Stamping Inkspirations March Blog Hop Spring & Easter

Welcome to the Stamping Inkspirations March Blog Hop as we showcase projects for Spring and Easter. We hope that you will visit our blogs and be inspired by the wonderful ideas and projects that we have to share to get you ready for the new season and this special holiday.

It's snowing here in Colorado, so I thought I would share a fun Easter card featuring the Springtime Joy stamp set (item #154403) from the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog. What can I say, I am in love with this stamp set and the cute images that are perfect for Spring and Easter themed cards. I paired it with one of the designs from the Flowers For Every Season 6"x6" Designer Series Paper (item #152486) from the 2020-2021 Annual Catalog and I am finding myself drawn to this designer series paper more and more for Spring card designs. The result is a pretty clean and simple card design that is sure to brighten someone's day.

This card was so much fun to create and I love the touch of whimsy the cute chick and basket add to this design. I stamped the images with Early Espresso Classic ink and colored them with Stampin' Blends Markers before fussy cutting them with Paper Snips. I layered the Stitched Circle die cut onto the center of the Bumblebee Swirled Circle die cut and attached it to the card front with Stampin' Dimensionals. I attached the basket and chick to the Basic White circle with Stampin' Dimensionals and added three of the die cut Easter eggs to complete the design. For the sentiment, I heat embossed the image onto Basic White cardstock with Gold embossing powder and die cut it with one the dies from the Painted Labels Dies. I attached it to the bottom right side of the card front to complete the design. I decided not to add any embellishments or ribbon, preferring to keep it clean and simple.
