Reach for the stars

Christy used Penelope and kitty Percy fly to create this fun, encouraging card. Who wouldn’t want to reach for lavender glitter stars!

The image was stamped and colored with Prisma colored pencils and Gamsol. Penelope’s glasses were glazed over with clear glossy accent, to give them a realistic touch. The blades on the flying machine are connected with a silver brad. The plain lavender cardstock was the perfect background for cutting stars using the Cricut and paper punches and then layered on purple glitter cardstock.

Anything for the kids

Christy created another fun card using Mr. MacIntire in his bunny suit – he even has a fluffy tail this time!

She says he’s a good sport. After getting on his bunny costume he loaded up his basket with Easter treasures and set out to deliver the treasures to the children in his community. Every year, the kids look for him, and this year is no different. :)

Mr. MacIntire was colored with Prismas and Gamsol. His white fluffy tail was embellished with Snow-Tex from DecoArt. The image was layered with colored cardstock and handmade black dots give the main image a nice border. The background paper was handstamped with boys and girls who will be receiving all the special treats.

Flower wreath

Design Team Member Christy created this wonderful card – makes me want to plant some flowers – especially if they bloomed as pretty as these!

This Easter card begins on purple glitter paper and is blooming with a Happy Easter message. The stamped image is (1089-J) Mr. MacIntire’s bunny suit. The image was stamped on a white cardstock in the shape of a circle and colored with Prisma colored pencils and Gamsol. A few stamped dots around his feet grounded the image nicely. The flowers used in the wreath were cut with the Cricut, paper punches, and Primas. The flowers were stacked and stuck together with brads, buttons, or other little blooms. Curling up the petals of the paper flowers gave the blooms an interesting 3D appearance.

Once the flowers were assembled, she used the white cardstock circle as her guide to lay the flowers appropriately around Mr. MacIntire. The stamped Easter greeting was situated in the wreath using foam squares, to give it the look of just floating in the petals.
