Happy Easter Lamb

Today I am excited to share one of Whimsy and Stars new digital images, "Little Lamby" which is available in Mabelle's store here.  I think this is such an adorable image for an Easter card and here is the one I made just for this holiday:



I chose Cosmo Cricket Baby Jane design paper because the pattern resembles crosses, and what a perfect compliment to my image!   It's not too late to create your Spring and Easter cards.  Mabelle has lots of digital images available.  We also invite you to join us on our Facebook page for more creative ideas.

Wishing everyone a very Happy Easter!

card elements:

Springtime!

Hi there friends!

It's Michele and I'm back with a beautiful Springtime Bouquet celebrating warmer weather - YIPPEE!! One of the great advantages of digital images is being able to make the image big or small or even create a scene. I decided to make a really big bouquet as I love flowers!

I printed the Springtime Bouquet on Copic XPress It paper and colored with Copics, I added some white dimensional enamel to the center of the red flowers and some polka dots with a white gel pen. Accented the entire image with B00 and B01 and die cut with MFT's stitched circle die. I added a fabulous butterfly that was actually white with sparkly stripes; I used pink and red Copics to color it up and mount with dimensionals. I added a few flags, a butterfly embossed background and that's it.



Thanks for stopping by; hope you have a great weekend ahead!

Hugs,

WHAT'S IT TAKE?

Dancing Egg and Chickie




Happy Sunday, it's Kathy here posting today! I've got a cute and springy project to share from Whimsy and Stars. I've used my Silhouette Cameo to cut a little box. I decorated it with image, Dancing Egg and Chickie, and will mail it off to my chemo buddy this week. I love making non card projects once in a while to change things up. This was fun to put together and fill with some sweet treats.

Here with a Cup of Kindness for YOU!

Hi friends - Michele here today with a Cup of Kindness just for you!

Click on any image to make 'em big!
I made 4 super fun tags which you can tie onto a gift sack or give just as they are! I printed the Cup of Kindness image 4 times onto Copic XPress It paper, then cut each with the Memory Box Distressed Tag die. I also printed just the cups repeatedly onto some My Mind's Eye designer paper. I fussy cut each cup to add to the tags.

I colored the image with Copics, added a coat of clear Wink of Stella to the center of each flower then added a dollop of glossy accents. I then sponged the entire tag with Broken China distress ink and began layering on the paper pieces of the cups. The sentiments were stamped and embossed on vellum. I just folded the sides of the vellum to create the faux double-edged tag and snipped the ends.



For two of the tags, I sandwiched in a spritzed doily. The back side of each tag is another piece of designer paper, so you can easily add a message; I then finished the tags off with 3 different colors of twine, perfect for tying on to a gift sack or giving just as they are!

Thanks for stopping by; hope you soak up the Cup of Kindness I made for you!

Hugs,

WHAT'S IT TAKE?
Stamps: Whimsy and Stars Studio Digital Image Cup of Kindness
Papers: DP by MME, vellum, VersaFine Black
Ink: Broken China Distress Ink
Accessories: Memory Box Distressed Tag, Copics, twine, glossy accents, clear Wink of Stella, doily, Glimmer Mist, Mister Huey, clear embossing powder
