My Easter Cards

Easter Cards (I had to wait until everyone got their cards before I could post them)

Here are some of my Easter Cards I made. I used my Cricut Expressions and the cut files I got from Wanda over at http://myscraphappyplace.blogspot.com/ It was so fun to cut the Chick out and then put together a card. I used a retired CTMH stamp for the inside saying.

This card was made using the same Chick as above but made on a smaller card

This was so much fun!! I love these Stair Step Cards

Card Recipe:
I used the following CTMH stamp sets
Bunny Love
Speckled Eggs
March Word Puzzle
CTMH paper flowers with Create A Shade Pearl Paint.
Martha Stewart border picket fence punch
Nestibilities for the scallop circles
A misc stamp for the Happy Easter.
The paper is CTMH from the Emporium pack.

I used the following technique on the paper flowers. I started with white flowers. I used my CTMH markers and colored each of the flowers. Insert a brad. Then I took the Pearl Paint and brushed it over each of the flowers including the brads. Let dry and you have a nice pearlized look .

The CTMH ink and marker colors used were Heavenly blue, Lilac Mist, Sunny Yellow, Hollyhock, Key lime, Desert sand and Chocolate. I think that was all of them.



This was another card made using the Cricut and a cut file from Wanda as mentioned above. I love the Chicky legs hanging over the edge. This also was made using the Cuttlebug and one of my Fiskars Texture plates to make the design in the basket.
I hope you enjoyed seeing these even though Easter is over.
