Happy Spring!

Hi there,

Just wanted to share a happy, springy card I made.

It's actually for my sister-in-law who celebrates both Easter and Passover.

The cat is from Stampendous. I believe the Happy Spring is also from Stampendous' line. I stamped them together to come up with one big image. I colored them with my Bic markers and added a few adhesive gems as flower centers. The ribbon is from my stash. I pink flower on the bow is from a foam pack and I added an adhesive gem for a flower center. The little butterfly I found at Hobby Lobby!

Have a great holiday!

Happy Easter - Scrappy Frogs

Hi there,

Hope everyone is having a great start to the weekend!

The weather is simply gorgeous here. Been walking A LOT with my pooch. We have a blast!

Anyway, It's time for another challenge over at Scrappy Frogs. This time the team had a list of things to incorporate on their cards and we had to pick three to use on our project.

For mine I chose....

Embossing

Plaid

and Digi Stamp
Find the full list....here.

The background paper is a plaid sheet I found in a cute Spring Martha Stewart paper pack. The bunny is an adorable digi stamp from Bugaboo Stamps. Check out there fabulous digi stamps here. I colored him in with my Bic markers. Still no Copic's yet...lol! Maybe someday! The green block in the corner is embossed with the argyle Cuttlebug embossing folder. The flowers are small foam stickers I found at Hobby Lobby. I added an adhesive gem as the flower center.
That's about it.

Now it's your turn....Hop on over to Scrappy Frogs, pick your three, and play along with us here! We have a good time.

Thanks for stopping by and have a great holiday weekend!

MoJo Monday Changito

Happy Thursday everyone.

I know I've been sort of MIA this week. It's been so busy! I'm so excited though my new Scraproom furniture arrived and today we'll be starting to set it up! YAY! My very own space. My poor kitchen has just been taken over. It's feeling so sad! Not for long.

Anyway, the sketch over at MoJo Monday was another great one. If you haven't been over to check it out do so here.

Here is my take....

Both images and sentiment are from a Stampendous Changito package. I colored them with my Prisma colored pencils. The three brads at the bottom are velvet they're so cool.

Thanks for stopping by!

Pink Elelphant & Changito

Happy Monday everyone!

This week over at the Pink Elephant they are having a recipe challenge.

How fun! The recipe is to use Stamps, Punches and Embossing.

Some of my favorite things!

Here is my take.......

I used my favorite little pal Changito and colored him with my Prisma Colored pencils. I embossed the white box behind the main image with the my Paisley Cuttlebug folder. The border flower punch down the side is from Martha Stewart. I sprinkled a few Primas and a little bling.

Hope you like!

Have a great day!

Bitten By the Bug

Hi!

This week over at Bitten By the Bug Regina asked her team to use the bunny cut from Doodlecharms. As always, if I have the card I have to play along. It worked out perfect because I'm way behind in my Easter Cards.
Here is my take

I welded the Egg at 7" from the Doodlecharms cart on shadow. I cut the patterned paper from my new DCWV Whimsy stack. The bunny was cut from Doodlecharms both on shadow and regular. The pink ovals from his ears are from George. I also pop dotted him to give him a little dimension. The ribbon at the top was from my stash. I used a Prima and a button for the center. I doodle around the edge of the egg and the bunny.

Thanks for stopping by!

Hopping for the Cuttlebug Spot

Hope your having a hoppin' good day!

The challenge over at the Cuttlebug Spot this week was Double Embossing. Essentially you use two embossing folders on one piece of paper. This challenge was so cool but also a challenge. I tried three different papers before you could tell it was double embossed. I would put it through once then again and the first impression was gone. It was amazing. I finally got it and I really like the outcome.

Here is the card....

I embossed the blue band below the image with the leafy branch (my new fave folder) and swiss dots. The image is Changito Hop Easter. I colored him with my Prisma Colored pencils and stickled his ears and his little bunny slippers. I also added a tiny cotton ball for his bunny tail. I know I've said it before but I love that little monkey. The sentiment is from the same pack of stamps. The "buckle" is a Paper Studio Brad with ribbon from my stash threaded through.

I really like how this card turned out because the colors are so soft.

Have a great evening.

MoJo Monday on Wednesday!

Boy I've been late the last two weeks on the MoJo Monday challenges.

I usually have some play time on Monday mornings but not this week.

The sketch this week was fabulous, as it always is, but this may be one of my favorites. Not that the Leprechauns have all gone home it's time to prepare for the Easter Bunny!

Easter Bunny means Spring...yay!

Here is what I came up with.............

For this card I used a couple stamps and my Cricut. The little mouse is the House Mouse This Eggs for You stamp. I colored him with my Prisma Pencils. The vertical sentiment is a stamp I got at Archiver's recently. It doesn't say on the stamp who makes it...sorry.

The tag per se was cut from my George Cricut cartridge. I had to alter it a bit with Design Studio. The band across the middle is embossed with the Floral Screen Cuttlebug folder. The ribbon was from my stash and I tied two bows around one another to give the bow a bit more depth. The little flower above the bow is from the Martha Stewart tulip punch.

Hope you enjoy it!
