Happy Easter, Happy Spring with Tulip Builder Punch

I love the way this Happy Easter Card came out.  I used the Flowering Fields Designer Series Paper as the background layer.  I punched out the tulip using the Tulip Builder Punch with Real Red Cardstock and Old Olive Cardstock.  I used Daubers to sponge ink around the punched out pieces to give the pieces some depth.

Card Details:

• White Cardstock card base:  4 1/4" x 11", scored at 5 1/2"
• Old Olive Cardstock:  5 1/4" x 4"
• Flowering Fields DSP:  5" x 3 3/4"
• For the 3D tulip top, I punched out a tulip in Real Red Cardstock and punched a leaf in Real Red Cardstock also.  Then I popped up the Real Red leaf for a 3D look.

 

Color & Contour in Blushing Bride

"And in better days ahead"..  we all wish for better days ahead.  I can't get enough of the Color & Contour Bundle which includes the Color & Contour Stamp Set and Scalloped Contours Dies.  I stamped the flower in Black Memento Ink and colored in the flowers with Blushing Bride Ink and Flirty Flamingo Blends and Old Olive Blends.

Happy Easter Paint Chip Card

Sharing a fun Happy Easter card today made with the Easter Friends Stamp Set.  If you are wondering what the paper strip on the left is, it's a paint chip from my local hardware store.  The colors remind me of Easter so I had to use it.  You can see the original paint chip below before I trimmed it.
