Easter Projects

Hello! Happy Sunday night to you. I wantedto share with you two Easter ideas. These are projects that we made at yesterday's workshop. The first card is a basket made out of a rounded tab punch and the small and large oval punches for the handle. See those cute little eggs inside? They're small oval halves. The texture on the basket is the texture plate called Weave. A bit of grass and the flowers on the background from Inspired by Nature and you're done! Pretty easy card.
This second card is a CASE from the Idea Book & Catalog. The main cardstock was rolled with the Scatter Sunshine jumbo wheel in Barely Banana. The designer paper is from the Level 1 designer pack. This stamp set is called A Good Egg. The Eyelet Border Punch makes a great edge and a strip of Regal Rose is adhered to the edge of the inside.

Well, that's it for now. Thanks for stopping by the Stamping Station once again. I'd love to hear from you...show me what you've been up to.

Blessings,
Julie

You Crack Me Up!

What can you do with Perfect Plum, Pink Pirouette, and Kiwi Kiss? Make an Easter card! This is a stamp set that is new to me, but not to the catalog. Isn't that little chick cute??? This stamp set is called A Good Egg and I'm really loving it. I stamped the chick and egg in Basic Black (big mistake - should have used StazOn for the watercoloring) and cut them out after coloring them with ink from the lids and my Aquapainter.
The white background behind the chick and egg is stippled. Stippled? Take a stipple brush, ink it on your stamp pad, then dab the bristles on your cardstock. I stippled with all three colors so that it would have an interesting texture. The smaller Kiwi Kiss cardstock was run through my Big Shot with my Priceless dry embossing template. Yup! Use the template, texture mat and pad, one cutting mat and the bread board.
Now, don't forget the glitter! For the easiest application, use the 2-Way Glue Pen and a Powder Pal tray. Doesn't this look great with the glitter? I think it really finished off the design.
