the hybrid chick

Hi all!

I am here to share a cute project that I made using Kelleigh Ratzlaff Designs’ Sweet Strawberry Template and Karen Lewis Designz 5 Things I Love About You kit. I think the colors of the patterned papers in Karen’s kit are perfect for making Kelleigh’s cute strawberries.

I also used an adorable stamp from Whiff of Joy Stamps‘ Spring collection called Strawberry Girl for my card. I think it’s perfect to go with both Kelleigh and Karen’s kits since she is holding a strawberry.

This cute image is illustrated by Norma Fickel. It took me a little while to figure it out, but I think the girl is wearing an egg costume. =)

The stamped image is colored with Copic markers. I colored a few extra flowers, cut them out, and then added them to my sentiment die cut. The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink‘s Sign Language stamp set. I distressed all the patterned papers on the card using Tim Holtz’s Tea Dye and Vintage Photo distress inks. The flowers are from Prima, the lace trim is from Webster’s Pages and the button is from Papertrey Ink.

I also inked the edges of the strawberries with Tim Holtz’s Vintage Photo and Crushed Olive distress inks.

This is really fun and easy to make. I just love those strawberries! I hope my project has inspired you to try and combine your digital kits and your stamps to make a fun card/project! =)
