Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!

These are so cute cards. Both of cards are 4 1/4" x 5 1/2".

Chick Egg

Last year, Melissa sent to me her Easter card and when I saw the card and I though it was so cute, Easter egg became chick with moving eyes. So this month, I wanted to make one card with the same concept. I cut dark Suede Brown cardstock paper at 4 ¼” x 11" and fold the card in half long way. I stamped the Easter egg with pink pastel on the white cardstock. That color is very rich fluid chalk, I love that. I have left over "Fancy" of the Blush Collection Pattern cardstock that I placed on the dark Suede Brown card. I put white on dark Suede Brown then trim near about 1/4". I put on dark Teal cardstock because it matched the color pattern "Fancy" of Blush Collection (and as you can see) match the colors of the flowers. I put on middle and right side. I put a teal ribbon with adhesive on the left side then I put a pink flower on the Teal ribbon near top. The reason I put different colors because they accented the Fancy “flowers” pattern. I stamped with “Easter blessings” with black ink below the Chick egg on the "Fancy" cardstock. Finally, I glued two moving eyes on the pink egg and I took my Zig black pen to draw of two chicken legs and beak near the eyes.

Flowers Tree with cute chick

I trimmed light Blush Red to 4 ¼” x 11” and fold in half for making a card. I took tree stamp with black ink on white cardstock then chick with black ink near a tree and again one more time for chick on small post-it-note. The reason I did because I wanted to place some colors on the white cardstock and I didn’t want the color on the chick. I cut the chick body out of the small post-it-note and put on the original chick's body on the white cardstock. I took my stipple brush with blue of shades as like the sky. Again I took other one stipple brush with green of shades as like the grass include “note post” on the chick. I cut from the Coluzzle Nested Circle Template on the white cardstock where it already on images and colors. Again with light Kiwi with two more lines “bigger size” from the white cardstock. I cut with scallop scissor for “big” light Kiwi. I glued the images of cardstock on the light Kiwi then again light Kiwi with adhesive on the light Blush Red card. I decorate with the small flowers on the tree and one smallest flower on the “grass” near the tree. I took my Zig black pen and drew a little of stem on the left. Careful! Then I glued smallest rhinestones on the small flowers. I remove the small note post from the chick and I colored from color pencils with yellow and little orange for the beak. I glue small Ivory ribbon bow top of the light Kiwi frame. I stamped “Easter blessings” below the picture frame on the light Blush Red.
