Team Stamp It Blog Hop Easter Watercolor

My Easter Card

What do you do when you don’t have any Easter stamps? You peruse the Stampin’ Up! catalog and search for inspiration. I found my inspiration on page 109 of the Annual Catalog. It’s a watercolor, eclipse card. I thought this style worked well for the card I wanted to share. It features the the Hand-Lettered Prose dies.

Here’s a quick recap of how it goes together:

  • Cut Shimmery White card stock – 5/14″ x 4″.
  • Use Aquapainters to give a wash with Pear Pizzazz, Coastal Cabana, and Highland Heather.
  • “Splatter” ink onto the card front.
  • Die cut the word with the Hand-Lettered Prose Dies.
  • Layer the Shimmery White onto a Highland Heather base.
  • “Pop up” the letters using pieces of Mini Stampin’ Dimensionals.
  • Add the “Blessings” sentiment from the Merry Christmas to All stamp set on a watercolor piece with Highland Heather ink.
  • Die cut with the label from the Merry Christmas Dies.
  • Attach the sentiment with Glue Dots to the front of the card.
  • Color five Pearl Basic Jewels with Dark Highland Heather Stampin’ Blends. Attach to front of card.

Please let me know if you have questions about this card or how it was created.
