Posted in Circle Charm Pop up, Easter

Happy Easter to my girls

Wow, this is my 50th Craft Roulette submission, its so hard to believe that I’ve made it to 50. Club 52 is just around the corner. I decided to make 3 Easter cards for my grand daughters. When it comes to their birthdays and Christmas they each get their own special card, when comes to Easter, Valentine’s and Halloween I tend to make them the same card but with some slight difference. For this card I used the same colour of card stock but mixed them up slightly differently with each card.

Here are this week’s Craft Roulette parameters.

This card has multiple folds but I am counting the main fold and I folded the corner of the patterned paper on the front of the card. I used nice bright jelly bean colours. Math was a bit more difficult but since I made 3 cards I had to multiple every piece by 3, I also had to count all the eggs. I used a Versa Mark marker to add all the shading.

To make the A2 sized cards I cut and folded to the dimensions below. I also cut the patterned paper as shown. It is double sided paper. I decided to use sponge daubers and ink around the edges of all the pieces. On the purple and white side I used 4 different colours. Purple, pink, turquoise, and green. On the pink side I just used pink. I also added white highlights to the flowers on the purple side.

I added the panels to the card base as shown, folding the top left corner of what will be the front. I followed Karen Burnistons video tutorial for her Circle Charm Pop up

I cutout the circle mechanism still following Karen directions.

I cut out several circles and rings using the same Circle Charm Pop Up set. In the photo the middle circles are pink but I decided to use blue.

I started adding circles and rings to the card base.

I die cut and assembled the chick (with an extra chick) bunny, and Easter basket with eggs using dies from the Spring Animals. I cut β€œHappy Easter” from the Easter Charms dieset, three times and layered . I added shading with a Versa Mark Marker, and highlights with a white Gelly Roll pen. I cut the scalloped white circles using a circle from the Circle Charm Set, and inked the edges as shown. I attached the duck following Karens video, sandwiching a thread between the two ducks, that is tied to the circle that will go behind the one that attaches the front circle to the back.

I diecut the girls names using the Mini Alphabet and numbers and added all the elements as shown.
