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.

made them even better with your coloring.

Loved your cards and this technique of adding the dimension to the characters. The chef’s pants are great. Anita’s attention to detail makes these stamp and die sets a wonderful find.
I love the cards you created with the new Anita Jeram stamps. Your coloring skills are so awesome.
I just love the simplicity of thee cards you created with Anita Jeram’s new sets! they are beautiful. Love Art is my favorite! Your colors are really lovely!
Such a good video! I love popping up some of the images and the dotted background. Putting Anita Jeram’s signature on the cards is a nice reference to her. My favorite set of this release is Proud of You.
Oh My Gosh! This whole Colorado Craft Company release is so uplifting, and what do we need more than anything right now…but the Love Art set really captures the feeling of fellowship and community we share as artists and papercrafters, so if I have to choose, this one is my fave. (I’ll be getting all of them, though) Love your colors and the texture you have added to the backgrounds!
Love Art has to be my favourite…. but your dotty backgrounds have me thinking now. Could I achieve something similar with watercolour… errmmm.
What your colouring of these sweet sweet images! Thanks for the inspiration
Hi! Thanks for the opportunity to win a gift card from Colorado Crafts! My favorite stamp set is the Father’s Day w/ little one bouncing on daddy’s belly because it reminds me of when our son was younger & he & daddy would wrestle nightly!! I heard a lot of laughing from both ! Wonderful memories we all cherish!! Many Blessings, Tina Wetzel
Love the dot technique you use for the backgrounds of your cards. It’s so simple and grounds the super fun images!

Hi, Yana – Love your work – always! I love the way that you pop up these images to create a dynamic effect!
This is a tough choice. I think the Love Art set is my favorite. I love the quotes around the edge. I also like “Amazing Mom” a lot. I also love the little tiny “The Artist” stamp.
