Thoughtful Thursday: Happy Easter

20130228-210601.jpg

Welcome to Thoughtful Thursdays! Stay tuned for a new card each week. Requests are welcomed!

Here’s an Easter card for this week. Using Hero Arts’ Polka Dot Background stamp and some Tim Holtz Distress Ink in Wild Honey, Peeled Paint, and Evergreen Bough, I decided to go with a gradient look. After stamping it initially on white card stock, it seemed a little plain. So I took out some Ink Blending Foam and started blending the coordinating ink.

I then inked up a strip of card stock in Wild Honey and stamped the sentiment in VersaMark followed by some Martha Stewart White Embossing Powder.

I wanted to pull in some of the inked colors so I cut up strips of inked Evergreen Bough card stock and tied on some green twine.

Hope you will enjoy this series! It’ll be my first me so I’m super excited! Spread the word!

I dabble in many things from crafting to cooking to CrossFit to traveling (because of work). I’ve created this space to share with you my experiences and current/past projects. I hope you find inspiration in what I share (or just make fun of it on your time, but do keep your mean comments to yourself)!
