color the images in with alcohol markers (or any medium of your choice). I color mine with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Markers. The pastel colors I used really blended well together.
I needed to ground the images and so I stamped the clouds and stars also with Memento Desert Sand using the Get Grounded Stamp Set. This is one of my favorite stamp set to date.
the ground was stamped with some green dye ink and I added a few dots using my alcohol markers.
Sometimes, less is really MORE! This card is so simple but I am so IN-LOVE with this! You can easily mass-produce this card! Here’s another look:

Easter is fast-approaching and I have the cutest 3d pop-up card for you today featuring products from Kat Scrappiness. I LOVE mixing and matching old and new products so here’s what I used for today’s card:
trim some black card stock that will fit the card and draw some yellow lines to create the “road” for the bunny. Adhere this piece in the middle of the pop-up card.
die-cut the clouds using the smallest cloud die from the Slimline Rainbow Die. Adhere to the card with liquid and foam adhesive to create dimension.
adhere the focal images onto the card with liquid glue. In case you’re wondering my favorite glue is the Bearly Art Precision Craft Glue.
finish the card design by stamping the sentiment from the Easter Quokkas Stamp Set with Versamark ink. Sprinkle some white embossing powder and heat set with heating tool. Adhere the sentiment and add some stars for added texture and interest.

The background was once again made by using the Prima Mixed Media Pastel Dreams Watercolor Confections. This time I used the pink, orange and yellow color combinations with a flat paintbrush. I also used the Heat Gun to speed up the drying process and adhered the background panel on some top-folding notecard.
Sine I want the background colors to show, I used my precision snips to cut the middle and foam-mounted this focal image onto the card for added dimension.
The sentiment was stamped onto some black card stock that was die-cut using the smallest die from the Circle Frames Die Set and adhered with liquid glue. I finished the design by adding some Ranger Ink Twinkle Stickles Glitter Glue for added texture and interest.

The background for this card was made by using a flat watercolor brush and my FAVORITE, Prima Mixed Media Pastel Dreams Watercolor Confections. Aren’t the colors to die for?! I basically just swiped the colors and used my Heat Gun to speed up the drying process. I adhered this panel on some top-folding notecard.
Next, I used the Land Border Die to die-cut two strips and foam-mounted this onto the card for added dimension. I adhered the focal image also with foam adhesive and liquid glue to secure it in the middle.
I finished my card design by stamping the sentiment from the Uplifting Wishes stamp set with some Versafine Claire Nocturne Ink.
The texture was added using some “watered-down” Aged Mahogany Distress ink.
I finished the card design by adding the sentiment that was stamped on some back card stock with Versamark Ink, and heat set with the Heat Gun. I used the Banner Trio Die to die-cut the strip and adhered to the card with liquid glue.

You will be seeing A LOT of watercolor backgrounds this week for my projects. My all-time favorite watercolor to use is the Prima Mixed Media Pastel Dreams Watercolor Confections. With that in mind, I started by adding some water to a trimmed panel of watercolor card stock measuring 3 1/4 x 5 inches. I added the colors orange and yellow to compliment the focal image.
Next, I used the new Spring Blooms Paper pad and trimmed to A2-size to adhere on the top-folding notecard. I adhered the background with liquid glue.
I stamped the images on some Neenah solar white card stock and colored the images in with alcohol markers. I used the coordinating die to die-cut and adhered on the focal panel with liquid glue. Easy, peasy! Here’s another look:
I am so in-love with this next project. I trimmed a panel of Neenah solar white card stock measuring 4 x 5 1/4 inches. I used some washi tape to temporarily adhere the stencil and started with the leaves/stalks using some blending brush and some green dye ink. I followed the same procedure with the pink tulips using some pink dye ink and let is dry for a few minutes.
Next, I used a blending brush with the Clouds Stencil and inked up the background with Tattered Rose Distress Oxide inks. I also made sure to angle the stencil so the clouds looks more realistic, instead of having straight lines!
To add some texture, I watered down some Aged Mahogany Distress Ink and used the brush to splatter some colors on the background. Once the panel was dry, I adhered it onto some top-folding notecard and stamped the sentiment from the Uplifting Wishes Stamp Set. Here’s another look:

I am so happy that you are here today and I’m also on the Newton’s Nook Designs blog sharing this card today, showcasing some of my favorite retiring stamps and dies. They are selling really fast so grab them while you can.
prepare the background panel by die-cutting some masking paper with a circle die from your stash. Adhere this on some Bristol smooth white card stock measuring 4 x 5 1/4 inches.
ink-blend this panel with Squeezed Lemonade, Salvaged Patina and Shaded Lilac Distress Oxide Inks until the colors blended really well.
use the splashes and bubble stamps from the Tranquil Tides Stamp Set and stamp it randomly on the background using some dye inks that are similar in color with the background. [Designer tip: by using similar colors, this will create a seamless design.]
adhere the focal images on the card with liquid glue.
stamp the sentiment using black ink.
finish the card design by adding some light pink pearls for added texture.

To get started, I trimmed a panel of some Neenah Solar White Card Stock measuring 5 1/4 X 4 inches. I started stamping with the pink house on the right hand side and worked my way down to the purple one at the bottom. I really didn’t have any design in mind when I started stamping the images. I just worked my way through and added more images here and there.
The great thing about using this Sunny Days Stamp Set is that the possibilities are endless! You can create so many different scenes using this set! I had so much fun layering and stamping the tiny images to fill up the whole scene. I then adhered the focal panel on some A2-size notecard.
Lastly, I stamped the sentiment from the Home Stamp Set on some black card stock with watermark Ink. I sprinkled some White Embossing Powder then used my heating tool to heat set. I trimmed the sentiment using my precision snips and adhered onto the card with liquid glue. Here’s another look:
