Spellbinder large die of the month March 2021 - Spring together with lever pull

 Hello! Thanks for stopping by my blog.

Today I'm sharing my take on the Spellbinder large die of the month March. 

This release has no less than 24 cutting dies and it includes a lever pull to add motion to your cards.

How awesome is that!?

You can make 3 different animals with the set, a bunny, a sheep or a chicklet.

This die set is perfect for you spring or Easter cards, the possibilities are endless.

 I made an Easter card with the cute chicklet.

When you pull the lever the little chick moves from side to side.

The paper I used is digital. I bought it at The DigiRainbow on Etsy.

The sentiment I made in Word and printed it on cardstock.

For more inspiration on how to use this months die set please visit the Spellbinders Blog.

Easter card with foamiran flowers

Hi, today I'm sharing an Easter card full with spring foamiran flowers.

The papers I used on this card are from the paperpad "springtime" from mintay papers.
The Easter egg chipboard is from MiszMasz papierowy  and I bought it at the lemoncraft shop.

I made all the flowers on this card using foamiran sheets and stamens from the 14 craft bar shop.

I colored white foamiran with blue and yellow chalks to get the colors I wanted.

There are also lace and fabric elements on this card, these are from Allmacraft.com. A webshop from the Ukraine I recently discovered. They sell THE most beautiful laces, guipure, crochets and other goodies, you really must take a look.

Shabby Chic Easter

I've recently discovered Foamiran flowers and really adored them so much I just had to make them myself. I ordered the foamiran sheets overseas (there are none here in the Netherlands, so frustrating)  and they came in yesterday. So today I've made my first foamiran flowers. The past weeks I've been watching tutorials on you tube and learned how to make them.

I also made an Easter card with other flowers I created with the thin foam.

The wooden elements (bunny and tiny flowers) are from wycinanka.
The paper is from Studio Light (celebrate spring).
I used structure paste (Nellies)  and a stencil to create some interest to the centre panel.

For the finishing touches I used skeleton leaves, ribbon and little pearly flowers.

I'm entering this card in the following challenges:

Hippity Hoppity

Hi,

I've made a one layer card with an Easter theme. One layer cards are not easy to make, I think.
It's difficult to create the right and CAS look.

I did the coloring in Photoshop and printed the image directly on the cardstock.
The sentiment I made in Word using a fun font. Added some twine.
