Carrot Express!!!

It’s Wednesday, and Easter is quickly approaching. So for this week, I used Carrot Express - S055 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps) for the main image and Canadian Easter Greetings - H139 (High Hopes Rubber Stamps) for the sentiment.

To put this card together, I first die-cut some Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card using my Cuttlebug and My Creative Time -Stitched Squares Inside and Out. Next, I stamped the image with Memento - Tuxedo Black ink using my MISTI to get a nice clean image. I put the die-cut back over the image again and used it for a template to get a nice clean white border. I created a mask out of the image and used the die-cut from Avery Elle - Custom Steel Dies - Made in the USA - D-05-01 PiercedCloudsDie and Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Salty Ocean to create the sky background.

I mounted the plaid paper from Recollections - Easter Paper onto a white card base of 5.5" x 4.25"and then edged around the image and card with Tim Holtz Distress Inks and embossed the sentiment using Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Wilted Violet and VersaMark.

Lastly, I popped up the image onto the card using 3M - VHB 2-sided tape and added in some enamel dots.
