Happy Easter racing Chicks

Welcome back everyone,

Easter is rapidly approaching and I thought I'd share another Easter card that I presented in my March Card Class. 

As soon as I saw the cute stamp from Northwood's Rubber Stamps, I knew how I wanted to stamp those cute chicks. The stamp actually has the 3 chicks together but I thought it would be better if I showed them separate. 



I stamped the image 2 times and fussy cut the eggs out from one of the stamped images.I separated the chicks, colored them and popped them up off the main stamped images. I added an off set double frame in spring colors under those chicks.These little guys are so cute!!

SUPPLIES USED ON MY PROJECT
Stamps:  Northwoods Stamps N9010 - Chicks in racing Cars
Paper/Card Stock: Pink CS, Purple CS, DP, White CS
Ink: Purple Dye Ink
Punch Used: Martha Stewart - Zig Zag  
Accessories: Spectrum Noir, dimensional foam MS Glitter

I am submitting this card in the following challenges:

Happy Easter Card

Hi Everyone, Thanks for stopping in today!!!

Spring has arrived, and I think it's about time.However we are expecting more snow here tonight/ tomorrow in the Cincinnati region with 60's a few days later. April will bring some of those warmer and sunny days, I hope.

Let me share with you cards from my March card class over the next few days.  The class contained 3 cards, 2 Easter and one semi clean and simple.

Here is the 1st Easter card.


That grass turned out kind of crummy so at the class I suggested the ladies trim the green piece in a wavy scallop cut and then use the fringe scissors. That turned out much better. The ladies said on my card, the grass had just been mowed. LOL

I will be back in a few days with the other Easter card. It is so cute, hope you like it..

SUPPLIES USED ON MY PROJECT

Deepest Sympathy

Welcome back. Gosh it's Wednesday already. This week is flying by.

Let me share my second sympathy card from last Saturday's morning class. This started out as an all black card. Black card stock, black embossing powder, totally black. Then I had to rethink this card. Too much black. So here is the card that my students wound up making last Saturday. Black card with a white panel and a black tag with the sentiment.

Black on black is hard to photograph
so
Let me show you that label which is below the image on the card

Don't be afraid of black and make sure to use your embossing buddy on your card stock to keep those pesky specks of embossing powder away from where they do not belong. .LOL

We all need sympathy cards from time to time. So, check out your stamps and see which ones will make a great black and white card. So simple yet so striking.

In class I did a third card however I sold it before I photographed it. I loved that card so I will make another one and post it later. It was a really cool card.

The next  three cards I have to share with you are from last Saturday's afternoon class.Two of the cards are Easter cards and are so cute.

SUPPLIES USED ON MY PROJECT
Stamps:  Northwoods - Calla Lillies (PP8490), Hot Off The Press - Heartfelt Greetings
Paper/Card Stock: White CS, Black CS
Ink: VersaMark
