Easter Cards



Well it's a little late to offer much inspiration..but hey I can't be the only one leaving my Easter creations to the last minute...can I? LOL. This card is made from some glitter paper I received for Christmas....thank you Santa ;-) I thought the colours worked perfectly for Easter! The adorable chick on the top of the card is a QuicKutz(QK) die (if you've never heard of QuicKutz just ask me....but be warned I love QK and will talk until your ears fall off). I used an Easter Wishes sentiment from the All Holidays set in Perfect Plum. I punched the sentiment out with the tag punch and hung it from the ribbon. This next card uses the same glitter paper as the chick card but I scalloped the edge with the corner rounder punch. The corner rounder is a must have tool for 3 reasons: first it rounds corners which is a nice accent for scrapbooking and card making, secondly if you remove the guide you can use it to scallop corners and third it's inexpensive. Double duty tool at an affordable price...need I say more? LOL. I stamped the elephant in Tempting Turquoise, the bird in So Saffron and the Flower in Pink Passion. The animals are from the Wild About You stamp set and believe me I am Wild about this set! I cut the animals out and pop dotted them up, although you probably can't see it very well on this card. I'm actually going to use this card as an Easter card but it would also make a very cute baby card. Double duty!
