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)

• Springtime Scenes diagonal fold – 2 ways!

  May 4, 2026

  I’m excited to share this neat card with you today. We made it at my April Card Clubs.

  Isn’t it beautiful? It features the Springtime Scenes bundle seen here and the Delicate Dreams DSP seen here. This DSP is so pretty they cannot keep it in stock! Be sure to add your email to the product so you get notified when it comes back in stock.

  This card might look like it’s difficult but it’s as simple as trimming off one half of the card front at a diagonal and flipping it over. Yup; that’s it! Watch my video below to see how it’s done.

  My colors include Secret Sea, Hydrangea Hue (new in color), White and Crumb Cake. The largest circle is from the Spotlight on Nature dies seen here. The small White circle is from Stylish Shapes dies.

  We tried this layout in both landscape & vertical position. Which do you prefer?
