Spring into a Spring Loaded Gift Card Holder From StampinUp Scrap Paper

Spring... while I love winter and the beautiful snow, the crisp air, the cleansing and rest of it all... I am so very excited about Spring.  I have been learning, thanks to my friends Whitney, Traci, Lesli and even my Uncle Richard and Aunt Joani... about gardening.  We started the process of plants at the front of our home... from a variety of flowers including daisies to zinnias... and recently we planted a few hundred bulbs - from tulips to hyacinths across our yards.  With bunnies in town (we don't seem to get any long the river - that I have seen) to TURTLES in our river (We found a hole in my food garden - to find that there were turtle eggs within!  They hatched before we could see them, sadly, but with life upon the river it comes with the most fun wildlife!).
So, with the promise of a fabulously colorful and fragrant Spring... this whimsical handmade card came to mind.  Grabbing Paper Scraps (I love when I can use them up!) and these FUN Paper Crafting Springs... this Spring card SPRINGS to life with a BONUS Gift Card and Pattern Filled life.

Happy Spring, tattoo inspired handmade card

I have a little secret... I love tattoo art.  It may NOT be for everyone, but I love what an artist can draw - on human skin even!  A friend of mine is an AMAZING tattoo artist and we were discussing her doing art on paper for people as well. (I even ordered a piece of art from Katelyn Crane and you can also!) It's funny, here, as Mother Goose and Tattoos combine to create a cute Fable Friends handmade Easter card!

Fable Friends Mother Goose Spring handmade card inspired by Tattoo Art GettingCrafty.net
 The art that was often featured in Old Mother Goose books always enthralled me - as a child until now.  I LOVE that Stampin' Up! created the most beautiful childlike whimsical art, much like the Victorian Children's books written.
****
~  Cutting the Balmy Blue card stock to 3" x 4-1/2", the Crumb Cake card stock to 3-1/4" x 4-3/4".
~  Stamping the Momma goose and babies in Stazon black ink on the Balmy Blue.
~  Using the Watercolor Pencils in Granny Apple Green, Daffodil Delight, Balmy Blue, Flirty Flamingo, Bermuda Bay and (my hero of the watercolor pencil collection) Whisper White!
~  Add sparkle and blend the color (cleaning the tip between each color use) with Clear Wink of Stella.
TOOL TIP:  Any use of 'coloring' with the likes of Wink of Stella, Blender Pens, Aqua Painters, etc - keep on hand a cleaning 'junk' napkin to clean the tip in-between each color to avoid muddling.


 I had fun with a variety of looks, the 'rain' of our adhesive backed Rhinestone Jewels or adding a Sun.
***
DON'T FORGET:  The OUTSIDE of the card is a great way to give a 'sneak peak' of what will be inside... and the INSIDE of the card continues the joy with little time or effort!

Here is some fun 'math' for you...

Tattoo Artist inspired.. @randahaddadin on Instagram doodling on her leg... 
Tattoo art is often missed for the sheer beauty of it.  
Here one artist was featured on one of the tattoo art pages I follow... 
her art ALWAYS brings a smile to my face.  What do YOU think?
If ONLY I could Draw as well on myyyy jeans, lol... 
I'd be sporting inked jeans EVERYWHERE!

What Others are SAYING about Getting Crafty with Jamie

Jamie is so passionate and creative about making cards - and wants everyone else to join her in the fun! She is so encouraging and positive in her attitude, helping me along when I get frustrated - and then rejoicing with me at the finished product! I love going to her classes to get new ideas, learn techniques, and have loads of fun in the process. ~ Christine C.

Jamie has wicked awesome classes! If you don’t like a particular stamp or paper/ink color Jamie wants you to change it to suit your style! I did my sister-in-law’s entire bridal shower from invitations/thank you cards, party favors to decorations, it was quaint and whimsical! Everyone ooh’d and ahh’d! I’ve had lots of special requests for classes and Jamie delivers; she always has tasty treats and flavored coffees too ~Ashley W.

I have been attending Jamie's classes for over a year. Her ideas for cards are fresh and fun. She always tries to have several different styles of cards available, so everyone gets to make cards that fit their personal style. The techniques she shows each class can be used in many different applications. She is very patient teacher when instructing class members on how to use the Stampin Up products. ~ Carol D.

If I looked up the word sparkle in the dictionary, I would find Jamie Albanese picture there. I have had the sweet blessing of knowing Jamie and her family for over 5 years now. Every time I am with her I feel loved and inspired. When I am in one of her classes I feel my creative juices flow, as she encourages me to go outside my comfort zone. Jamie helped our girl scout troop make cards for a soldier who needed some encouragement!!! For any of you who have not been in one of Jamie's classes, please don't let another day slip by. She is a beautiful friend and she will become yours too. ~ Blessings, Karen:-)

Jamie has a great eye for style and flair, and it shows in her work. Yet she can pick up on your own individual style and makes great recommendations. I love that she is always flexible for last-minute decision maker mommies like me! So much fun to host craft events with your friends and family - that personal touch always means so much. ~ Adonna
