Sending Easter Smiles

Hi Everyone

Just popping in quickly to share my card for the Freshly Made Sketches challenge.

I used the Peek-a-boo Bunny from Poppy Stamps, a sentiment from an older Simon Says Stamp set and an Echo Park Paper stencil. The papers are also by Echo Park.

Thanks for stopping by!

Still sharing my Easter cards! I used @poppystamps dies for this one, together with my very first action wobbler! #poppystamps #poppystampsdies #clearlybesottedstamps #distressink #eastercard #actionwobbler #actionwobble #handmadecards #cardmakersofinstagram

Happy Easter friends! Here’s the card I made for my lovely mum! What started as an idea for an egg wreath turned into quite a production! I ended up using 60 eggs! 😳This card is pretty big - 18cms square! The egg dies are from the @poppystamps whittle collection and I also used a @simonsaysstamp Christmas wreath to create the twigs! Have a good day, all! 🐣 🐰 🥚 #poppystamps #poppystampsdies #simonsaysstamp #simonsaysstampdies #eastercard #cardmakersofinstagram #handmadecards

Hello friends! Another day, another Easter card! This @simonsaysstamp egg die is a few years old now, but it’s still so much fun to play with! I used some @ginakdesigns inks and the @colorthrowdown colour palette (yellow, orange and blue). The sentiment die is by @poppystamps. I’m also entering this into the current #sssflickrchallenge (die cutting). #simonsaysstamp #simonsaysstampdies #poppystamps #poppystampsdies #colorthrowdown #ctd539 #handmadecards #eastercard #cardmakersofinstagram #inlaiddiecutting

Happy Good Friday friends! I don’t tend to make many cute cards.... except at Easter time it seems!! I just can’t resist those sweet bunny dies! For today’s card I used dies from @memoryboxco, @lawnfawn and @simonsaysstamp.

I just can’t stop using the super cute @simonsaysstamp Peeking Chick and Bunny dies! Here’s another quick Easter card I created this evening - inspired by the talented @shariartcarroll The sentiment is by @clearlybesotted . I’m entering this into the current #sssflickrchallenge - die cutting. #simonsaysstamp #simonsaysstampdies #inkblending #distressinkblending #distressink #eastercard #handmadecards #cardmakersofinstagram

Hello everyone! I’m still working on my Easter cards and here’s one of the cards I made today! I created a few ink blended panels with @altenewllc ink and an @echoparkpaper stencil which I cut with the @simonsaysstamp wavy egg die. Many thanks to @laurafadora for her post it note trick to corral all those little egg pieces! I added the cute SSS peeking chick die and a sentiment from @poppystamps . The background was created using a @simonsaysstamp embossing plate.

Happy Friyay people! Today I pulled out a couple of @poppystamps dies to make another Easter card. The little peek-a-boo bunny is actually attached to a frame which I cut off. I kept his little paws though because they are just so cute! I added a few eggs cut from an older @mariannedesign_ dies. The sentiment is from a @clearlybesotted set. I’m entering this into the current @poppystamps challenge. #poppystamps #poppystampsdies #mariannedesign #mariannedesigndies #handmadecards #eastercard #easterbunny #cardmakersofinstagram

It’s always a good day when a @simonsaysstamp order arrives and today’s goodies included the fabulous @heroarts Papel Picardo background die which I have been trying to get forever! So if course I had to try it out tonight! I used it with a couple of older @simonsaysstamp stamps and the current @colorthrowdown challenge (aqua, mint, dark pink and green). I’m also entering this into the current #sssflickrchallenge and the #ssswchallenge. #heroarts #heroartsconfettidies #heroartsdies #simonsaysstamp #colorthrowdown #ctd538 #eastercard #easterbunnies #cardmakersofinstagram #handmadecards

Hi everyone! First of all, thank you so much for all the likes and comments on my previous card! You are all so kind! 💕 Today I’ve been playing with one of my favourite Easter @memoryboxco dies - the Waltham Egg. After colouring it, I applied a generous coat of #inkon3pixiedust before adhering it to two additional die cuts for added dimension. I smooshed some #distressink onto a die cut to create the egg base. I broke out my @official_basicgrey papers and added them to my card base as per the current #casethissketchchallenge sketch. Finally I stamped an older @simonsaysstamp sentiment and added some #nuvodrops. I’m entering this into the current @memoryboxco challenge (clean and simple) as well as the #casethissketch challenge. #memorybox #memoryboxco #memoryboxdies #basicgreypaper #simonsaysstamp #handmadecards #eastercard #cardmakersofinstagram

