Hi there my sweet crafty friends! Happy Easter Week! I hope you have some fun activities planned with friends and family. The sun is shining here and it's supposed to be warm for Easter weekend. Yay! A good dose of sunshine does a person good! My husband had his surgery last Friday and everything went well and he is healing on schedule. Yay for that - what a relief and blessing!! I can't wait to celebrate Easter!
Today I'm here to share a cheery Easter card made The Greetery supplies. This card is also over on The Greetery Blog today! I made this card with some brand new supplies, and some of my previously released favorite supplies! Since it's close to Easter, I really wanted to use those cute lamb dies from the latest release...so I combined them with the awesome Tartan Plaid stencils and the Easter Jubilee dies. I used a fresh Easter color palette of pink, yellow and aqua too!
My finished card is an A2 card base of white. I layered just a smidge of yellow, then my plaid layer, a vellum layer, and my top white layer.
Here's a side view of my layers.... I assembled my Baby Face Lambs by die cutting white, cream and grey cardstocks and gluing the parts together. I added small accents of Copic Markers to the ears and bodies. I love those faces and cheeks that come in the Baby Face Stamp Set - they bring the critters to life!
I die cut the word Easter, from the Easter Jubilee set, in aqua to match the plaid. When I assembled the card, I used foam squares to pop up parts of it for a polished look. I added a couple of pink heart accents too!
To make this card, my first step was making my plaid background. I used my large and small blender brushes with three shades of Distress Oxide Inks. The Tartan Plaid Diagonal stencils are really so easy to use and produce a perfect result every time. Love how my spring plaid came out! It just screams Easter!!
Wishing you happy Easter Greetings and a very happy Easter week!!! XOXO

Wanda, what an adorable card! I am loving the background you created- it makes me happy. I want to try to make one myself! (Embarrassing that I've never used that stencil.) Hope your husband is doing well!
