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
