... Good morning! Today's Easter card has a bit of bling. This one is for my aunt and uncle, safe to share it now as my family don't read my blog! Here's the card:
Stamps: Waltzingmouse Stamps - Nestie Eggs, Spring Baskets
Inks: Gina K - Blue Denim; Versafine Claire - Acorn, Morning Mist; Versamark
Dies: Spellbinders - Nested Eggs (S4-264) #4; WF - Dotted Sunburst
Accessories: White Card; SU Card - Very Vanilla; Copics; Shimmer Spray - Sparkle; Gems; Clear Embossing Powder
I'm submitting this to Color Hues - CH#83 - I do like these colours.
This card is a companion to the one I made for my Mum on Sunday. I cut a piece of cream card slightly smaller than an A2 note card and used the dotted sunburst die to cut a pattern in the card. I spritzed on a shimmer spray that has a slight gold tint and set it aside to dry. I used one of my favourite stamps sets from WMS. I stamped the largest egg onto cream card with Versamark and heat embossed with clear powder. I brushed on blue ink to reveal the lovely pattern on the Easter egg. I ended up using a smaller die to cut out the central part of the egg. I added a touch of darker blue ink around the edge of the egg. I adhered the egg to the cream panel and added them both the the A2 note card. I stamped a greeting and added that to the card. I finished the front of the card by adding some little crystal gems to the Easter egg.
Inside the card, I cut a mat layer of cream card. On the white panel I stamped a greeting and created a basket of Easter eggs. I love the colours - the card looks very elegant.
I'm off to the hairdresser this afternoon. I'm going to have some blonde highlights added to my hair - I'll share a photo later. Bye for now.
What a gorgeous image!
