Hello crafty friends, happy Wednesday!
EASTER! Easter is almost amongst us!! So, today I made Easter cards with Simon Says Stamps Hop To It products again.

My first card here:
As I mentioned before, I love SSS Cross die so much!

To create the card:
1)For the Cross: I sponged on the white cardstock with Distress ink Vintage Photo using blending tool and stamped Hero Arts Woodgrain Background on the inked panel using Distress ink Walnut Stain and die cut the Cross from the stamped paper. 2)I stamped Artful Flowers on the watercolour panel using VersaMark Embossing ink and white heat embossed at the top and bottom side of the panel. 3)I coloured the flowers with Distress markers using detailed waterbrush –Salty Ocean, Tumbled Glass, Peacock Feathers, Broken China, and Mustard Seed. 4)I die cut the bottom side of the coloured panel using Pretty Pink Posh Stitched Borders 2 Dies and layered with blue & wood stamped paper together. 5)I mounted the Cross in the middle of the panel using dimensional foam tape and added some clear sequins for finishing touches.

I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die.
(John 11: 25-26)

My second card here:
To create the card:
I used Grid Stencil for my own background -I am so in love with this stencil!! 1)I layered grid stencil over the watercolour panel and blended with Distress inks in rainbow order using blending tool –Festive Berries, Dried Marigold, Squeezed Lemonade, Mowed Lawn, Peacock Feathers, Faded Jeans, and Seedless Preserves– and then added some water droplets on the background. 2)Once dry, I cut 2 part from the coloured background and put sentiment panel between them -I used Hand Lettered Encouragement stamp set for the sentiment. There are lots of great encouraging sentiments in this set. 3)To finish it off, I die cut the small sized cross from the white cardstock and affixed it right up on the sentiment panel using dimensional foam tape and added some clear sequins.

That’s it for today. Thank you so much for stopping by. Have a wonderful day!!

Keep smiling and be blessed! God bless you all!
