Happy Easter with a Floating Die-cuts Technique card

Our family gathers together for Easter most of the time; when we can that is. 

We do jelly bean hunts with our granddaughter inside and an Easter Egg hunt outside weather permitting.  What are your traditions for Easter?   

I shared this card on last week's Facebook Live when I did Paper Strips Techniques. You can see it here.

On this card I adhered strips or punched circles to our Acetate and then used the Oval Dies to cut them out.  I had to run it through multiple times as our acetate is very thick. But it die work!  

Other products used here:

• Word Wishes dies
• Layering Oval dies (So very sad these are retiring!) 
• Friendly Silhouettes dies (Greenery; retiring & on sale $19.20)
• Tasteful Textile 3D folder
• Little Details embossing folders (retiring & on sale $3.20)

• Fragrant Forest & Countryside Corners in a fun fold layout with video

  December 15, 2023

  ---

  I've been sharing my Fragrant Forest projects from last week's Live; this is the third one. I have a video below to watch plus free project sheets for each card too.  See this stamp set here.

  Save

  I chose a simple color combo of White & Pretty Peacock. The designer paper on the upper flap is the Hello, Irresistible from our Online Exclusives line. 

  The die-cuts are the Countryside Corners from the Annual catalog; seen here. Can you see the raised lines on the inside white? I used my Simply Scored 1/4" from each edge. 

  Here's the free project sheet with measurements, photo and more: Download Fragrant Forest Funfold card

  I couldn't decide if I like the clean look of the card on the lower right or the added forest on the lower left card. Which do you prefer? 

  Save

  Here's the inside view of the upper left card.  I used the Lasting Joy stamp set for my greeting and sentiments. I find I'm reaching for this one often. See it here. 

  Save

  You might wonder just how I achieved inking only the bottom half of this stamp on the inside of the left card above. Watch the video here. 

  I cut my stamp apart!

  On last week's Live video I featured the Fragrant Forest stamp set. Trees are one of my 'go to' choices for card making; I like most botanical images though. I find them comforting and versatile and this large background stamp is truly beautiful. 

  Save

  I kept my colors to White & Pretty Peacock. If you ever struggle with color combos try just one with White or Vanilla; they're usually quite beautiful. 

  Dies used here include the Countryside Corner dies (2023-24 annual catalog) & Forever Forest dies (2023 Holiday catalog) for the die-cut mountains on the bottom of the card . The greeting die-cut is from the Stylish Shapes dies; a definite must have! See the Fragrant Forest stamp set here. 

  Here's the inside view:
