The Rubber Buggy: Easter Cards

5:00 AM

Hi everyone, Steph Ackerman here today with lots of fun products from the store. Please visit the store for all the fun products I've used today.

Have you seen the new Lindy's Stamp Gang products available in the store? They are absolutely stunning and such a wide variety of products.

I've used Shimmer Magicals - Drop Dead Diva pigment powders. I began by spritzing a sheet of Strathmore Watercolor Paper with water then dropped the powders on the paper.

Once the powders were dropped on the paper, I used a paint brush to move them about the paper. Then I spritzed additional water and moved the paper so the colors would run.

Once I liked the effect, I heat set the paper.

I created 2 cards from Bazzill Licorice cardstock then cut the spritzed panel to fit each card. Each card was then wrapped with May Arts Sheer Ribbon.

Stamping Bella's Bunny and Her Daffodil was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and then colored with Copic Markers. Each image was then die cut with Lawn Fawn's Stitched Rectangle dies. While the die remained in place, I colored around the first image with Weathered Wood Distress Ink using the Ranger Ink Blending Tool.

The second image was inked as the first image, but this time I used Milled Lavender Distress Ink. I love the white edge of the cardstock that shows.

Each image was matted with Licorice cardstock then added to the card with Scrapbook Adhesives 3D Foam Adhesives for dimension.

The sentiment, Just for You, is from the Wild Rose Studio Antique Roses stamp set, was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, matted with Licorice cardstock and added to the card.

Happy Easter and stay well.

Thank you for visiting.

This card I started by pulling some paper layers with a mix of great colours and prints. I then die cut in white cardstock to make the designs and sentiment pop.

I also used cardstock mats for colour, depth and dimension. Using ribbon I wrapped it around the upper piece a few time and tied it off. I then tied a matching bow and glued it on top of the other wrapped piece.
