Sending Easter Wishes

Happy Friday! DT Annalisa here, sharing a bright and cheerful Easter card I created using stamps, stencils, and dies from Time For Tea Designs. I absolutely love the fresh spring feel of this card; it really makes me look forward to spending time out in the garden!

To start, I ink-blended Dusty Concord, Faded Jeans, and Cracked Pistachio Distress Oxide Inks onto white cardstock using the Mini Egg Pattern Stencil. This created a soft, colourful background with a fun Easter vibe. I then added white splatter using Picket Fence Distress Spray Stain and a watercolour brush for a bit of texture and interest.

Once the panel was dry, I adhered it to a card base and added a white die-cut stitched border to frame the scene and give it a clean, finished look.

For the sentiment, I used the Easter Wishes Large sentiment die, cutting it from both silver and black cardstock. I layered them slightly offset to create a subtle shadow effect, then adhered it to the top of the card with liquid glue.

The images come from a mix of sets, Fruitful Friends, I Really Dig You A4 Printed Cardstock, Ewe Are Moovellous, Eggstra Special Birthday, Cacti Critters and Oops A Daisy A4 Printed Cardstock. I coloured the stamped images with Copics and added white gel pen accents for extra detail and highlights. Each element was then adhered with liquid glue to complete the scene.

Easter Bunny Wishes

Happy Friday, DT Annalisa! For my card today, I used the Bunny Builder Dies and the Eggstra Special Layering Stencil (now on sale) to create this adorable purple and pink Easter card.

I began by ink blending Wilted Violet Distress Ink onto purple cardstock through the Eggstra Special Layering Stencil. I applied the ink lightly with my Beautiful Blender Brush for the first layer of the eggs. Then, I used more pressure with the pattern layering stencil to create a darker shade of purple.

Next, I used a stitched rectangle die to cut out the ink-blended background and adhered it to an A2 card base using double-sided tape. 

For the bunny, I die-cut white cardstock with the Bunny Builder Dies and ink-blended the die-cut elements using Hickory Smoke, Candied Apple, Worn Lipstick, Carved Pumpkin, Twisted Citron, and Mowed Lawn Distress Inks with my Beautiful Blender Brushes. After assembling the bunny with liquid glue, I added accents with a white gel pen for extra detail.

I also applied Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide to a piece of white cardstock, allowed it to dry, and then die-cut it with the Easter Wishes Large sentiment die. I cut the same sentiment from white cardstock and used liquid glue to adhere the two layers slightly offset. I added white gel pen accents to the pink layer for an additional touch. I adhered the sentiment to the card base using liquid glue.

Next, I stamped and colored two eggs from the Eggstra Special Birthday stamp set using Copics. I die-cut them with the coordinating dies and added white gel pen accents. I then used liquid glue to attach the eggs to the card base above the Easter Wishes sentiment.

Finally, I adhered the assembled bunny to the card base using 1mm double-sided foam tape. To complete the card, I added Summer Haze (light purple) and Sweet Summer (white) Designer Enamel Dots for embellishment.

Plaid Easter Wishes

Happy Friday, DT Annalisa here! April has arrived, and Easter is just around the corner! I'm excited to share a spring Easter card featuring the Easter Wishes Large sentiment die and the Eggstra Special Birthday stamp set.

To start, I trimmed a piece of the Pretty Pastels 6x6 Paper Pad to fit an A6 card base and secured it using double-sided tape.

Next, I die-cut white cardstock with the Sweet Scalloped Dies and A6 Simple Nesting Dies to create a thin scalloped frame. I attached this frame to the card base with liquid glue.

I then stamped several images from the Eggstra Special Birthday stamp set, colored them using Copics, and cut them out with the coordinating dies. I added accents with a white gel pen using a Gelly Roll Pen.

For additional elements, I die-cut vellum using the Stitched Circle Dies and Cloud Dies, adhering them to the card base with vellum adhesive.

For added dimension, I used double-sided 1mm foam tape to attach the stamped images.

I applied Gina K Designs Dusty Rose ink to a piece of white cardstock, allowing it to dry before die-cutting it with the Easter Wishes Large sentiment die. I then added white gel pen accents for an extra touch.

For more dimension, I die-cut the sentiment from white cardstock twice and adhered the layers together using liquid glue. I attached the sentiment to the card with more liquid glue.

To finish off the card, I added Summer Haze Designer Enamel Dots.

Watercolour Easter Wishes

Hello and happy last Friday in March! DT Annalisa here sharing a watercolour Easter card featuring the Mini Egg Pattern Stencil and Eggstra Special Birthday stamp set.

To create the background, I soaked the Evergreen Bough, Chipped Sapphire, and Wilted Violet Distress Watercolor Pencils in water to soften them. Then, I scribbled the colors onto the back of the Mini Egg Pattern Stencil and spritzed it with water. After pressing it onto Distress Watercolor Cardstock by Ranger, I let the stencil sit for a while before removing it and heat-setting it.

Next, I added splatters using the same watercolor pencils and adhered the panel to a card base with double-sided tape. I then glued a frame made from white cardstock that I had die-cut with the Five Windows Cover Die over the watercolor panel.

