Cute Card Thursday - Easter

Our theme at Cute Card Thursday this week is 'Easter'. 
As always, we welcome your own interpretation. 

I used the super cute 'Easter Bunny' digital stamp from Whimsy Stamps for this card. This is an image from artist Sylvia Zet - still a favorite of mine.

I printed out the image and colored it in with my Spectrum Noir Tri-blend markers (coordinating it with the colors of my chosen patterned cardstock). I then fussy cut it out.

I cut a panel of white cardstock measuring 4" x 5.25". 

I cut the patterned paper strip using Whimsy Stamps Eggstra Bunnies 6x6 paper pack, and adhered it onto a slightly larger blue cardstock (which coordinates with the  color in the patterned cardstock). I adhered this onto the white cardstock panel.

I stamped the sentiment onto the same blue cardstock from my stash, using Whimsy Stamps Eggstra Special stamp set. I then heat embossed it with white embossing powder. I hand cut the banner shape and adhered it onto the white cardstock panel.

I adhered the panel onto a standard A2 white card base, and finished off the card by popping up the image on foam dots.

This is a very quick and easy card to create.

I love the fun dragons by Dustin Pike. I used Dragon Begging and Playful Dragon digital stamps, available from Whimsy Stamps, for this card. 

I added the images into my silhouette design studio, along with the sentiment from Dragon Birthday (now retired) and printed them out onto white cardstock.

I cut the panel down to 5.25" x 5.25", and added it onto a panel of designer cardstock measuring 5.375" x 5.375".

Whimsy Stamps March Digital Stamp Release

It's the start of a new month - so that means a new digital stamp release from Whimsy Stamps! I used the adorable Dragon Belly Rubs for this card.

I printed out the image and then colored him in with my Spectrum Noir Tri-blend markers. I added some gel pen detailing and then fussy cut him out.

I made the blue patterned background by using the Whimsy Stamps Farmhouse Basket stencil with Hero Arts Unicorn Pigment ink and Faded Jeans distress oxide. I stenciled first with the blue ink and then moved the stencil slightly to create an offset pattern with the white. I love how this turned out. I then die cut the panel using Whimsy Stamps notched rectangles die.

For the white panel, I just using my score board to score the diagonal lines - super easy to create the embossed effect without embossing folders.

I die cut the frame using 2 rectangles and added it to the white panel, along with the blue patterned panel.

I stamped the sentiment using Whimsy Stamps Bunny Balloons stamp set. I die cut the banner using Whimsy Stamps Quick Strips dies.

I finished off the card by popping up the dragon on foam dots and adding some enamel dots from my stash.

this was all adhered onto a standard A2 navy card base.

Another great release this month...check out the Whimsy Stamps store for lots of great new digital images.
