This card is for my sister-in-law, whose birthday was at the end of March. She likes gold, but I couldn’t make gold flowers, so I settled for yellow, with a gold heat embossed sentiment and gold embellishments. The stencil and stamp combination are called Buds and Blossoms by Taylored Expressions, and the Sentiment Staples stamp set is also by Taylored Expressions. The inks are Simon Hurley’s Later Gator and Slippery When Wet, Ranger Archival Ink in Sunflower, and Gina K. Sweet Mango. I used Ranger’s Super Fine Detail Embossing Powder in Gold, and Gorgeous Gold Baubles from Trinity Stamps.

Thank you in pink
I was playing with embossing folders and came up with this card. The folder used is Circle Rings by Simon Says Stamp, and the inks used were Gina K. Bubblegum Pink, Altenew Puffy Heart, and Lawn Fawn Plastic Flamingo. The circle was cut with Taylored Expressions Stitched Circle Stacklets and the sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp’s CZ Designs Basic Trio.

Happy Easter!
I did some tone on tone stenciling using the Pretty Pink Posh Layered Eggs stencil and Bubblegum Pink, Peach Bellini, Lemon Drop, Applemint, Sea Glass, and Lovely Lavender inks from Gina K. I topped it with the Giant Happy Easter die from Lawn Fawn. I stacked several die cuts to give it dimension. I then trimmed it with the Large Rectangle Stackables from Lawn Fawn and attached to a mint panel from my stash with foam tape.

Lovely Lilacs
This card was created using Simon Says Stamp’s Lilac Clusters embossing folder and a die from the Scripty Quartet sentiment set by Gina K. Gina K. inks in Wild Lilac and Applemint were used to color the embossed image, and the shadow and mounting panel are Recollections cardstock.

Eggstra special Easter
I started with a panel of Lawn Fawn’s Ballet Slippers cardstock, cut with their Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables. I stamped the sentiment from Eggstra Special Easter, also by Lawn Fawn, with Versafine Onyx Black ink at the top. I stamped the bunnies and basket from the same set with Jet Black ink and colored them with Copic markers. The egg was cut from vellum with the Outside In Easter Egg Stackables. I glued the basket to the vellum and the vellum to the card, and popped the bunnies up with foam squares.

Éire go deo!
Which means Ireland Forever! It’s a few days early, but I wanted to share this St. Patrick’s Day card. I only used three shades of green instead of forty, but I still like the effect. Stamps are by Lawn Fawn, their Celebration Scripty Sentiments and Simply Celebrate Spring sets, along with their Noble Fir ink. The other two colors are Later Gator and Fake Plant, both by Simon Hurley for Ranger. I also used Ranger’s Super Fine Detail Embossing Powder in gold and Simon Says Stamp Gold Matte cardstock. The panels were cut with Lawn Fawn Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables, and the top panel was popped up on Altenew foam tape.

Spring love
This happy bunny couple is ready for Easter on this sweet Lawn Fawn card. All the solid cardstock is Lawn Fawn, and I also used their patterned papers from the Spiffy Speckles, Perfectly Plaid Remix, and Flower Market collections. Build-A-Bunny and Build-A-Bunny Accessories dies were used to cut out the bunnies and their clothing and accessories. The bunnies and background were assembled with liquid glue and then the panel was popped up on foam tape.

Spring has sprung!
I created this sweet spring card using Newton’s Nook’s Postage Layout die, Frames and Flags die, and Easter Postage Sampler stamps and dies. The images were colored with Prismacolor pencils and mounted on foam squares, and the yellow basket weave paper is from the Newton’s Nook Happy Easter pack. It certainly seems springlike here in Texas, with temperatures in the 80s!
A huge thank you to the Inky Paws Challenge team, who chose this card to be featured in the current challenge! It means a lot to me!

Quadrant eggs
This stamp and die set is by Pretty Pink Posh and called, appropriately enough, Easter Eggs. The sentiment is also from that set. The eggs were colored with Copic markers and mounted on thin foam squares.
