The base of my card is a folded half-sheet of Basic White card stock. It opens on the bottom and the fold is on the top. I cut a 3-3/4" x 5" piece of Cajun Craze card stock. I cut the framed piece from the center of this piece of card stock. I used the second and third largest dies from the "Nested Essentials" set. I taped the dies so they wouldn't shift. I wanted the frame to be the same on all sides.
I cut a 4-1/2" c 3-1/4" piece of Basic White for the next layer. And the DSP from the "Storybook Moments" 12" x 12" package was cut at 3" x 4-1/4". I taped the DSP to the Basic White layer and then that was taped to the Cajun Craze layer and then it was all taped to the front of the card.
When I cut the frame piece I also cut one large Basic White piece and I trimmed off the stitch marks. I needed a white layer behind the frame. I took my Blending Brush and some Soft Sea Foam ink and scrubbed a it on to tone down the white a little and to give it some color. I glued the frame piece to that Basic White piece. I taped it in place on the front of the card eying it up so it looked equal on the three sides of the DSP.
I also scrubbed on some Soft Sea Foam ink on the scrap piece of Basic White card stock and then I stamped the words from the "Storybook Friends" bundle using Cajun Craze ink. I cut them out using the smallest die from the "Nested Essentials" set. Dimensionals were added to the back and I set it aside.
The duck is from the Storybook Moments" package. There's a page that has pop outs so I popped out this cute duck and thought it would look nice for an Easter card. Dimensionals were added to the back of the duck and it was set in place in the center of the framed piece.
The words were added next to the lower left side and the card was done.
So quick, so simple and so cute!
Thank you SO very much for taking your time to stop in and see today's Easter card,
Wanda
