Hi friends! Happy Sunday! Please join me in welcoming back special guest Heather Hoffman! She’s showcasing our brand NEW Favorite Things release with two darling cards using our brand NEW Blessings at Easter stamp and die set! Read on and enjoy!

Hello! I love picking one stamp from a larger set, and repeating it to create either a background, or a focal point design. Pair it with a bright and fun rainbow palette, and some crisp black images and sentiments, and you’ve got the recipe for a striking card!

For both of these cards I’m sharing today, I stamped one small floral element from the newly released Blessings at Easter stamp set a couple times in several Pawsitively Saturated inks – Dublin, Surf, Amethyst, Apple, and Zest. I love how beautifully these inks work for stamps with a more solid design – perfect solid coverage on each of these so easily!

I stamped two of the bunnies from the stamp set in crisp solid black ink, then die cut those and all of the flowers with the coordinating dies.

Next up, I needed a spot to tuck each of those flowers to ground them a bit. I die cut a couple borders using Wavy Scallop Stitches dies, using the larger scallop for the portrait layout card, and the medium scallop for the landscape version.

For the portrait card, I added a bit of ink blending with Dublin and Surf inks to add some contrast with all the white cardstock, and wrapped some of the new Iridescent Cord around it a few times.

For the landscape version, I used all 5 colored inks, and blended up from the bottom allowing the colors to mix and form a soft background across the card.

I adhered both scallop panels with foam adhesive, then tucked the florals underneath using liquid glue. I added the bunnies with foam adhesive as well – tying a little bow with the same Iridescent Cord around one of the bunnies.

Added sentiments, stamped and die cut from the same stamp set, and then added some sparkly Dazzling Gems in Prism in the center of each flower. Finished off by rounding off one corner on each card, just to add a touch of interest to the designs!
