British Springtime Vintage

With the royal wedding tomorrow I felt inspired to create something with a British flare.

Not quite the traditional colors but I wanted to use up some scraps of Springtime Vintage designer series paper. I printed out the saying on Very Vanilla card stock and stamped and cut out the crown from the Artistic Etchings stamp set.

The Springtime Vintage paper is available til April 30 - that's only 2 more days!

Easter Blossoms

The first time a posted a card using the Easter Blossoms stamp set I was longing for Spring.............well, still waiting! It's snowing. I know that I shouldn't be surprised, but I always am.
There is hope though. The tulips are peeking up and will eventually bloom.

We picked a bad time to have a new heating system installed! Haven't frozen yet and should have the heat pump working tonight and everything finished tomorrow.

Anyway, on to the cards. I copied this card from Julie B's Stampin' Space. I just loved the simplicity of it.

This one uses Baja Breeze seam binding ribbon, Crumb Cake, Baja Breeze, & Whisper White card stock and Early Espresso, Crumb Cake & Baja Breeze classic ink.

Then I made this one with the Rose Red instead of the Baja Breeze.

Note that the eggs are colored in with the accent color using the classic ink and a blender pen - it has a nice fine tip for those little spaces.

The Easter Blossom stamp set is in the Occasions Mini catalog and is available till April 30.

More Spring is Blossoming cards

So far these are my favorite cards I have made with the Four Frames stamp set and the Paisley Petals paper from the Spring is Blossoming promotion. I used River Rock and Not Quite Navy card stock on this card. I ran a piece of River Rock card stock through my Big Shot with the Finial Press embossing folder and then rubbed Whisper White craft ink over the top of the embossing to make it stand out more.

I love the stamp with the little bird from the Four Frames stamp set - isn't it cute?

I stamped the image in Early Espresso and added a little color to the bird and ground with Crumb Cake ink and an Aqua Painter. Thought the saying "it's the little things" from You're a Gem stamp set worked well and then added the little button brads from Vintage Trinkets to finish it off. I really love this card!
