Hi friends. I hope the past week has been a good one. For me, work continues to be challenging. By the time I get home, I'm so worn out. But, enough of that!
Today, I am squeezing in one more Easter card made from Pion Design's Easter Greetings papers. This one is probably my favorite that I made with this collection.
Beginning with a white cardstock base, I distressed and inked a couple of the papers and layered them onto the card. The tag was cut from one of the sheets and layered onto another piece of paper. I used punches to create the hole and reinforcer at the top of the tag and then tied a seam binding bow though it. The tag was attached to the card with foam tape. I tucked some cheesecloth underneath it and some vines cut with a Cheery Lynn die. Crochet trim was placed across the bottom. The flowers are from my stash and were given a coat of gesso. The sentiment was cut from the papers. Lastly, I created some splatters on the card with a mixture of gesso and water.
It's a beautiful spring day here today with cool temperatures and a picture-perfect sky. My husband and I took a nice long walk as it is a perfect day for doing so.
Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog. I appreciate your sweet comments. Wishing everyone a wonderful week ahead!
Gosh Patty this is so pretty with many elegant touches and I love the soft blue tones.
