Happy Easter Bunny
Happy Easter Bunny
(inside: wishing you many blessings this Easter)
This card was made with the die set called “Happy Easter Bunny” by Tutti Designs (TUTTI-502). There are lots of pieces (18!) that need to be glued down, but I think this die design is so clever and cute! (You can see how I attached these small die cut pieces HERE.)
I adhered the pieces on a panel of Blue Denim card stock (GKD) that was embossed with a Cuttlebug Swiss Dot embossing folder.
The patterned paper is “Linen Door Boy Plaid” by The Paper Studio. The inside sentiment is from the “Ink to Paper – Just Sentiments: Easter Mini Stamp Set” by Papertrey Ink.

Gold Cross for Easter
Gold Cross for Easter
(inside: Wishing you a blessed Easter)
A die cut, some patterned paper, and lots of patience for the gluing…
This card was made with a beautiful cross and frame die (unbranded), Gina K Designs Metallic Gold card stock, and American Crafts Pressed Flower Paper (#341334). The cross in the center is a separate piece that can be used alone or tucked in the frame as I did on the card above.
The inside sentiment is from the “Ink to Paper – Just Sentiments: Easter Mini Stamp Set” by Papertrey Ink. Bazzill Butter Mints card stock was used for the card base.

More Copper and Kraft (Valentine’s Day and Sympathy Cards)
More Copper and Kraft (Valentine’s Day and Sympathy Cards)
I loved the combination of copper and Kraft so much and still had the supplies out on my desk after making my Copper Leaves card, so I decided to make a few more cards…
The sympathy card above was made with the “Magnolia Blossoms” stencil by Crafters Workshop (#TCW6X6-815S), gel medium, and Hero Arts Copper embossing powder. The greeting is from the “Sympathy Duo” stamp set from Gina K Designs (retired?) and was stamped with Versafine Onyx Black ink. The Kraft card stock was also from Gina K Designs.

This Valentine’s Day card was done by placing the “Flourish” stencil by Tim Holtz (THS-032) over a heart shaped mask cut with a die from the Ecstacy Crafts/Nellie Snellen Heart set MFD060 before applying the gel medium and copper embossing powder. The greeting is from a stamp set called “Sealed with a Kiss” by Paper Pretties (no longer available).

Diagonal Split Panel Valentine’s Day Card (and another CAS design)
Diagonal Split Panel Valentine’s Day Card (and another CAS design)
This 5×7 Valentine’s Day card is similar to the diagonal split panel cards I posted previously and features the gorgeous patterned paper called “Moonstruck” by American Crafts (#320318) along with a greeting from the Hampton Art (SC0744) stamp (and die) set.
Diagonal split panel cards are quick and easy to make and can be adapted to any holiday or occasion by simply choosing different patterned paper, an appropriate greeting, and as many (or few) embellishments as desired.
Here is a video tutorial on how to do this technique, although as I mentioned in my previous post, I changed mine up a bit by matting my finished panel and changing the angle/measurements of my cuts. I’ve also seen variations where the solid panels are popped up with foam tape and where the center portion is hand-stamped.

This next card seemed too simple to get its own post – lol!
I whipped up a few of these “Clean and Simple” cards for my kids who think it kind of silly that I make and send them Valentine’s Day cards at all but who enjoy the “little something” I put inside – lol!
This A2 sized CAS card features the heart stamp from the Hero Arts “Stamp Your Story – Brush” set along with a greeting from the “Sealed With a Kiss” set from Paper Pretties (both no longer available). The texture stamp behind the heart was unmarked and was stamped off to keep it subtle.
Gina K Designs Soft Stone ink and Edible Eggplant card stock was used (not black as it appears in the photo!!) along with Blackberry Bliss ink from Stampin’ Up.
