Thank You Chicken

  Hello Friends

Today, I am making a thank you card because my stash is running a little low.  I decided to use the cute Spring Chicken for my card.  I love the little sign she has with her.  You can really put any sentiment you want on it.

Design Steps:

1.  Use an A2 white card stock base and cut a piece of blue 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 run it through a cloud embossing folder

2.  Using the Spring Chicken die and cut the pieces out of tan, rust, brown, pink, yellow, purple, red, and green.  Shade the pieces with ink and glue together with a fine tip glue.  Stamp your sign with Thank You

3.  Cut 3 white frames using the largest of the Pierced Wide Rectangle set.  Glue the frames together.  Use the Spring Grass die and cut it out using green card stock.  Glue the grass to the back of the frames

4.  Layer the back of the frame with dimension tape.  Adhere it to the blue cloud card stock

5.  Glue in the Chicken then the sign.  Finally add in the flower and the white ribbon bow. Glue the blue panel to the white card base and your card is complete

 Hello Friends,

I have one more St. Patrick's Day card to share with you today!  I am using two dies the Peeker Bunny w/Pocket and the St. Patrick's Day Phrase and More.  

The Spring Release has so many adorable dies so don't forget to check it out!

Design Steps:

1.  Use the Peeker Bunny w/Pocket and cut out the pieces in brown, tan, green, black, pink, red and Denim DP.  For the clover use the St. Patrick's Day Phrases die and green card stock.  Assemble the pieces and enhance the stitching with a white gel pen.  I used a black and white gel pen for the eyes and a black gel pen for the mouth

2.  Use an A2 white card base, cut a green dotted DP 4 1/8 x 5 3/8.  Use the Stitched Rounded Square die second from the largest cut on white and run through an embossing folder

3.  Before you attach the green dotted DP to the front of the card add a square knotted ribbon

4.  Glue down the rounded embossed white square to the center of the card just above the ribbon

5.  Use the Happy Expressions die and cut out 3 of the happy pieces.  Glue the pieces together and then glue flat to a piece of green card stock 2 1/8 x 1 1/8.  Stamp the St. Patrick's Day in black and glue it as shown above.  Mount the green rectangle onto a pieces of white 2 1/4 x 1/4

6.  Pop the bunny onto the front of the card.  Glue the sentiment to the left of the bunny as shown below. (I decided to move the bunny up just a little) I made 2 more of the ladybugs and glued one to the ear and one to the sentiment as shown below.  Add a rhinestone to the bow and some glossy accents to the nose and your card is complete

Leprechaun Gnome!

 Hello Friends,

I am taking a break from making Easter cards and switching it up to St. Patrick's Day cards.  I am repurposing one of the new Spring Release dies and making it a cute St. Patty's Day card.  I just added one of our older dies to give it a different look.

Designer Steps:

1.  I am using the Spring Gnome Cottage die and the St. Patrick's Day Cupcake die.  I cut the pieces out of tan, brown, yellow, green, and cream.  I added a little color to the hands and nose with my Copic maker E21.  I also added a little TH Vintage ink to the edge of the beard.  Glue together the pieces with a fine tip glue

2.  Use an A2 white card base cut the green 4 1/8 x 5 3/8 and the yellow dotted DP 4 x 5 1/4.  Glue the yellow and green together but do not glue to card base yet

3.  Pop the Gnome to the front of the card add the little clover to the grass and the yellow flowers to the center of the large clover

4.  Add the checked green ribbon to the bottom of the card with the knot off set to the right as shown above.  Glue your Gnome panel to the white card base

5. Stamp your sentiment in black and layer onto green card stock.  Glue the sentiment to the front as shown above.  Add yellow Stickles to the center of the flower and your card is complete

3.  Cut a piece of DP dark green 4 x 3 and a piece of DP Script 4 x 3 scallop if you would like.  Wrap a piece of purple lace around the pieces as shown above and then glue to the front of the card base  

4.  Glue down your rectangle of the script DP and then glue down the flourish

5.  Glue the cross to the script DP rectangle as show above Add your little purple flowers to the floursih and the flowers on the cross
