Happy Easter Sunday!

Happy Easter Everyone!  These are some Easter treats that I made a few weeks ago.  I thought the Bunny peeking thru the window would be so cute!  I kept the design pretty simple because I had to put them in the mail.  You could add eggs or flowers to the grassy border.  

Amuse Studio Grapefruit card stock was cut 10½" x 2" with scores at 5" and 5 ½".  You may have to adjust according to the size of your treats.  

Vintage Blossom Straws!

Amuse Studio's beautiful Vintage Blossom Paper Straws are so pretty.  Look at the darling gift idea by talented Kristine Vicente, fellow Amuse Studio Consultant.  I love how she stamped just a portion of the image from Wonderful Windows for a perfect little scene on the tag.

Hello Wonderful Windows

I have been enjoying the new Wonderful Windows stamp set from Amuse Studio's March 2015 Collection.  Since it seems to have an artsy feel I decided the Brush Strokes stamp set would be a great background.

I love the Bandana technique on this cute Hello card!

Stamps:  Modern Zinnia, Say It With Style

Cardstock:  Sky 4Bar card base, Cherry, Seattle Petite Pinstripe, Sugar

Ink: Onyx Versafine

Score Sky cardstock at 5" to make a 4Bar card base scored at top (finished card measures 3 1/2" x 5")  Stamp Zinnia images with Onyx Versafine on the Cherry cardstock layer.  Using the gel pen, randomly add stitching lines.  Stamp the sentiment with Onyx Versafine ink on the sugar layer.  Add the Onyx pearl stickers beside the sentiment.  Adhere the Seattle Pinstripe layer to the Cherry layer, then adhere to card base.  Adhere the sugar layer.  Wrap the twine around the card front and tie in a bow. 

TIPS:  This technique takes a little time & patience but it is so worth it!  Make sure you shake the gel pen well before using it.
