Now wasn't that easy? And you do the same thing for any cart you want. I used the CTMH Art Philosophy cart as I knew it had plenty of frames to choose from but you can use any cart that you own with frames and of course any fun little piece of art to go in it. Just have fun and do the steps.
Look at the yummy papers that I picked out. They are from K and Company, their 2011 spring stack. I chose from these as they were on the top of the pile of paper stacks. LOL Still organizing and I have a closet with 75 stacks in it and it seems that only the top ones get used! LOL
Here you can see how clean the cut was. Just remember to layout your colors according to the arrow on your Gypsy matched to the direction of the arrow on your mat.
I used scrap paper for this cut and then before I even removed it from my mat I took some pink chalk and colored the little pieces for it's ears and feet as well as colored in cheeks.
Look at my Simply Charmed bunnies aren't they adorable... all ready to put on the base of the card.
And this little bunny and carrot is from Create A Critter. I have to tell you this is one of my favorite carts for making children's cards and they seem to love them too.
See how easy it is to put these cards together. I put all my outside piece together first along with any inking and stamping and then you can easily put together the entire card in a matter of just a couple of minuets.
Thought I would show you the other cards too. Designing them is done the same was as with the little duck card. EASY! And as you can see they go together in just a little time.
Thought I would show you a little close up of the cards. This is the Simply Charmed card. If you would like the file click HERE.
This is the little Create A Critter Duck card and if you would like the file click HERE.
And this one it the bunny Create A Critter card and if you want this file click HERE.
I challenge you to make your own window Easter cards this week and link it up! It can be for a child or adult as long as it has a window and an Easter theme it qualifies. Those of you that do not have a Gypsy can still enter, you can use your design studio or CCR can be used too.