Hello! I’ve been looking for a different way to use the new @simonsaysstamp Peeking Rabbit and Chick dies since I got them a few weeks ago. Then on Friday I stumbled across an old @teamspellbinders background plate that I picked up at a craft fair last year! Perfect for my new dies! I added a rejected rainbow background and an @lawnfawn egg plus a sentiment from an older SSS set. I’m entering this into the current #ssswchallenge (animal antics) and the #sssflickrchallenge (anything goes). #simonsaysstamp #simonsaysstampdies #spellbinders #spellbindersdies #distressink #distressinkblending #eastercard #handmadecards #cardmakersofinstagram

Hi! It’s been a rather chilly, grey day here today, perfect for crafting! I had a lot of fun colouring the @mamaelephant wild meadow stamp today! I met the lovely mama elephant team at #simonsayscreate last month-it was so great to meet the people behind the brand 💕 Anyway, once coloured, I gave the panel a generous spritz with some watered-down #inkon3pixiedust. Hope you can see the shimmer? The frame die is by @averyellestamps and the sentiment is from a retired @simonsaysstamp set. I’m entering this into the current @freshlymadesketches challenge. #mamaelephant #mamaelephantstamps #simonsaysstamp #averyelle #averyelledies #twinklingh2o #pixiedust #handmadecards #cardmakersofinstagram

Hey @heroarts ! You’re FABULOUS! As soon as I saw the post from Hero Arts today, I decided to make a card to reflect how I feel about the company that got me into this wonderful world of cardmaking! Its leaders seem to try to balance business and kindness/generosity/transparency - all admirable traits. But quite honestly, it has mostly been about the quality of their products and amazing designs for me. Anyway, I fell in love with the #mymonthlyhero September 2018 kit as soon as I saw it! I have been stalking the website for a while - I couldn't believe that it hadn't sold out and I finally snapped one up last month. While it is clearly an autumn set, I decided to repurpose it for spring, inspired by the fabulous @colorthrowdown challenge colour palette (purple, yellow, green and grey). I turned a couple of sprigs into two beautiful yellow spring shrubs, kerria and forsythia, which was actually the easiest part of the card! Everything else seemed to go wrong - even stamping the sentiment! But I got there in the end! #heroarts #heroartsstamps #heroartsdies #mymonthlyherokit #twinklingh2o #distressink #colorthrowdown #colorthrowdownchallenge #ctd537 #handmadecards #cardmakersofinstagram

Happy almost-Friday! With Easter only a few weeks away I decided it was time to dust down my Easter supplies as I do like to make and send Easter cards! I unearthed this cute stamp set from @pinkandmain and decided to make a very CAS card with this week’s #cascoloursandsketches colour combo! I selected my go-to @altenewllc inks and then I spotted my new @ginakdesigns inks which I’ve been wanting to try out for the last couple of weeks! So I ended up making two cards with both inks! The verdict? Both stamp beautifully and I love them both! Oh and I also used two different ‘liquid glitters’ - the #nuvoaquashimmer pen and #inkon3pixiedust! Both lovely but oh my goodness! Look at that pixie dust shimmer! Now I just want to #pixiedustallthings !! #pinkandmain #pinkandmainstamps #lawnfawn #lawnfawndies #altenew #altenewinks #ginakinks #handmadecards #cardmakersofinstagram #cascard #eastercard

Hello friends! I’m having one of those rare days when I seem to be super productive and crossing tons off my ‘to do’ list! I even made a card this evening! I’m playing along with the current #casethissketch challenge. I used the fabulous Prettiest Pomander set by @altenewllc - I played with it at #simonsayscreate and of course I had to have it after that!!! The sentiment is by @heroarts and the embossing folder is by @creativeexpressionscraft. Funny story, when I saw @jennifermcguireink using it last weekend, I started to look for it online... until I discovered that I bought it on January 🙄. Well at least I found out BEFORE I bought the folder I suppose! #altenew #altenewstamps #altenewllc #altenewinks #heroarts #heroartsstamps #creativeexpressions #casethissketchchallenge #cascard #layeredstamping #embossingfolder #dryembossing #handmadecards #cardmakersofinstagram

Hello! It’s been a beautiful spring day here in London and across the Atlantic the cherry blossoms around the Washington DC tidal basin have reached peak bloom! They look amazing! I was there a couple of years ago for a very different peak bloom as the weather knocked out half the buds before they even had a chance to develop. Still looked great to me though and I got some atmospheric photos too! Anyway it seemed fitting for me to finally ink up the @ellenhutsonllc mondo Sakura stamp! Such a lovely image to colour! I paired it with a @pennyblackstamps border die and a @mamaelephant sentiment for my take on the current @freshlymadesketches challenge! Have a wonderful week! #ellenhutsonllc #essentialsbyellen #pennyblackinc #pennyblackdies #mamaelephant #mamaelephantdies #freshlymadesketches #cardchallenge #cardmakersofinstagram #handmadecards
