I spent the day yesterday at a card making event sponsored by, Suzanne Everett. My friend, Sharon, and I spent the day making 14 cards. You have to hustle a bit to get them done, but it sure was fun! We did not make any Easter cards, but that is fine as I had finished my Easter cards this week. I thought I would share the Easter cards I made. I had quite a few to make and wanted to make them "quick and easy". Take a look.
I had all these tulips in my already stamped box. I just pulled them out and added some layers, ribbon, and Easter Sentiments. Here is a close up of one. I did a bit of distressing on this one with Vintage Photo Distress ink.
This batch was made with papers and some pre-cut shapes from a Crate Paper set. I had a pack of Easter Rub-ons from My Sentiments Exactly. I added the rub-ons to the pre-cut shapes...and instant cards! The Easter blessing is made with a piece of DP from Stampin' up---the colors worked well with the Crate Paper pre-cuts.
I stamped some tulips and added some papers from Stampin' up.
This was a rub-on. The papers are all from Stampin' Up.
So, I was able to get these cards done in time. The cards that have to be mailed went out on Friday. The rest will be hand delivered.
And, now how about a few Challenges for my Quick and Easy Easter Cards!!
