Easter Cards

Welcome to the studio! As I posted earlier I have been working on making Easter cards to send to my Mother's Life Care Center for all the residents. I am sharing some photos of the 80 plus cards that I am making. I am using up bits and pieces from my leftover boxes of stamped images, scraps, and die cuts to create the cards.  The top 3 cards were made with already colored images from an earlier project from several years ago.  The stamps were from Flourishes A Year of Flowers set designed by Marcella Hawley.  I trimmed the images and matted with green scraps and added to some textured card stock bases.  Stamped with an old Hero Arts sentiment. I printed messages for the inside using large print on copy paper. 

Challenges:

As You Like It Challenge: Favorite Easter or Spring. I like making Easter cards because I love to share them with family and it's a great time to share cards with those you love.
Use Your Stuff: #394 Spring

Double D Challenge: Welcome Spring

 More cards with leftovers from earlier projects. Die cut bunnies were cut with Cameo. Pink  Bunny tails are round circles of fuzzy Velcro with adhesive backs found in a drawer in the studio. The Bunny in the Basket is an PSX stamp from 1990.  How fun it is to use up leftovers. Feels like I am being productive to clean up some of these supplies.

Stay safe and well! Have a great day!

Snow Bunny

Hello! It's a snowy morning here in Ohio so I thought this would be an appropriate card to post.  I printed the Snow Bunny digi from my stash of Meljens images on white CS and colored the cute image with Copics and a bit of snow with a Snow Marker for texture. Added some stickles to her fuzzy hat and metallic silver to her buttons.  Trimmed the image with a rectangle die and attached to mat of pink CS, layer of striped pattern paper(old SU), and card base of the GKD pink CS. Finished with heat embossed sentiment (old Creative  Clear Stamp) using Silver EP.  I chose this image because of her long scarf.

Bunny Artist

Hello!  I have been MIA for a couple of months but am back to share a card that I have made.  This card was made by printing a digital image Bunny Painting Egg from Craftin Desert Divas and colored with Copics and Glitter pens.  I added some GKD washi tape in neon colors and added to a Turquoise card base.  I wrote the sentiment with an orange Copic trying to make it look as if it was painted with a brush by the bunny.

Bunny and Blooms

Hello!   While searching through some old supply stash, I found this Rabbit in some precut dies from Diecuts With a View.  I added some doodling on his face and pink ink on his ears to give him some personality.  I cut some flowers with Memory Box Splendid Clarkia die and a label with a Spellbinders Die that I stamped with a Hero Arts Easter Greetings.  I assembled these elements with a Grass Green(GKD) card base and a layer of MME Striped paper.  I added some hands to the bunny so that he could "hold" the greeting.  The result was a cute Eater card.

Here Comes the Easter Bunny

 

Welcome!  I am back to more timely seasonal cards with one for Easter.  I made this one with Silhouette Cut files of a bunny and Happy Easter words and added some items from  my leftover box....part of a green Flourish cut out  and part of a green Doily cut with a Cheery Lynn die.  I arranged all on a card base of Bazzill blue CS to come up with a simple card.  Have you ever seen a Blue-eyed bunny?
