I’m back today with a cheerful spring card that brings together a couple of the products I shared earlier this week in my Craft Table Confessions—the Lovely Arrangement dies and the Wooly Friends punch.
For this card, I started with a Pretty in Pink cardstock base and layered a 3-¾” x 5” piece of Basic White cardstock on top. Using blending brushes, I softly created a spring sky and grassy meadow background—one of my favorite ways to build a scene from scratch.
The tulips were stamped using the Easter basket stamp set, but what I really want to highlight is the small white layer behind them. This piece was die-cut using one of the Lovely Arrangement dies, and I think it deserves a little extra attention. It’s subtle, but it adds dimension and a delicate backdrop that really helps the stamped images stand out.
Of course, the star of the card is the sweet lamb created with the Wooly Friends punch. I added a soft balmy blue ribbon bow for a bit of texture and charm—it’s such a simple addition but makes a big impact.
To finish the card, I added a “hello, spring” sentiment and a few tiny brushed butterflies for a light, whimsical feel.
This card is a great reminder that even the smallest dies and details in your collection can elevate your designs in a big way.
Thanks so much for stopping by—hope this inspires you to take another look at the tools already on your craft table!
