I am really falling in love with this spring stamp set and enjoyed this making this Springtime Joy Lamb Easter Card. Yes, Easter is right around the corner so it’s time to make cards!
Be sure to check out this Springtime Joy Stamp Set in the January-June 2021 Mini Catalog (Spring Mini)! You might miss it because it’s “just” a stamp set! No Suite, no Bundle, no dies, no embellishments, just a stamp set! Like in the olden days! You’ll find it on page 22.
I wanted to make a card with the lamb in the stamp set and this is what I came up with! The card base is Melon Mambo, a color I haven’t used in awhile somehow. It has a layer of Blushing Bride Cardstock on which I stamped tulips in the same color ink, Blushing Bride.
The lamb is stamped with Memento Ink on Basic White Cardstock. I die-cut the lamb with this die in the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I started off just coloring the lamb image with Stampin’ Blends, using the lightest gray just around the lamb for a little definition around the flowers, around her face, and around the fluffs of wool on the body. The crown of flowers is colored with Melon Mambo and Flirty Flamingo and the leaves with Granny Apple Green. But I couldn’t stop! I added some grass under the lamb and then, of course, I had to have some sky with Pool Party! Just kind of scribble little scribbles if you are coloring in a larger area.
This lamb piece is layered on a scalloped rectangle of Melon Mambo, also die-cut from the Stitched So Sweetly Dies. I popped this up with Stampin’ Dimensionals.
The greeting is also in the Springtime Joy Stamp Set. It is stamped in Blushing Bride Ink and die-cut with a banner in the Tasteful Labels Dies. It is popped up on Dimensionals, too.
For the inside of the card, I adhered a layer of Basic White since the Melon Mambo is a little dark. It is stamped with the Easter greeting in the stamp set and a little tulip in the lower right corner.
For another idea, here is a card I made with the cute bunny in the Springtime Joy Stamp Set. Oddly enough, I also stamped the tulips in the background on that card, too! I was almost copying myself and didn’t know it!
If you plan to make spring and Easter cards, consider the Springtime Joy Stamp Set and make a card like my Springtime Joy Lamb Easter Card.
