Today's card share is from a cute Sparkle N Sprinkle stamp set.
Some of the images are available digitally. The rest are on the Celebrate Life Rubber Stamp Set. |

A long-forgotten Spellbinders set (Fancy Tags One) was used for the sentiment, which was then distressed with distress ink and Opaline Cosmic embossing powder.
Beautiful on its own, the Spellbinders Elegant Labels Four was smooshed with VersaMark and embossed with more Opaline Cosmic embossing powder. The effect is a pearly, slightly opalescent appearance. I so wish the photography would have picked that up, instead of the over-kill around the colored sky, which was distressed with a VersaMarker and more Opaline Cosmic embossing powder. The camera has picked up the darkness rather than the opalescent quality. NOT FAIR!
Maybe you can see it a little better here?
(that silvery appearing stuff is actually a creamy iridescence.)
The outside frame is adhered with white dimensionals.
The interior mat is adhered with glue.
The bunny panel has double dimensional adhesive to pop it up a bit higher.
Love those tee-tiny white rose buds from Lavish Laces!
Her products are so sweet and reasonably priced.
Sweet little card - and the dies actually made it very easy.
Smooshing VersaMark for EP is not very difficult, either! (giggle)
Fun to make, the image was colored with copics, and a little Daisy Velvet Glitter on the flowers, butterfly and the big carnation.

First I loved the colors,second the intricate die-cuts and finally the adorable image ! Wonderful card Donna !
Loving this sweet bunny image. Gotta go check this one out on SnS web site along with the pretty smooshing product. The S/B effects are just fab with this delightfully colored image, it's so lacy & delicate. The rain we have had did a number on our tulips, but today is sunny, just much cooler. TFS & Hugs
WOW!!! Very cool color combo. The cute image and the dies works so well together.
This is such a stunning card! Love the aqua colors, and it really works great with both the image and the flowers. Great job!
Thanks for joining us this week at Through The Purple Haze. :)
Katrine- DT for TTPH.
I love those die cuts. Great layout and embellishment and of course stamping and coloring. I could see a little bit of the sparkle on the dies, and I can imagine what it looks like in person. It's so hard to capture the sparkles. Wonderful job ...as usual.
Most definitely in the stinking cute range De! Love the stamp and the colours you have used are gorgeous and perfectly spring like.
It was actually two stamps, lol, by PSX, I'm not sure if they are in business any more but I still have those two stamps - one is a Christmas tree and the other a Christmas sentiment. You got me thinking I might dig them both out again soon.
Happy Easter my very sweet and lovely friend Karen xx
A really wonderful card!!
Thank you for joining us at Fairytale Stampers!

Donna, you card is amazing as usual. I have the hardest time getting that Opaline to photograph too, maybe one day we will figure it out.
Donna your Easter card is just as sweet as can be. Just love that darling image. I was just looking at my collection of spellbinders the other day and thinking that my circles and my scalloped circles were the best purchase I ever made-I really use the heck out of those. It's fun to pull out those old ones and give them some new life. You did it perfectly with this amazing creation.
Bear hugs,
Carol

Oh, my goodness, what a darling image and presented sooooo beautifully for Easter! As always, your details and loving care make this extra special. I can see the opalescent look of the embossing powder and it is gorgeous. Love the tiny rose buds and the carnation. Don't see many carnations. Again, the tulle is a wonderful addition. Gosh, I could look all day!
Hi Donna,
This is KristyLee. You left me some wonderful comments on my blog. You said I could get a digi from Sparkle N Sprinkle. I emailed you to the email that showed on my computer. I was wondering if you received it? I went to the SNS site and I dont see an email address for you? So hopefully you get my comment here. My email is KLDeyette@yahoo.com
I left a comment on this card on the site, I really really like it. IDK if you saw my comment there? But your coloring on this is fantastic! Those Spellbinders dies you used sets this card off! I just love all of your embllies! You are one talented lady! I am so very impressed!

You've coloured that adorable image soooo well. Love the aqua and other bright colours in this one plus all the little embellishments. Man, how long does it take you to make these cards? I think I'd need two weeks given all the details you add. Your work always impresses me.
Hugs,
