Happy Easter by Noga Shefer



 

Hi crafty friends,  Noga  here and I am so happy to share with you another project for Gerda Steiner Designs today.

 My card featuring the adorable  Easter Kitten stamp set.
How cute is this kitten?

To make this card I took an A2 panel of Bristol smooth cardstock and die cut scallop frame
out of purple cardstock. 
Behind it, I ink blended a background using Distress Oxide in shaded lilac, splashed it with water and  and glued it behind this frame.

Next I colored the sweet image using copic markers: E37, E35, E30, R21, R20, R000, RV02, RV00, Y13, Y11, BV01, BV00, BV0000, N2, N0, C00, BG11, BG000, G02 and YG11.
 Than I glued the sweet image to my panel with foam tape for dimension.

Than I stamped a greeting from Easter Bunnies stamp set using black ink.

For a final touch, I added purple bubbles .

I hope you enjoy the card I created and feel inspired to create!

Thanks for stopping by,

A little Easter gift basket

 

Hello dear creative community,

 

greetings from Germany again today.

 This time I don't have a card for you, but a little tutorial for a small Easter basket.







It is modeled on the typical fruit crates. You can decorate it however you like.

 

All you need is photo card, glue, scissors, a scor pal or something similar, a ruler and I think that's it.

 

First you need a piece of photo cardboard measuring 6" x 8".  This is folded from each side at 1" and cut as shown in the picture.


 

The side pieces are folded up and glued together to create the base of a box.


 

For the next step, we need 4 pieces of photo cardboard measuring 1.5" x 3.5". These are folded lengthwise in the middle and then glued in each corner.








Now we need 4 pieces of photo cardboard measuring 6" x 1" and 4 pieces measuring 4" x 1". These will be the cross struts of the box and glued to the long and short sides. And now the box is finished and can be decorated and filled. I think everyone will be happy about this little gift at Easter. Especially when there is not only something sweet inside, but also a cute GSD stamp.

 















Have a great, creative weekend.

Best regard,
Nicole

Hoppy Easter in Pink!

Hi friends!  It's Bev Gerard, bringing a sweet pink card featuring the Hoppy Easter stamp set from Gerda Steiner Designs.  Oh these darling bunnies ... Can't you just imagine patting their so soft fur?!

Even though this is a horizontal layout, the card folds at the top, with the bottom corners rounded with a large corner rounder.  So many happy circles in this overall design!


Scallops fit so well with the circles, that I included them in the image mat, sentiment oval, and decorative strip beneath the ribbon.  I couldn't resist adding tiny dots to the scalloped edges.

          Here are the Copic markers I've used:                       

Basket:  RV11, RV95

Basket:  RV11, RV95

Bunnies:  C0, C1, C00, RV00 (cheeks/ears)

Bow:  BG000, BG01, BG05

Eggs:  YG25, RV23, Y02, YR04, V06, BG53


Happy Spring to you!  Thanks for your visit!
