April is here and that means a Spring theme for our cards this month. We also decided to use embossing folders and I found the perfect one while destashing !! We are in for warmer temperatures here in Virginia Beach - heading up into the 80's next week. I hope you are enjoying Spring weather wherever you are .
I used supplies that I have had for awhile on my card today . The Cuttlebug "Cherry Blossom" embossing folder and Close To My Heart "Spring Critters" stamp set were the perfect duo for a Spring birthday card .
- I embossed a piece of pink cardstock with the Cherry Blossom embossing folder. I trimmed it and adhered it to a 5x7 card base.
- The bird with banner image was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on white cardstock .
- I die-cut the stamped image with a square die .
- The stamped image was colored with my COPICS.
- A Tim Holtz sentiment was placed in the banner.
- A strip of grass washi was placed across the bottom of the stamped panel.
- A banner sticker was placed at an angle at the top of the embossed panel.
- Several pink rhinestones were adhered to the embossed area above the banner.
- I popped up the stamped panel below the banner with foam squares.
To get a look at Celeste's Spring creation, please head over to her blog - Crafting Junky . I can't wait to see what she made. This month, I got out a fun mug from one of my favorite tv shows - Schitt's Creek . Dan Levy - one of the show's creators and stars - has a new show called Big Mistakes on Netflix. I saw the mug in my cupboard and decided to use it. I'm drinking Glazed Donut coffee today .
Thanks for checking out of April cards .. We will be back next month with more to show you. Until then, Stay Creative.
