Our February release is bursting with spring creativity! From playful Easter scenes and layered egg designs to elegant florals, the Eggstra Special and Spring Meadow collections are designed to inspire cardmakers, paper crafters, and mixed media artists alike.
To get a closer look at these two collections, start with Channin’s video overview, where she highlights both collections and how the products work together.
Now let’s dive in either further to each of our February collections and take a look at some inspiring sample cards along the way.
The Eggstra Special Collection is all about cheerful Easter cardmaking and playful spring scenes. Sweet bunnies, fluffy chicks, decorated eggs, and fresh florals come together in a collection that’s perfect for everything from handmade Easter greetings to lighthearted spring hellos.
Eggstra Special Collection Products:
Create adorable spring scenes with the Color My World and Spring Tweetings stamp sets, featuring sweet bunnies, fluffy chicks, eggs, a chocolate bunny, an Easter basket, and playful spring accents. These detailed images are perfect for alcohol markers, watercolor, or colored pencil, allowing you to bring personality and charm to every card. Mix and match the elements to design egg hunts, basket-filled greetings, or whimsical bunny and chick pairings, then finish with pun-filled sentiments like “You crack me up,” “You’re a good egg,” and “Happy Easter” for a heartfelt touch.
Build out those scenes with the Landscapes Die Set to create rolling hills and grassy borders that ground your images beautifully. Add soft pastel confetti backgrounds with the Confetti Layering Stencils for a festive feel, or use the layering stencils to create patterned eggs in just minutes.
For a bold and polished focal point, the Happy Easter Letterpress + Foil & Cut set adds elevated detail and shine. This set includes two press plates and two coordinating dies — a large flowing “Happy Easter” script and a solid egg plate — ideal for adding rich letterpress texture or brilliant foiled accents. The coordinating dies cut out both the sentiment and the egg shape, making it easy to layer color, dimension, and shine into an eye-catching centerpiece that anchors your Easter cards beautifully.
Whether you prefer clean and simple layouts or layered, interactive designs, Eggstra Special makes it effortless to combine stamping, stenciling, die cutting, and foiling into cohesive spring projects.
The Spring Meadow Collection captures the elegance of blooming gardens with beautifully detailed lilacs, delicate florals, and graceful script backgrounds. Designed for cardmakers who love dimension and layering, this collection blends softness with sophistication.
Spring Meadow Collection Products:
Create realistic floral arrangements using the No One Lilac You Stamp Set. Color lush lilac bouquets or keep it simple with tone-on-tone stamping. Build dimensional blooms from layered cardstock with the Layered Lilac Die Set. Vary ink shades or cardstock tones to achieve natural depth, and add subtle shaping for even more lifelike texture.
The Meadow Blooms Cover Plate paired with the coordinating Meadow Blooms Layering Stencils make it simple to create full-panel floral designs with beautifully blended color. These layered backgrounds are perfect for birthdays, thank you cards, encouragement notes, and Mother’s Day designs.
The Birdsong Script Cling Stamp is one of those timeless designs you’ll reach for again and again. The flowing script adds soft texture and visual interest, whether you stamp it tone-on-tone, layer it over light ink blending, or use it to create a subtle pattern on die cuts. It’s an effortless way to create background interest without overwhelming your focal point.
For quick and modern embellishment, the Grids & Icons Hero Transfers add instant personality and layered detail. With five different sheets featuring unique patterns and graphic icons, they’re a fun way to introduce mixed media flair — simply rub on to add depth and visual interest to cards, journals, and scrapbook pages.
And when it comes to finishing your projects, Everyday Sentiment Strips 2 is truly a must-have staple. This single large stamp includes 44 classic sentiments that can be stamped and cut apart into individual strips, giving you an supply of go-to greetings in one set. Designed to coordinate with the Sentiment Strips Fancy Die, these timeless messages make it easy to add clean, polished sentiments to any card in seconds.
From bold dimensional florals to soft ink-blended panels, Spring Meadow offers endless opportunities to layer texture, color, and heartfelt sentiment into beautiful handmade cards.
