Easter Mixed Media Decoration Inspiration

Thanks for stopping by to check out my Easter Mixed Media Decoration Inspiration!



For this project I used:
- small canvas
- acrylic paints
- burlap
- vintage board game pieces
- dried flowers
- lace ribbon
- silk ribbon 
- vintage sewing thread
- wooden candle stick holder
- vintage paper die cuts
- Tim Holtz crackle paint
- Tim Holtz distress & oxide inks
- Tim Holtz distress stain
- Tim Holtz distress crayon
- Tim Holtz ideology baseboard frame
- Tim Holtz ideology mini plaquette
- hot glue
- fabri-tac

.

Thrift shops are a great place to find cheap and different items to incorporate into your designs. I always look at the old games as well as old spools filled with fun thread! I wouldn't use it to sew something, but I LOVE adding thread as an element in my mixed media as well as cards... the old wooden spools are just an added bonus!

A Good Day to Hippity Hoppity (Stampin Up) Easter Card

We had a very productive morning. We woke up and started to craft.. my daughter and I really enjoyed making this adorable Easter card... you can never be too prepared or early right?



Using the Stampin Up A Good Day stamp set and a few other supplies I had on hand, we were able to come up with this super sweet design. 

(My sentiment “Hippity Hoppity” is an older Stampin Up set I have called “And Many More”, if you don’t have it you can find it online on eBay or Etsy, a quick google search will pull up a few results).



Adding a little Peacock Feathers distress ink to some texture paste we created a little bit of color and texture (obviously). 


Using a circle punch to cut out the little bunny, and a scalloped circle to cut out glittery pink card stock to add some dimension and a little more texture, I added a little nest of some plain thread that matched the bluish green color perfectly. 


Add a couple of banner pieces cut from some old sheet music and there you have it! A simple yet totally adorable Easter card.
