Happy Easter
Hello crafters! I started with a piece of white card and used Picked Raspberry distress ink and used a smoothie to work the colour from the edge towards the centre of the card, leaving a lighter area for the egg. I then used the Elemental Swirl stamp and inked it with Black Archival ink and worked my way all the way around the card with the swirls. Next I cut the Stained Glass Tulip Egg outer die from black gloss card. I cut the inside egg part of the die in black card. I coloured the egg with markers but used a soft white pencil in each section to give highlights. I cut the Happy Easter sentiment in black and added it to a white shadow backing piece, then attached it below the egg. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8" x 8" in size. All for now. Sue x
Good Morning Sue and all that visit this morning. A lovely Easter card today Sue. I think it's a pity that Easter cards are not as popular as other occasion cards. There are some lovely Easter cards out there. Some are religious while some are just lovely floral and spring type. Thankyou Sue for all your master pieces ... Especially this lovely stained glass Easter card. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone. Please stay safe and well 🙏. Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds
Good afternoon Sue and all Wilsonettes, another fabulous Easter card, easy for paper piecing or from adding acetate behind which has been coloured over, brilliant, thank you so much for sharing with us. Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
