SHC - Happy Easter

... Morning. I'm here with my Seven Hills Craft blog post. Today I've a simple Easter card to share with you:


Stamps: Lawn Fawn - Better Days, Simply Celebrate Spring, Magic Spring Messages, Scripty Autumn Sentiments, Celebration Scripty Sentiments
Inks: Gina K - Key Lime, Soft Stone; Versafine - Onyx Black; Versafine Clair - Nocturne
Dies: Lawn Fawn - Better Days, Simply Celebrate Spring, Magic Spring Messages
Accessories: White Card; SU DP - Daffodil Delight; Lawn Fawn - Clover Background Stencils, Hillside Stencils; Copic Markers; Clear Embossing Powder; Nuvo - Clear & Midas Aqua Shimmer Brushes

I'm submitting this card to Cupcake Inspirations Challenge - CIC#541 where they want to see bunnies, and to Addicted to CAS - ATCAS#217 where they want animals.


I had fun with this card. I started by creating the clover background hillside. I first masked off the top of the card with a hillside mask and then placed the clover stencils over the top. I used one shade of green ink, applied lightly for the first stencil and with a heavier hand for the second stencil. Next, I used my MISTI to stamp the bunny, some easter eggs, flowers and the greeting (sun) on white card. I removed the images and coloured them with Copic markers. I returned them to the MISTI and restamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink and heat embossed with clear powder. I used the matching dies to cut out the images. The bunny image has a heat on the belly, so I simply used a scalpel to cut under the arms and slipped in an easter egg. The easter eggs cut in a strip, so I cut them down to small groups and adhered them onto the card. To make the 'sun' I coloured the card yellow, and then stamped on top. I finished the front with the addition of some clear and gold tinted shimmer. Inside the card, I cut a mat layer of bright yellow design paper. On the white panel I created the greeting using words from two different sets and added some of the left-over die cuts.


That's all from me for today. See you again soon.
