My first Easter card....

Its kind of funny - there is still an impressive amount of snow here, but I really felt like making an Easter card today.....I love those retrosketches! This week is another pretty one to use! I first was contemplating a one layer card, but in the end I decided on some dimension....



I pulled out my CTMH sets for this card. I used two sets - Easter Wishes Holiday and A Hop. 


Popped up the eggs after fuzzy cutting them on foam tape. I also bent the sentiment. Liked it curved better than straight..... I hope you like it too!


I am also linking this card with Addicted to Stamps and More - Holiday Cards

Cute card Cornelia - and the bent sentiment works really well.

I did smile about UHU glue. We can get it here in the UK easily but I clearly remember using it when I lived in Germany. It's great stuff. Hugs

That is one simply yet so beautiful Easter card. The saying Simplicity is beauty goes pretty perfect on this. Just don't forget to include your warmest Easter messages on them and it would come out perfect!

Katzelkraft - Stampotique Raven

Hi Everyone, Do you know that   Katzelkraft has aquired Stampotique stamps? This fun raven is designed by Daniel Torrente (#6314). I used an old background from my stashs.  I stamped the bird and colored it with alcohol ink markers.  I brushed distrss ink onto the background and added some pattern with the   Mandala Magic stencil  from Funky Fossil Designs.I used one of the border stamps on the left for more interest.  Stamped the sentiment  and doodled a frame around the sentiment.Added a googly eye to the bird and drew in some eye lashes.  The stamps I used are from the following sets: Spiral Borders - KTZ286,  Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276  (FRANCE) Spiral Borders  - KTZ286 , Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276 (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  - fur or feathers

Combined So Suzy and The Ton Blog Hop

Hi Everyone, I am sooooo excited to be part of this amazing event - a combined hop between So Suzy Stamps and The Ton! I have been eyeing The Ton stamps and dies for quite a while - they are just gorgeous! And So Suzy - well you have seen their stamps on my blog - they are simply fabulous! I also love that they are made from rubber - its different stamping with them. Its much better for generational stamping and they don't stick to your paper when you use your Misti. You may have arrived from the fabulous  Eunji - its a hard act to follow her.... I got those gorgeous  Peonies Dies  from The Ton and die cut them with water color paper. Spritzed Dylusion inks on a sheet of plastic and dipped the dies into the colors. Mounted them onto black card stock. Added the So Suzy Birthday sentiment - heat embossed in white. Lastly I added a strip of envelope liner paper at the bottom. Here are my supplies: So Suzy Birthday sentiment ,  Peo...
