Hello there, I just pop up to share a Mini Slimline Spring Card, featuring the new collection from Crackerbox Stamps.  Spring has sprung and we are all ready to celebrate it.

I used white smooth cardstock to make my entire card. I love the number of possibilities that color white brings in a project. After made the card base, I die cut the second layer of the card using the large size of the Wonky Stitched Rectangle Mini Slimline Dies. Then, I left these pieces aside for a while.

Then, in a separate piece of white smooth cardstock, I stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink the Bunny Butt,  the Bunny ears and the 4 Leaf Clover.  These stamps are part of the most recently Crackerbox’s release. To continue with the process, I colored all the stamped images with Illustrator Markers from Spectrum Noir.  The colors of  Illustrator Markers that I used were TN1, TN2, TN3, AG5, AG3, FS3.

CARD DETAILS:

In addition, I fussy cut all my colored images with scissors. I know that not all likes to cut the images with scissors, you can also make it with a electronic die cut machine, but for me it is like a therapy and make part of my creative process.

After cut the images, I placed it over the layer that I die cut with the Wonky Stitched Rectangle Mini Slimline dies to determinate the exactly position of the sentiment.  With the help of my MISTI, I stamped the sentiment Friends 4 Leaf Clover, using VersaFine Onix Ink.

Maybe you are asking why I changed the ink, it is because I really like dark black of the VersaFine . However, always that I will coloring with Alcohol Markers, I used Memento Tuxedo Black Ink or  Finesse Alcohol Proof Ink from Spectrum Noir.

To finalize the card, I just pasted the second layer over the card base using 3D foam strips and then I pasted the Bunny Butt,  the Bunny ears and the 4 Leaf Clover with 3D foam squares. Voila, my card is ready!

Thank you so much for stopping by!
