Hi there, happy Easter to those who celebrate it!
I'm thrilled to be back today with this Easter themed slimline card inspired by the Halloween stockings card I made back in October 2025 and the Christmas stockings card I made back in October 2023. This time, the stockings are filled with carrots and chocolate bunnies, flowers have bloomed in the trees and I picked pastel colors to match with the Spring season.
I started off by stamping my images on 110lb Neenah solar white cardstock using Memento tuxedo black ink, I cut them all using the matching dies and colored everything with my alcohol markers. Here is a detailed list of the stamp sets I used: • Spring Birdhouses - branches • Holiday Stockings - stockings • Easter Signs - butterflies, bunny, chicks, greeting • Easter Wreath - chicks • Easter Icons - bows, small chicks, carrots, chocolate bunnies • Easter Greetings - tulips, daisies • Tea Time - flowers.
When the coloring was done, I added highlights and details to the images using a white gel pen, and then moved on to the background. I cut a large Slimline Peekaboo Windows panel out of Strathmore bristol smooth cardstock and masked the stitched edges off with washi tape. I used washi tape again to divide my panel in two sections. First a slim section at the bottom: I colored it with mowed lawn oxide ink, mixed rustic wilderness oxide ink with water and added green splatters to my grass border.
Next I covered the rest of the panel with spun sugar oxide ink, and then added words all over the panel using the Easter Words stencil along with kitsch flamingo oxide ink. I splattered water on my panel, dried it with a paper towel, I mixed copic opaque white ink with water and added white splatters to my panel, and then did the same with picked raspberry oxide ink.
I removed the washi tape, and when my panel was dry I attached it to an 8,5 x 3,5 inches purple panel using 1mm foam tape, and next my purple panel to a matching card base using double sided tape. And finally I attached all the images to my panel using 1mm and 2mm foam squares.
