I know that this Sunday is Easter but you can still make this adorable card and when you break it down into steps…it is a fun one to do a mass production line. At the end of the post you will see all of the products that I used and you can click on them to see all of the specifics of the products….the reason that I am pointing this out to you is that there might be products that you do not have but no worries…you can substitute with others….hang tight, I’ll explain!
The star of the show is the HANDS DOWN MUST HAVE SENTIMENT Stamp – Suite Sayings….even if you do not have this…use another Easter sentiment you might have….but I would purchase this set as it is filled with great sentiments that you will use all year long.
Here is the low down on the products that I used. I do hope that this is helpful for you and I encourage you to pin it to Pinterest for a reference for the future! You know that I LOVE polka dots…and this embossing folder is super fun.
I shared that you could make substitutions~ if you do not have all of the products….and you could easily use a plain overlay and then use the white gel pen to add some simple bling.
I did use the banners framelits to make the focal sentiment shine…you could easily cut that with the trimmer and a pair of scissors to make your own banner. The fun underneath the banner is a simple square with a mat!
Let’s chat about the flower and twine. I did use the botanical framlit and then the itty bitty accents punch but again, USE WHAT YOU HAVE…trust me….it will look great! I adore the bakers twine….to me it has attitude because I puled it through with the bees wax tip that I share 2 weeks ago….I love the straightness of it – just plain FUN!!!! The pearl in the center of the small flower is the classic touch to soften the flower!
You know…a fun envelope! The is 1/4″ strip of Blushing Bride and then the DSP is from the Birthday Bouquet DSP Collection…..Well…thoughts???? How do you like this layout? It is one that you could use for so many cards…it is fun yet still easy and clean.
Please let me know how you like it…I can’t believe that this Sunday is Easter……time is flying! I made this card and also the sheep card for my cards that I am sending…they are both simple and clean. I really encourage you to look at your supplies and see how you can use what you have to CASE projects.
I am the very first to realize that it takes time to build up your inventory and I just want you to know that there are other ways to achieve a similar end results. You know that I am all about the speed tools and I try to purchase practical products that will make me shine in a minimal amount of time.
Yesterday I was super productive but something strange happened….I ran out of ink in both of my white gel and black project life pen….2 staples that I use a bunch! There were 2 things that were super hard for me to do while away….mailings ~ as I did not have a printer and it was super hard not having all of my shipping supplies with me and also doing videos….so yesterday I sent out 27 mailings and filmed a video…..
Darn it is hard to get back in the swing….remember, it is Tuesday ~ time for a new batch of weekly deals…fingers crossed that there are some keepers to help you with an order before Sale~A~Bration ends…..yikes – it is right around the corner! See you tomorrow!
Susan, I absolutely ADORE this card – The layout is divine and it is definitely one to try. Thank you for all of your time and effort to share with us each day. HAPPY EASTER!
Beautiful card, Susan! Love your colors.
Had created a few cards with Easter greetings, but will definitely make a few more of these today. I too love the layout. A great CASE card. Thanks for the ideas.
Absolutely beautiful card! Thanks so much for sharing!
Beautiful card, Susan. I love this layout with these colors and all the details. I like your thinking about using what we have. I make cards for family and friends, not to sell. Lots of new items catch my eye, but where am I going to store them and can they be used for a variety of occasions are always questions I have to ask myself. If I get the “right” answer to those question, I can always find a space in my already loaded craft room! lol Have a great day.
This is just a beautiful, beautiful card! I love your color choices and the sentiment and the sweet little flowers…just perfect.
Lovely card…great colors. I had not looked closely at Suite Sayings, silly me. It is a really nice set. Hope you feel more caught up….sounds like you had a full day yesterday. Hope you have some time for yourself today, Susan. Yesterday’s snow is melting here this morning……yay!!!!!
Susan, I love your card, it is so sweet. I love the lay out. I love the colors. This is a keeper for many cards with different occasions. Thank you so much Susan, Have a great day, Ellen Hinds
Love this card. The colors are great and the design is a keeper. Must try soon. Thanks for the great idea!
I love this beautiful card! If I had not already mailed my Easter cards, I would be CASEing this one!
I certainly have been thinking about you and all you have done lately! Whew! You have been one busy lady! My thoughts are with you in the death of your father in law. Take care!
Oh how pretty. Not feeling the best so keeping this short. I love the card though – such a good one to just sigh over!
