Hey crafty friends! I hope you're having a lovely week so far! I've been busy making Easter cards this week. Really, I think I have all this time to get my cards done and then bam! it's the last minute and I'm realizing I want to give out a whole bunch more cards... Last night I stayed up until midnight to get 8 cards done for teachers and friends! I'm not complaining though, I love making cards and they turned out cute. I'll be sharing those really soon with you. But today I have a card I made for my mother-in-law with the new Easter Blessings digital stamp set in the Pretty Cute Stamps store.
I coloured in the lovely stained glass window and cross with my Prismacolor and Hobby Colour Markers, which are alcohol based, and then added some Glossy Accents to the cross to add some dimension. I think it would also look neat if you added the Glossy Accents to the windows instead!
I fussy cut around the Rejoice sentiment included in the set and added it to my layers of CTMH paper. I usually print out a whole sheet of all the images and sentiments at a time so I can colour and cut them out as needed.
Inside and on the envelope I added two more sentiments from the set, and stamped the Happy Easter from a CTMH stamp set in my stash.
I used some lovely coordinating colours of sequins from SpiegelMom Scraps and attached them using Glossy Accents. I especially love these little tiny flowers!!
Here's a look at the digital stamp set I used:
