because as the ink dried, it faded back a lot and the details didn’t show up as well.
The third layer of the stencil adds the body of the butterfly in which I used a dark grey dye ink from my stash.
I needed to break up the background a little so I added small strips of cardstock in colors that matched my background.
I finished the card off with a sentiment from Easter Signs stamp set heat embossed in white onto black cardstock.
Although I turned this into a Spring card, I think it would make a great encouragement or birthday card because of its vibrancy.
Hope you enjoyed today’s project and it brightened your day!
Hello crafty friends! It’s Yoonsun here to share a couple of “Happy Easter” cards with the Daffodils set along with the Fancy Easter Script die. Sunny yellow daffodils are called “Easter flower” because they are one of the first flowers to bloom in the spring and are usually in bloom for Easter. So the daffodils products are perfect for the Easter cards.
For the Daffodils on the bottom of the card, I laid theDaffodils stencil onto white cardstock, applied Fossilized Amber & Wild Honey Distress inks to petals, Crushed Olive & Mowed Lawn Distress inks to leaves using blending brushes. I then stamped outlined Daffodils using pale beige dye ink in place, die cut them with the Daffodils coordinating dies – This Daffodils trio is so awesome!
Hello crafty friends! It’s Leica here today with a Hoppy Easter card with the cutest Pretty Pink Posh bunny. This is super simple and fun to make. Let’s get started!
I first cut a panel in light pink cardstock using theStitched Notes Die. I then ink blended through the Layered Eggs Stencils with Distress Oxide Inks – Kitsch Flamingo + Picked Raspberry, Tumbled Glass + Spun Sugar, and Milled Lavender + Shaded Lilac.
I then stamped the bunny from the Easter Circles Stamp Set on a light pink cardstock and colored with Copic markers – W5/3/1, YG03/00, YR02/00. I cut the circle with the coordinating die and layered it with a stitched circle die in white cardstock. Next, I cut the ornate die in vellum and layered all the pieces together. These extra dies are all part of the Easter Circles coordinating dies.
Next, I cut a 4” x 5.25” panel in white cardstock and a 4.25” x 5.5” panel in pink cardstock. I adhered all the panels using liquid glue. For the sentiment, I stamped Hoppy Easter from the Easter Wreath Stamp Set on a strip of Kraft cardstock and foam mounted it onto the stenciled panel. Lastly, I adhered the card panel onto an A2 sized card.
Thanks so much for stopping by today! I hope that you enjoyed today’s card share.
Hello crafty friends. It’s Lisa Mears here. Today I’m sharing some Easter treat bags that I made using the Easter Circles stamp and coordinating dies. These treat bags were so much fun to make. They can be used as gifts for children, friends, family, and co-workers during Easter or the spring season.
The Easter Circles stamp set comes with six circles with Easter and spring-themed images inside of them such as an Easter bunny, Easter basket, flower bouquet, Easter eggs, a flower, and a spring chick. I started by stamping my images onto Bristol Smooth cardstock using a black archival ink. I colored the images with Zig Clean Color Real Brush pens. The colors I used are listed below.
Bunny: Gray, Pale Gray, Orange, Light Green, Light Blue, Blender
I die cut the images with the Easter Circles coordinating dies. Using the stitched circle die, I die cut a piece of solid colored cardstock that matched the colored stamp. Using the label die in the set, I die cut another piece of matching colored cardstock.
To create the bag toppers, I cut a piece of solid colored cardstock to 4 1/2” x 3 1/8”. I used white pigment ink and the Mini Polka Dot stencilto ink a polka dot pattern on the cardstock. Next, I scored the cardstock at 2 1/4” (along the 4 1/2” side) and folded it in half.
I added some Easter grass and chocolate eggs to the inside of a 3 inch bag. I used double-sided adhesive tape along the inside bottom and inside top of the bag topper and adhered it to the bag. I added the labels to the top.
Thank you so much for stopping by today. Have a wonderful day!
Hello, it’s Jeanne here for another day of inspiration for Easter theme week. Every holiday makes me feel a little sentimental because it brings back memories of special moments from my childhood, and from time spent with my own children. Easter always has me laughing about rainbow-colored fingers from egg painting.
When I was young we would soak our eggs in the cups of dye until they turned the darkest shade of violet or chartreuse. Sometimes it would seem like forever. Maybe you remember making colorful stripes on the eggs or personalizing them with the clear wax crayon included in the dye pack.
I’m sharing a trio of cards today with colorful striped backgrounds made with Stacked Edges dies. If you’ve never tried these you should! You’ll love how the borders fit together perfectly keeping your card front smooth and flat – something you CAN’T accomplish with regular borders.
I like to cut three borders at a time. A little wax paper helps free them from the stitched die, and before you know it you’ll have lots of borders in a rainbow of colors.
The striped backgrounds are topped with images from the Easter Circles stamp set. Even if you don’t celebrate Easter, the pretty spring images like the daffodil and flower bouquet are total eye candy.
Each of the “Circles” Series stamp sets has a different complimentary die set that can be used as a tag, label, or beautiful frame for the stamps. I used the Easter Circles die and layered it over the Fall Circles coordinating die.
You can achieve lots of different looks with just a few different die sets – each one prettier than the next!
I hope my cards inspired you to create some colorful Easter projects. There are so many possibilities with these dies and stamps!

For my project today I used the Decorative eggs dies. I love to create colorful designs so I couldn’t resist to ink blend each egg with a different color.
First, I die cut several layers of these eggs out of white cardstock. Then I applied Twisted Citron, Kitsch Flamingo and Mustard Seed Distress inks on the die cut layers. I wanted to create three eggs shakers so after the top layer was colored, I glued an acetate piece and stacked the rest of the layers to achieve the dimension I needed.
Next, I filled these eggs with Petunia, Sunshineand Grass Green seed beads (love love love these small but gorgeous beads for shakers). Then I placed the bottom layer to which I also applied the same ink that I had used on the front layer with a gradient look from left to right.
Next, I created a background by ink blending Salvage Patina Distress Ink. To add some extra dimension, I added some white die cut leaves using one of theStitched Leafy Border Dies and added some splatters of gold watercolor.
Finally, I added some small flowers from the Mom stamp set and used the new Hoppy Easter die for my sentiment using gold foil cardstock.
I had so much fun creating this design and I hope it inspires you to create some projects too! Hope you like this card and visit Pretty Pink Posh Blog for more inspiration throughout this week.
