"BFF" Cards by Gerry van Gent

Hello Sizzix Friends

I hope you all enjoy a sunny and relaxing Sunday!
Here, in the Netherlands, we are so lucky to have a good start
to the season - the sun is shining and it feels like a real Summer :-)

For my post today I would like to share two cards I created for my
daughter's best friends. On the last school day she wanted to give
them a small present with a card... and this is where I got involved ;-)

Cards Size: 12cm x 12cm

I placed the Spring Garden #3 die in the middle of the front
of the card and die cut it. After that I removed the excess leftover
cuts and attached back the Spring Garden #3 die to the window card.

I adhered a square pattern paper inside the card.

I decorated the die-cut flowers with sugar dots.

I used one of the Decorative Trim #2 dies by Craft Asylum 
to make a frame round the square.

For the letters I used one of the alphabet dies from our Essentials Range -
The  Wanted   alphabet by Tim Holtz.
Each letter was die cut twice -  from light/dark brown cardstock.
The dark die-cut letter I used as shadow.
I gave a "painted" look by using a white pen.

I began creating the card by stamping an egg pattern on 4
different coloured scraps from FREE EASTER PAPER DOWNLOADS.
I needed 5 eggs because of the word "happy" 
so I added a white egg in the middle....

When my stamped eggs were ready I adhered them on front of the card.
After that I added the letters H-A-P-P-Y on top of each egg.

I die cut the splats and honeycomb from white cardstock
and distressed them just a bit with yellow ink to match the title.
