FUNNY EASTER CARDS | SIZZIX LIFESTYLE

Do you like making funny cards! Basically, I'm a very fun loving person. I usually open up my views and thoughts to the people those who are very close to me. I often don't speak to people much, I wouldn't say that I am an introvert but.. I don't know, may be! :P

I made these funny Easter Cards for Sizzix Lifestyle using their Spring Animals Bigz Die. I also used Distress Inks for my projects.

Dies - Spring Animals
Die-cutting Machine - Big Shot Plus

Distress Inks - Picked Raspberry, Spiced Marmalade, Mustard Seed and Peacock Feathers

Other Ink - Archival Jet Black Ink

Stamp - Happy Little Stampers, Birthday Friends

Oh! this chicken is laying an egg and happily sighing 'whoops' with those smiley eyes! :)

HOW I MADE THIS CARD

• Started the card by ink smooshing the panel which is smaller than the main card base with Picked Raspberry Distress Ink
• I die-cut the hen from white card stock and ink smooshed it's body with Mustard Seed and the wing with Spiced Marmalade
• I hand drew the egg and smooshed it with Peacock Feathers Distress Ink
• I adhered the ink smooshed panel over the main card base and also adhered the hen over it.
• I placed the egg at an angle to create an illusion that the hen is laying! LOL
• Finally stamped the sentiment from Happy Little Stampers - Birthday Friends with Archival Jet Black ink, drew a speech bubble around the sentiment, fussy cut it and adhered at the top of the card.

Dies - Spring Animals

Die-cutting Machine - Big Shot Plus Machine

Distress Inks - Black Soot, Picked Raspberry and Chipped Sapphire

Ink - Archival Jet Black Ink

Sentiment stamp - Skipping Stones, Sassy Cats

Does his butt look big here?? I think so! hahaha

HOW I MADE THIS CARD

• The procedure was similar to the above card. 
• I used Chipped Sapphire, Black Soot and Picked Raspberry Distress Ink to ink smoosh the background and the die-cuts repectively
• I adhered and foam mounted all the panels over the card base
• And adhered the sentiment strip over the die-cut

And that's all for today. See you tomorrow with more cards. Thanks for visiting! :)

THREE CUTE EASTER SPRING CARDS | SIZZIX LIFESTYLE

Hello everyone! How are you doing? Today's projects are going to be the cutest and they are very simple to make. My cards feature Spring Time Thinlit Die from Sizzix Lifestyle. These dies are great for making both Spring and Easter Cards/projects. I did some simple copic coloring to my die-cuts, I have a very few collection of Copics and I love working every bit of bit. :)

Products from Sizzix Lifestyle

• Sizzix Thinlits Die Set 18PK - Spring Time
• Sizzix Big Shot Plus Machine Only (White & Gray)

I die-cut the dies from white card stock, colored them with copic markers. 'The bunny (standing) is balancing and bringing a pot of Easter eggs to his friend who is waiting near the floral bushes!' ;) 

All the die-cuts were colored with copics and adhered over the ink (peacock feathers distress ink) blended panel. I did some Reverse Die-cutting. 

Look how I colored the die-cuts! Yep! I did dimensional coloring with copics. I hope you like them. Thanks for visiting :)

Cute Easter Bunnies | Video

I usually don't make cards for Easter but my little nieces are coming to our town and I want to give these cards to them. I know they both will get excited! :) I used Playful Bunnies from Mudra and the Studio G stamps for my project (lovely RAK from my friend). 

CARD DETAILS

I started by ink blending the background with Dusty Concord Distress Ink and with the help of ink blending tool and Ranger mini round foam. I went heavy handed at the top and light handed at the bottom. This creates a beautiful Ombre effect. I am so in love with this purple color and I feel like I wanted to use this color on all of my projects.

I added splatters of water with my mini mister and blotted the excess water with a tissue paper. This creates a beautiful texture to the background. Next I stamped all the images with Catherine Pooler's Mignight Ink. This ink is archival, permanent, fast drying, water proofed, super balck and excellent for any type of technique.

To fasten up the coloring process, I distress colored the flowers with Picked Raspberry, Mustard Seed and Peeled Paint with the help of sponge daubers. I left the bunnies uncolored as it pops against the bright purple background. I fussy cut all the images with Kaisercraft Precision Scissors, I left a little white border around the bunnies and cut the flowers along the edge of the line. 

Finally I adhered all the images with Tombow Glue and adhered sequins from Mudra - Sugar Plum Mix and Yellow - and stamped the sentiment with the same Midnight Ink. I added shimmer to the flowers and bunnies with Wink of stella clear pen.

I have filmed the video for you and I hope you'll enjoy watching it :)

And that's all for today. Thanks for visiting! :)
