A watercolored Sitting Sparrow welcomes spring with a nestful of glittery eggs and delicate budding branches. These great new designs are from February’s Spring Cheer Collection of dies, 6×6 solid-core cardstock assortments, 3D embossing folders, layering stencils, clear stamp and die sets and versatile time-saving Foil Greeting Tabs. Hi, Jean here with an Easter slimline card featuring more of these great new items.
Found a piece of pastel watercolored paper in my stash and loved the soft spring pastels! Cut Sitting Sparrow from the watercolored paper. Cut the beak backing section from an orange-yellow Sunrise 6×6 sheet. Color the area for the eye with a black marker. Assemble the sparrow and attach the beak section behind the head.
Cut and assemble Bird’s Nest from light kraft cardstock.
Cut Berry Branches and Leaves from a Greenery 6×6 sheet. Save the leaves for another project.
Cut the eggs from the new Woven Basket of Eggs set. The blue eggs are from the Glitzy Glitter Pad. The pink, yellow and green eggs are from Graceful Garden Glitter Pad.
Cut the second-largest Wrapped Stitched Slim Rectangle from yellow cardstock.
Cut the new Happy Easter Curled Script from the Greenery 6×6. All of the new 6×6 color assortments are 110 lb. cardstock – sturdy and perfect for cutting delicate greetings!
Attach the diecuts to a yellow slimline card (3-⅝” x 8-½”) – use foam tape for Sitting Sparrow. Add green Christmas Fairy Dewdrops. Cut a slimline-sized piece of cardstock to protect the card front for mailing.
The links for Happy Easter Curled Script and Wrapped Stitched Slim Rectangles will be added as soon as they’re fixed.
Thanks for visiting…hope these colorful spring ideas will brighten your winter days!
