Okay, now we've got all through the details of the hop, let's move onto the card I made.
I used the new Easter Friends, Stitched Notes Dies and Scalloped Square Tag Dies and Fresh Garden Sequin Mixes (4mm & 6mm) to create my projects today.
To begin my card today I
stamped out all the images I wanted to use from the Easter Wishes stamp set on
some white cardstock with Memento Tuxedo Black ink. I then used various Copic
Markers to colour in my images. Aren't these images just the cutest?! Anyway,
for my colour inspiration today I used the Fresh Garden Mix and pulled the
colours out of that to use on my card today. Once I had finished colouring I
used the coordinating dies to cut out all my images.
Once they were cut I could
move onto my background. I'm using five colours of Distress Ink for the
background today, again picking colours from the same sequin mix. I used Spiced
Marmalade, Picked Raspberry, Wilted Violet, Peacock Feathers and Twisted Citron
and water-coloured a line of each onto a piece of watercolour cardstock cut
with the rectangle die from Stitched Notes.
Once I was happy with how
my lines looked and they were vibrant enough I heat set them with my heat tool.
I then flicked some water droplets on top and picked it up with a paper towel
to give that water splotch effect and then dried it once more.
For my sentiment I stamped
the 'Happy Easter' sentiment from the same stamp set with some black ink in the
top left hand corner. I used my MISTI to help stamp it twice to get a nice
black impression. Once my panel was done I could adhere my images. I used some
foam tape to adhere them all together at the bottom of my card.
For my card base, I was
tossing up which colour of cardstock to use. I couldn't decide between the two
colours so I used them both. This is a trick I use all the time and it gives
the card something extra I think. Before adhering the two colours together I
ran them through an embossing folder from WRMK called Quilted. I love the extra
texture it gives! I then adhered the blue piece onto my card base and then the
green piece that I cut at a diagonal on top. I then used a piece of fun foam
behind the main panel and adhered it on top to finish it up. For a last
finishing touch I pulled the same Fresh Garden Sequin Mix and adhered a few on
top of their coordinating colours on the background.
I really wanted to make a
shaker tag from the new Scalloped Square Tags as well. So I die cut two of the
largest tags out of white cardstock. Then I die cut a square out of one of them
in the centre. I adhered acetate behind the one with the window cut out of and
added two layers of foam tape around it. I picked out the Fresh Garden Sequin
Mix once more and added some 4mm and 6mm inside and then used the Daffodil Seed Beeds to add some inside too for the noise of a shaker. Once my tag was filled
I removed the foam tape and added the solid die cut tag on top.
I had a couple of left over
images from before so I added them on top of the acetate with foam tape also. I
used my hole punch to punch a hole at the top of the tag and threaded some
ribbon through. I then used some old twine from Pretty Pink Posh also and tied
a bow to hold my ribbon on and that finished up both my card and tag today.
I hope you enjoyed and there is a video that goes along with todays
post, too! The link is below as well as the video.
