Happy Good Friday!
Today is the day we celebrate God's amazing love - and this year, today is also my very special friend's birthday! So now that she has her card, I can share it with you.
The background is sponged, smooshed and sprtized and dribbled and splattered, using Iced Spruce, Twisted Citron and Hickory Smoke Distress Oxides. The images are a roughly stamped and clear embossed Studio Light stamp, which I also stamped onto white card, coloured, fussy cut and glued over the stamped images. Splatters - which are hard to see - are Delicata Gold and Gold UTEE, sprinkled and embossed. Circles are jar lids, used as stamps. I really enjoyed making this one.
I made this Easter card yesterday, just to wish you all a Happy Easter.
Spring is here, new life and growth are all around us.
Celebrate the hope of Easter!
The flowers are stamped with spritzed markers, then defined a little with Prisma pencils.

Your cards are brilliant, Cath. I love your choice of colors and your choice of stamps. I just learned you have stepped down from the TioT design team and am saddened. I just hope you continue to create lovely art like what you have created in the past.
Happy Good Friday and Happy Easter. Take care of yourself and stay safe, please.
Two gorgeous cards and backgrounds! Wishing you a happy Easter.
Take care and stay safe.

This weekend is a celebration of hope. I think we all hope that one thing that will change is that this disease. AT least hope it will not kill and make so many people sick. Beautiful cards today Cath, and I hope you have a wonderful Easter and Easter weekend. Hugs-Erika

Great cards with excellent backgrounds. I love the texture you've created with UTTE in the first one. And about the second card I love the delicate desing you've created, it's beautiful.
Happy Easter!!!. Hugs, María.

Hi Cath,
This is lovely with the light spring green and background art. Thanks for entering our challenge at Artsystamper Digitals Challenge! I truly hope we see you again soon. Hugs, Bev ARTSYSTAMPER DIGITALS
Woww what wonders Cath !! I love your cards, they are spectacular, beautiful.
I really like the colours you have chosen for both cards, and of course, I love butterflies.
I hope you had a good Easter, and that you are well.
Stay safe and well,
Big hugs, Caty
Two beautiful cards. Each so very different but each as lovely. I like the one for your friends birthday, what delightful greens you chose. I have just used Iced Spruce on a background I was making as it is not a colour I tend to reach for usually. I like it with the Twisted Citron but then I am a real fan of the lime greens. So simple in its simplicity if you follow what I am trying to say - beautiful words which are perfect for a special friend.
Love the way the blue flowers have turned our on the other card. What a lovely combination of ink and pencil you used for the flower heads and what a fresh green for the stems.
Hope you have had a lovely Easter, sorry I am so late coming on here - I don't know what has got into me lately.
Hugs, Neet xx
love this mixed media/collage card!!! right up my alley....so well done
xx Karen
