Hello, there! I have 4 cards to share featuring the April 2021 Anita Jeram Illustrations release from Colorado Craft Company. This my 3rd time sharing cards made with the stamps created from Anita’s illustrations and I am just as excited as I was the first time I got to create with these products. Anita’s illustrations are so whimsical, they are so pretty and they are a treat to color because they are so simplistic. The images are quite detailed, but you can apply just a little bit of color and you have yourself very pretty results.
There are quite a few new stamp sets are releasing this month, mostly designed to work for Mother’s Day and Father’s Day cards, but the images in these can be adapted to cards and occasions all year round and I’ll see that the cards I have for you today aren’t exactly geared towards Mother’s or Fathers day, they are more generic.

Are you kidding me?! I just love how you made these cute critters come so alive……love the dimension but I’m not sure that I could make such delicate cuts.
