Timeless Tulips fund fold easter card

Welcome to my Blog!  Easter is coming and I wanted to do a Easter Card combining several of our stamps sets in the annual and mini catalogs.  I also added a fun fold element to this card.  This card takes a little effort but it is well worth it. Hope you enjoy!





You will need the following card stock and Designer Series paper cut in the following manner:

Card Base: Thick Whisper White 5 ½ x 9 ¼ scored at 3 ½ and 7 ¾
Cardstock: Whisper White 3 x 6 scored at 3, 3 ¾ x 5, 1 ½ x 2 ½, (3) 2 ½ x 2 ½,                                                                           Blushing Bride 1 ¾ x 2 ¾, 2 ¾ x 2 ¾, Crushed Curry 2 ¾ x 2 ¾,                                                                                                 Designer Series Paper: Pleased as Punch (153558) 2 ¾ x 2 ¾                                                                                       (Granny Apple Green), 1 ¼ x 5 ¼, 3 ¼ x 5 ¼ (checkered),                                                                                                           4 x 5 ¼ (raindrops), 1 ¼ x 5 ¼, 3 ¼ x 5 ¼ (stripes)
I also used the following Stamp N Write markers to color in the animal images:
Rabbit: Gray Granite, Basic Gray, Petal Pink
Lamb: Gray Granite, Smokey Slate, Blushing Bride, Coastal Cabana, Petal Pink
Chicken: So Saffron, Crumb Cake, Pumpkin Pie
Project Recipe:
On the 3 ¾ x 5 Whisper White sheet stamp the sentiment in the middle using the                                                          Timeless Tulips Stamp set and Black Memento Ink.
On a scrap of Whisper White paper stamp one bunny, one lamb and one chick                                                                          in Black Memento ink.  Color in with Stamp N Write markers. Then fussy cut out.
Now you will work on the 3 x 6 Whisper White mini Card. *****Note: this will open                                                                      from left to right which is opposite of a normal card. On one of the 2 ½ x 2 ½ Whisper                                                              White piece using the Timeless Tulip stamp set stamp two stems in Granny Apple Green                                                          ink leaning out from each other. Then with Crushed Curry ink stamp one medium tulip on                                                        the stem on the left and a large Tulip on the stem on the right. Then stamp another large                                                          tulip on a scrap piece of Whisper White then punch out with the Tulip Builder Punch and                                                          adhere to the sheet with stampin dimensionals directly over the large stamped tulip on the                                                      sheet. Then add to the Granny Apple Green Designer Series Paper mat. Last using the                                                            Well Said Stamp set stamp the word “Love” in the lower right corner. Then add to the front                                                      of the Mini Card.
Using the Mango Melody Stampin Blend color the ribbon. Once it is dry tie into a bow                                                              and add to the bottom of the tulip stems on the last Whisper White sheet you just worked on.
On the next 2 ½ x 2 ½ Whisper White piece again stamp several tulips in Blushing Bride ink                                                    then using the Leave a Little Sparkle stamp set, stamp the word “Believe” in the upper right                                                    corner in Black Memento ink and Adhere the Chicken to the center as shown. Then add to                                                      the Blushing Bride mat. Open the Mini card and add this to the right panel.
On one of the 2 ½ x 2 ½ Whisper White sheets stamp three small tulips, one medium tulip                                                      and one large tulip from the Timeless Tulip stamp set in Pool Pary ink. Then using the Basic                                                    Black Marker and the sentiment stamp set from the High Tide stamp set that has the word hope                                              in it. Color in the word hope with the marker and stamp in the upper left corner and adhere the                                                lamb you colored in earlier to the center of the sheet. Then adhere to the Crushed Curry mat.                                                  This will be added to the left panel of the open Mini Card.
On the 1 ½ x 2 ½ Whisper White sheet stamp the word “hello” from the Timeless Tulip stamp                                                  set in Black Memento ink angling back and forth (stamp it 4 times). Add to the 1 3/4 x 2 3/4                                                      Blushing Bride mat. Close the Mini card and add this to the back on the right side of the panel.                                                Set the Mini card aside and work on adding the Designer Series Paper to the main card base.
Close card base and Adhere the striped Designer Series paper to the front panels of the                                                          card base
Open card and adhere the checkered Designer Series Paper to the left and right panels.
Adhere the raindrop Designer Series Paper to the center panel and then layer the                                                                      Whisper White stamped 3 ¾ x 5 onto this panel as well. Then adhere the bunny to the lower                                                    left corner of Whisper White sheet.
Open the right panel of the card and adhere the 3 x 6 Whisper White Mini Card to the back                                                      of the right panel lining up so that there is a small white edge showing just to the left of the                                                        Blushing Bride/Hello mat and about ½” from top edge making sure to only add adhesive on                                                      the part that will be adhered to the panel.
Next stamp the work “happy” from the Wish for Everything Stamp set onto a scrap of                                                                Whisper White then fussy cut around the word then add to the card front as shown.

I love Easter!  The family traditions, and the beautiful message of the Savior.  My Grandkids love coloring eggs then having a huge Easter egg hunt in our yard!  We usually end up hiding eggs several times throughout the day.

Today I've designed a fun Z-Fold Easter card using Stampin Up's Welcome Easter stamp set and the Bird Ballad Designer Series paper.  Just add a wobble spring to the bunny and you have a delightful card!

  5. Attach the strip to the card base making sure to only add adhesive to the sections of the strip that will be adhered to the card base. (Note: the strip will be opposite of the card base meaning the longest section of the strip will be adhere to the front panel and the small section will be adhered to the back panel of the card base)
