Easter Friends

These cute cards were made using the Hand-Penned Memories & More Cards & Envelopes.  These cards and envelopes are currently on sale and will be retiring soon.
The inspiration for these cards came from a card made by Stephanie Steiner.

The Easter Friends stamp set was used to make these cards.  Once stamped on Basic White cardstock, they were colored using Stampin' Blends and then fussy cut.

The flowers are from the Meadow dies and the Honeybee Blooms dies.

The sentiments are from the Celebrating You and the Easter Friends stamp sets.

The Stitched So Sweetly dies were used for the background behind the bunnies and the duckling.  The Stitched So Sweetly dies will be retiring in June.

 I hope you have enjoyed looking at my card and have been inspired to try some of my ideas on your own.  If you are looking for a Stampin' Up! demonstrator, I would love it if you chose me as your demonstrator!  When you place an order in my online store you can earn Stampin’ Rewards that can be used for free and discounted products, or used toward your Starter Kit, if you are interested in becoming a Stampin' Up! demonstrator

Easter Bunny and Duckling Card - Day 4

This Easter card is the fourth card in a series of five Easter cards.

The card was made using the Easter Friends stamp set. The Easter Friends stamp set is available in the January - June 2022 Mini Catalog.

The bunny was stamped in Smoky Slate ink and colored using a Light Smoky Slate Stampin' Blends.  Once colored, I colored over the bunny again using a Stampin' Blends Color Lifter.  I love the way the Color Lifter blends the Stampin' Blends ink.

The masking technique was used to make this card.  The bunny was stamped first on the card front panel and then again on a piece of post-it note.  The post-it note bunny was fussy cut and then placed over the bunny that had been stamped on the front panel.   

Next the duckling was stamped in Smoky Slate ink.  Once stamped the mask was removed from the bunny and the duckling was colored using a Light and Dark Mango Melody Stampin' Blends.  The ducklings beak and feet were colored with a Dark Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blends.  The ducklings eyes were colored with a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker.

As you can see, using the masking technique gives the appearance that the duckling is behind the bunny.

The grass was stamped in Garden Green ink and is from the Easter Friends stamp set.

The Flirty Flamingo flower is from the Loose Flower Flourishes. 

The Happy Easter sentiment is from the Easter Friends stamp set and has been stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink.

I used the Stamparatus to stamp all of the images and sentiments on this card.

The Basic White front panel was cut out using the largest rectangle in the Stitched So Sweetly die set.

The flowered paper is from the Pattern Party Host Designer Series Paper(DSP).  The next layer is Flirty Flamingo cardstock, followed by Crushed Curry cardstock.  The card base is Thick Basic White cardstock.
Here's a peek at the inside of the card.  All of the cards in this series have the same design on the inside of the card.

The sentiment is from the Easter Friends stamp set and has been stamped in Tuxedo Black Memento ink.

The chick was stamped in Mango Melody ink and then colored using Light and Dark Daffodil Delight Stampin' Blends.  Its beak and feet were colored using a Dark Pumpkin Pie Stampin' Blend.
