Happy Easter Three Ways from Stampin' Up!

Happy Easter everyone... 

This Easter is obviously going to be different for all of us... but I hope that you still get to do something  lovely... make some special memories... and eat some nice things!! I am really looking forward to the Hot Cross buns that a kind neighbour has just left on our doorstep! Yum!

I have three Easter cards to share today, and each one features a unique tip that you can add to your paper-crafting repertoire.
If you’d like a card with simple lines and a subtle touch of colour, try the Direct Marker technique featured on the Easter Promise Happy Easter card. Simply use Stampin’ Write Markers to colour directly on the rubber. This gives you perfect control over the depth of colour in your stamped image; it also lets you easily incorporate more than one colour for a clean, sophisticated look.
Go bold with Melon Mambo and Pool Party, as we did with our Welcome Easter Sweet Friend lamb card. Pro tip: Birthday Bonanza Designer Series Paper isn’t just for birthdays! We love how it makes the Melon Mambo Cardstock pop.
The adorable You Brighten My Day chick card features the Distinktive Full of Happiness Stamp Set. The varying rubber densities give your image depth and complexity, making it super fun & easy to stamp with and get extra texture....

Welcome Easter Bites

So I had some of these Aldi chocolate bunnies... chicks... and lambs... left after filling some of these...
So a VERY simple little plan came to mind... so a few of these were made and posted out to family friends... and the best bit! They won't be expecting a thing!!

Wish I had had more chocolates... as if so... there would have been a LOT more of these made! But an hour round trip to the nearest Aldi wasn't something I could've asked a neighbour to do!

Happy Easter to you and yours... and may the Easter Bunny be kind!

Welcome Easter Treats Trio & Tutorial

And so rounding off the trio of goody containing Welcome Easter treat holders ...

With Larry the Lamb... stamped in Memento Black on Whisper White... coloured in with Light Gray Granite and Dark Balmy Blue Stampin Blends... and fussy cut...
Scroll back 2 days for specific details on Bertie Bunny and Charlie Chick...

All just 2 tags stuck either side of a Mini Curvy Keepsakes box... as you can see on the shot below... Scripty embossed Balmy Blue Tags 5cm(2") wide x 9.9cm(4") high... with a Granny Apple Green hill hand cut from a 5cm (2") square piece of Subtle embossed card

Though note that I die cut a Balmy Blue Mini Curvy Keepsake box here...
But all the makes in classes have been Granny Apple Green Mini Curvy Keepsakes boxes... as that represented a hill better....
Also note that I used Bakers Twine to hold the box closed... but all my ladies chose to use the "random" peg I happened to have... much much quicker that way!

And finally finished off with a "single twist/knot" of ribbon... as tying a proper knot would prevent you getting in without destruction! So only about 3" worth per treat holder...

Welcome Easter Mini Curvy Keepsake Treat Holder

Just a quick Welcome Easter share today as I have been away for the weekend....  Yes yet again! How lucky am I...  And this weekend was a wonderful gastronomic treat with an overnight stay at The Yorke Arms in Ramsgill... I could definitely seriously get into these destination restaurants!
So here is Bertie the Easter Bunny... and I will be back very soon with more...

In the meantime I will be working on the Bench Fold card tutorials this week... Sadly everything else I had on this week has been cancelled...  so maybe I will get them done sooner than planned... every cloud...
