AI images for Easter cards...

I found a couple of AI images online that were free to use. I thought they'd make pretty Easter cards, so here's how I used them:

The image that I used on these cards was perfect for this style of card. I cut my top-folding card front an inch shorter than the card back and sized my image to fit that space.

I picked three colors that were used in the image and chose some cardstock in those colors to make my bases.

Of course, the lavendar one was my favorite.

I had some pretty butterfly stickers from the Dollar Tree, so I used one on each card. I thought they were the perfect embellishments.

I stamped a sentiment on the inside to finish each card. The photo at left shows how it looked when the card was opened.

This was another AI image that featured flowers and butterflies.

This time I die-cut a butterfly for each card and then used some blending brushes to add ink so that they resembled the butterfly in the AI image.

I popped each wing up with a tiny foam dot and glued the butterfly's body directly to the card.

The scripty "happy easter" was also die-cut and glued directly to the card front.

As a final embellishment, I added a few gems.

Since I was printing out the AI image for these cards, I also printed out a sentiment for the inside.

I have saved this image and the inside sentiment in a Word document. If you use Word, and would like to have it, just send me an email (see the link under "Contact" on the righthand side of my blog's homepage).

Thanks so much for stopping by, and remember to laugh--a little or a lot--every day.
