Spring Easter Card Featuring Di's Digi Stamps Easter Friends Digi

Easter card featuring Di's Digi Stamps Easter Friends digi, colored with Caran d'Ache Luminance pencils, by Paperesse.

Di's has the cutest Spring/Easter digital stamps. My spring card making season wouldn't be complete without at least one of her digis on a card. This one – Easter Friends – is a recent acquisition. If you'd like some tips on shading your white Easter bunny stamps with pencils, check out the crafty tip on this past favorite (featuring yet another Di's bunny digi).

Paper is from an Artoz paper pack (a Swiss company) I found in an outlet recently. I was so pleased. I love Artoz papers, but since they're a wee bit pricy I've only ever bought a sheet at a time. The sentiment was created with Annie BTN font. Black matt enamel dots are the finishing touch.

 I was hesitant to use these matt dots as they're my favorite (they don't shine in photos) and I'm running out; unfortunately, nothing else looked as good. I checked on Amazon to reorder and the price has increased 190%!!! When I last ordered a pack in 2017 they were €4.05; today they're €11.77 (about $12.90 at today's rate of exchange). And that's just one small pack. Yeah, I do like them, but I don't know if I like them THAT much. I didn't order them.

  8. 190% price increase?! That’s ridiculous! The matte dots do look nice though. And good score on the paper! Another precious card, Shani!

  9. What a cute card! I especially love that sentiment. An 190% increase is insane. I might be looking at some of those discount shopping sites instead of Amazon. *hint hint* (:
