Still using those stickers...

I was determined to use up an entire sheet of stickers, and since they were mostly images of spring flowers, I used them to make more Easter cards.

I used two identical stickers of yellow crocuses at the base of a die-cut cross. The cross was cut from kraft cardstock. All the interior pieces were cut from a dark brown cardstock with a sheen. I pieced them back into the design of the cross. 


The sentiment was stamped directly onto the DSP.

There were quite a number of small round shapes cut into the design of the cross. In the four largest circles, I glued a gold gem. The tinier round circles were filled with a metallic gold Viva Decor pen.






On the inside, I stamped a sentiment and added a small strip of the DSP.


As you can see, I added some of the same DSP to this card, only this time I matted it with some blue cardstock.


I cut another small panel from white cardstock and again, added a blue mat. This small panel was adhered with foam tape to give it some dimension.

I stamped the sentiment and used a "grass" border punch to create the border. After adhering the grass, I tucked in some blue crocus stickers at random, creating a little Spring scene.




I stamped the sentiment on a panel for the inside and added a thin strip of DSP, matted in blue. As a final touch, I adhered the last of the crocus stickers.

It was very satisfying to use up a sheet of stickers. Oftentimes, when the thrift store gives me sheets of stickers, they are only partially usable or, sometimes, not at all usable. Stickers do not always age well!

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