I die-cut black cardstock using the Easter Wishes Large sentiment die for the sentiment. I also die-cut the sentiment in white cardstock two additional times. I used liquid glue to stack the layers together, creating dimension. I attached the sentiment to the card base with liquid glue.

I stamped and colored several images from the Eggstra Special Birthday set using Copic markers. After cutting them out with their coordinating dies, I added white gel pen accents with a Gelly Roll Pen. Additionally, the bird is from the Ewe Are Moovellous set.

To finish the card, I used thin 1mm double-sided foam tape to adhere the stamped elements.

Easter egg wishes

Hey there Tea-timer friends...

DT Ashlee here. Today I am sharing another Easter card because we certainly don't have long now until the fluffy bunny will be here! 

To create this card I started with a yellow card base and added stencilling to it with the Mini egg pattern stencil and distress oxide ink...

Using the eggstra special slimline add on die I die cut two eggs from a teal blue card to add to the card base. These were adhere in place with foam tape to start adding dimension! I went on to create the sentiment "easter wishes". This was die cut from black card then cut again from white card with inking on it before adhering together slightly offset.

To complete this Easter card I added a sprinkling of pretty sequins. 

Now it's time to wait for the bunny and eat all the chocolate we desire... 

Well I know thats what I am doing hehe!

Until next post, happy crafting. Hugs Ashlee. 

Colourful Easter Wishes

Happy Friday! DT Annalisa here sharing a colourful Easter card using several Time For Tea Designs products. I love the colourful giant eggs featured on this card.

I used the Simple Square Nesting Dies to die-cut Neenah Metallic cardstock for the back panel, which I glued onto a 5 and 1/4-inch white cardstock base. I used the same simple square nesting dies to cut a 4 and 7/8-inch inner square panel that I ink-blended squeezed lemonade, tumbled glass and kitsch flamingo Distress Oxide over a cloud stencil using my Beautiful Blender Brushes. I added white splatter with a paintbrush, water and Copic opaque white, picked raspberry and peacock feathers Distress Oxide.

I used twisted citron, mowed lawn and rustic wilderness Distress Oxide for the grass.

I die-cut watercolour paper with the Eggstra Special Slimline Add-On Horizontal Die and used the large egg cutouts for this card. I used saltwater taffy, abandoned coral, worn lipstick and picked raspberry Distress Ink on the pink egg; squeezed lemonade and fossilized amber on the yellow egg; and salvaged patina and peacock feathers on the teal egg. 

I pressed the Distress Ink pads onto my glass matt, sprayed the coloured ink with water and pressed the eggs into this to colour them. I added white splatter with a paintbrush, water and Copic opaque white.

I stamped and coloured (with Copics) several images from Sweet Cart Critters and cut them out with the coordinating die set. I added white gel pen accents with a Gelly Roll Pen.

I sprayed Distress Mica Stain in Cocktail Party onto watercolour paper. Once this dried, I added white splatter and die-cut it using the Easter Wishes Large sentiment die. I cut three layers using this die from white cardstock and glued them together for dimension. I then glued this to the card.

I then added the coloured eggs and critters using a combination of double-sided foam tape and liquid glue.

Easter Wishes

 

Happy Friday, crafty friends! DT Annalisa here sharing a spring Easter scene I created using dies, stamps and stencils from the new release. I absolutely love the little bunny holding the little chick, so adorable!

I used the Square Label Dies to cut out a piece of patterned paper from the Pastel Basics Digital Printable Papers. I used another smaller die in the same set to die-cut white cardstock. I ink-blended Shaded Lilack, Kitsche Flamingo and Spun Sugar Distress Oxides over the Mini Egg Pattern Stencil using my Beautiful Rainbow Blender Brushes. I added white splatter with a paintbrush, water and Copic opaque white.

I die-cut a white fence using the Fenced In Dies and used liquid glue to adhere it to the inked panel. 

I stamped the bunny, chick and eggs from the Eggstra Special Birthday stamp set. The butterfly, flower and bee are from I Really Dig You. I stamped and Copic coloured all the images and cut them out with their coordinating dies. I added white gel pen accents with a Gelly Roll Pen. 

I used the large Easter Wishes Large sentiment die for the sentiment. I coloured it using Aqua Sky ink from Concord & 9th. I added white gel pen accents with a Gelly Roll Pen. I die-cut the sentiment two more times and adhered them all together with liquid glue.

I used liquid glue to adhere the sentiment and stamped images to the inked panel. I used double-sided foam tape to adhere this down to the card base that I covered with patterned paper.

Eggstra Special Easter Wishes

 Hi crafty friends!!  It's Amanda here sharing an EGGSTRA special Easter card!  Only a few more days until Easter!  I don't know about you, but I am definitely ready for Spring and warmer weather!

To create this cheery Easter card, I started by creating my rainbow background using the NEW Eggstra Special Layering Stencil and did some ink blending.

Next, I stamped my cuties from the new Eggstra Special Birthday stamp set.  I colored them with alcohol markers and then die cut them out with the coordinating dies.

I used the Easter Wishes Large Sentiment Die to cut out my sentiment on black cardstock.  I added highlights with a white gel pen.

The last step is to prop everything up on my background with 3D foam squares!

Thank you so much for stopping by the Time for Tea Designs blog today!  I hope you have an absolutely fantastic Easter!  Crafty Hugs, Amanda
