Daisy

April 3, 2023

Hello everyone Jackie here today, spring has arrived at last so I am sharing this cheerful fun happy spring card using a mix of dies from Joset and new dies from Annette Green.

Step One:

Trim a panel of white card to 5 x 3.75″ and ink blend in the centre using Distress Oxide – tumbled glass.

Step Two:

Stamp out the sentiment toward the bottom, here I have used Versafine Clair ink morning dew.

Step Three:

Die cut the daisies from set 2027 Stemmed Flowers then snip them apart. Add a yellow inked centre and a little green ink on the leaf ends.

Step Four:

Add the flowers to the prepared panel, glue a few flat and a few with a foam pad for texture.

Step Five:

Add two grass edges die cut from set 2022 Lace Borders, glue one directly over the stem ends then add the other just below using tiny foam pads.

Step Six:

Die cut and build the bunny using set 1929. Use pink card adding pink ink around the edges, use a black fine liner and white gel pen to add features to the bunnies face.

Step Seven:

Fix the bunny in place adding another daisy in the bunnies hands to finish.

Thank you for stopping by today, I hope I have inspired you today using one of my favourite character dies. You will be able to purchase Annette Greens new collection Everything’s Blooming at your favourite ECD stockist.

Happy crafting – Jackie x

Happy Spring

March 8, 2021

It’s time for another group theme on our blog today. This time we would like to inspire you with some beatiful work around the theme “Spring”. We asked our designers to create some colorful projects or projects that remind them of Spring. Let’s see what they created!

Joseph Nguyen created this beautiful card using a combination of dies from the Fantasy Flowers collection by Anita Izendoorn. He also created a Koala using the Koala die set who sits beautiful in the center of the card.
When we think about Spring, for many people Easter comes up and so it did for Katelyn Grosart. She created this beautiful egg shaped card using the Elegant Easter Egg Large die, the Large and Small Flowers and the Triple Leaves. The “happy easter” is from the Words 2 – Happy Holidays set.
Lisanne Geerdink made this beautiful insert for her planner. She added a picture of little flowers that just started to bloom. A great reminder that Spring has arrived. To decorate her page she used the Blooming Branches die set.
Karen Ostergard created this beautiful card that will definately put a smile on your face. The card has some lovely pastel colors with the flowers so vibrant and pretty. For the background she used the Cubic Background die.
EK Gorman created this colorful Happy Easter card using the Sping Basket die. She used a combination of Silk Microfine Glitters for the grass and eggs in and around the basket. So pretty!
Tina Guigui made this beautiful card using the cut-outs from the Floral Burst Background die. Love this technique and the way she colored. Tina also made another card where she used the actual die cut that you can find on her blog. For the sentiment she used the Spring Sentiments.
Karen Gerber created this beautiful Spring inspired card using a combination of dies and stamps. For the flowers she used the Florals 5 and the tags are from Planners Essentials 26 and the Butterfly Pocket Insert. She also used the Background 1 stamp. What a pretty combination!
Tanja Kabel created this adorable card using the Leaf Pattern Background and the Fairy 2 dies. She also used some green Silk Microfine Glitter to add some sparkle to the background. Love this effect. The sentiment is from the Once Upon a Time Sentiment set.
Last but not least is this colorful cards created by Annette Green who also used the Spring Basket die for her card. She added some beautiful little flowers from Florals set 3 and some leaves from the Leaves and Branches. Love the coloring!
