Ornate Easter Greeting and Ellen Hutson Stamp Sale

Good Saturday morning.  I have a clean and simple Easter card to share with you today made using the Impression Obsession Happy Easter sentiment paired with the Ornate Egg 1, Easter Egg Set, Border Duo 1, Leaves and Stems and Tiny Flowers.

I cut the decorative border piece and attached it to the card base using ATG adhesive along the top and mounting tape along the bottom. I wanted the border to be popped up a little to show off the eyelet design. I applied Crafter’s Pick Ultimate Glue to the back border edge of the decorative egg and attached it to the solid egg base.  I used the Crafter’s Pick as it dries perfectly clear. There are three sizes of eggs in the Easter Egg Set and the largest is a perfect fit for the ornate eggs. Although I only used one of the ornate eggs I linked both below for you to see.

I tied the multi loop bow and attached it to the egg with glue dots. I tucked the stems and flowers in around the bow and attached them with glossy accents. I attached the egg to the card base with mounting tape.  I put a closer picture of the egg below.  It is so pretty with the foliage and flowers. I love the decorative design of the egg layer done in white against the purple background.

I rolled up a strip of double stick tape, applied it to the back of the Happy Easter pieces and attached them to the card base.

My mother-in-law is 90 years old and  lives in a nursing home in New Jersey.  She loves getting my cards and we send her little care packages every week with one or two. She will love getting this pretty card for Easter.

  3. That is really a beautiful card! I just got my dies in, I am loving the border dies! I just put one layer of the foam adhesive, but was thinking two layers would pop up that border more? Thank you so much for your inspiration, I love your cards! I’ve already made several of them. Still waiting for some dies I ordered that were kinda hard to find. Like the Grand Forest Archway etc., I did find them though!
    Thanks again for sharing your awesome art with us!
