Hi crafty friends!
I am back with my first Easter card of the year, featuring Hello Bluebird products.
At the beginnig of March, there will be a new backgorund release and all of the previous rubber backgrounds will be re-released as clear stamps, including this Handmade Plaid Background.
I wanted to create a spring mood, so I chose a colorful color palette.
I firstly stamped the background: I white heat embossed it onto a watercolor cardstock. Embossing is resistant to ink blending, I used distress oxides in Warm Lipstick, Dried Marygold and Twisted Citron. I then added some water over the stripes to partially remove the ink. Even if it is a soft touch, I think it adds a lot to the background.
I then stamped all my images on Neenah Solar White cardstock (I usually use Memento black ink) and I colored everything with copics. I picked the same color palette of the background.
I did some fussy cutting and I arranged all my images to create the scene, including the big bold Easter word, where I used the Charlie Alpha die.
For a finishing touch I added a lot of details with the white Gelly Roll pen.
I really hope you will like it and thanks for stopping by!
Hugs from Italy,
Sara
