Happy Wednesday!
Welcome to Day 3 of Release Week! For my Inspired by Stamping post today, I am showcasing the new Flower of the Month: Easter Lily stamp set. This stamp set includes two images and five sentiments.
I have created a tri-shutter Easter card:
I started by using the FOTM:
Easter Lily cut file and Butterflies
cut file to cut all the elements I needed for my card. The pretty lily
image, this is the larger of the two images in the FOTM:
Easter Lily stamp set, was colored with alcohol markers. As I wanted
the butterflies, from the Butterflies
stamp set which released on Monday, to have a soft look, I used a blender pen
and dye inks to color them.

Here is the card opened:
To make a tri-shutter card you
start with a 5½ x 12 piece of card stock. With the 5½ edge along the top of your
paper trimmer, place the left edge at the 1¾ mark and cut down from 2 inches to
10 inches. Flip your paper over and repeat on the other side. Turn your paper
to the 12 inch edge and score at 2, 4, 8, and 10. Note, at 2 and 10, don’t
score the entire length of your paper, just on the outer sides of the cut
lines.

Stunning card, Lisa, inside and out!
Lisa, this is just absolutely one of my most favorite cards you have made! Do you sell your cards on Etsy? Also, if I didn't say so before, thank you so much for my Birthday card. I pulled through surgery ok.

Lisa, deine Tri-Shutter-Karte hast du ganz wundervoll gestaltet! Diese Kartenform mag ich eigentlich sehr gern, jedoch habe ich sie schon lange nicht mehr angewendet!
