Easter Greetings

Yes it is only January, but when you do classes one works ahead.  So....on to Easter!

The stamp set "Fable Friends" has some cute characters that can be used for Easter, new baby, or even children's birthday.  My card today focuses on Easter.


Meet Mother Goose wearing an outfit in Highland Heather. The outfit is actually 3D as the image was stamped nd coloured twice and the second image had the outfit fussy cut and then added on the original image using dimensionals.


The clouds in the sky are from "Let the Good Times Roll" and are second generation stamping using Balmy Blue ink.  The full strength ink was too overpowering.

Laying Oval Framelits were used to die cut the image with the scallop oval cut in Gorgeous Grape. The two layers were adhered together using dimensionals and then added to the card front.

The card base is Highland Heather, layered with Whisper White embossed with the Tin Tile Embossing folder.  A strip of the new Gingham Gala DSP (smaller pattern) is added towards the left side.  Two pieces of the SAB organza ribbon are placed on the left side of this strip - one in Highland Heather, and the other in Mango Melody - the latter picking up the colours of the beak and feet of the goose.  Bows in their respective colours are added at the top.

The sentiment, stamped in Highland Heather, is punched with the Everyday Label punch.  It was reinserted into the punch a couple of times to get it to the size I wanted.
