Happy Easter!

 I thought a Springtime card would be nice.  These remind me of the Cherry Blossoms that are in bloom now.

• The card base is Whisper White with a front of Petty in Pink. An opening was cut with the Label Framelit in the front of the card base and cut the next lager size into the Pretty in Pink front.
• With Versamark  En Francais was stamped  on the Pretty in Pink piece.
• On the inside of the card the lager image of flowers from Bordering on Romance  was stamped  with Stazon and stamped it a second time onto a scrap of Whisper White. The image was colored with Ink and a Blender Pen. 
• Two flowers from the stamping on a scrap piece was cut out with snips. and adhered with Mini Glue Dots around the opening.
• Mini Pearl Jewels were colored with a sharpie and added to the flowers on the front of the card.

I hope you like the card. Have a wonderful day.

Every Egg

Here is the last Easter card I made.

I had strips of Watercolor  paper left over from cutting paper for a class. . .here is what I ended up doing with them.

• The card base is Whisper White( I know rare for me to use white with Watercolor paper but the DSP I was using had a white background) I cut the bottom off the front of the card with the Adorning Accents Edgelits die, then embossed it top and bottom with the Adorning Accents Textured Impressions Embossing Folders,
• On the bottom of the inside of the card I added a strip of DSP from the Summer Smooches promotion. The design reminds me of eggs.
• On a strip of Watercolor paper I ran the Every Egg wheel in Stazon across the strip. I colored the images with Watercolor Wonder Crayons and an Aqua Painter.
• I layered the image onto a piece of Island Indigo and then onto two pieces of Daffodil Delight that had been punched with the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch.

I think this is my favorite of the Easter cards I made this year. Do you have a favorite?

Well it is snowing here and no longer looks and feels like spring. I need to go out on knock snow off the branches of the trees that are in bloom. Have a wonderful day!

Easter

The inspiration for this card came from this card http://stampingwithsandi.com/stampin-up-up-in-the-air-stamp-set/

• The card base is Naturals White.
• I used the Butterfly punch to make a stencil, then along the left side of the card I sponged Lucky Limeade, Baja Breeze, Calypso Coral and Daffodil Delight butterflies.
• I used the Flower Garden embossing folder laid it over the the butterflies and ran it through the Big Shot. I then sanded the ink off of the raised portions of the card.
• Happy Easter is from Heaven Blessed I stamped it with Versamark onto Baja Breeze and embossed it with Tangerine Tango Embossing powder. I then cut it out with the smallest Label Framlit.
• I cut out two Daffodil Delight Framelits and cut them in half different directions and framed them under the phrase.  I then added it to the front of the card.

I hope that you have a great april fools day and that you don't get pranked too often.

He is really into film making, he takes thre classes relating to film as a Senior in High School and is currently an intern for a film company.  Yesterday was the School Film Festival Ryan had several film projects entered in several catagories, he won 3 first place(2 minute comedy, music video and short film) and one second place(short film) and his films will be going onto State. So proud of my boy!

• The bunny from Heaven Blessed was stamped with Stazon onto Watercolor paper and colored with Ink and an Aqua Painter, then  The phrase was added below the image stamped with Island Indigo. Then it was cut with the smallest Label Framelit die using the Big Shot.
• Using the smallest Label Framelit 2 Daffodil Delight CS were cut each was cut in half a different direction and layered behind the image to frame it.  A piece on Island Indigo CS was cut with the next size larger Framelit and the image was layered onto it and the it was added to the Card Front.
• This card goes together pretty quick!

Have a wonderful day and thanks for stopping by.

Easter is Coming

For this years Easter class we made a card, basket and sucker covers, here is the basket and suckers.

• Basket instructions can be found at http://www.thelittleblueroom.com/2009/10/make-take-mondaya-little-late.html. I changed it to have one handle that I made using the Dotted Scallop Ribbon Border punch and used Pear Pizzazz CS for the basket.  The bunny has been around for a few years, I made mine with Chocolate Chip, Crumb Cake and Pretty in Pink CS
• I am sorry I can't find where I saw the sucker covers, I thought I saw it on Stampin' Connection the demo only site the Stampin' Up! provides. but I couldn't locate the picture(often I see a project that interests me and instead of hunting down instructions I figure it out on my own). The cover is made with the Two Tags die.
• I used the book mark looking tagcand used a 5" x 2 1/2" piece of Pool Party CS scored and folded it in half, placed it on the die with the fold just above the bottom cut line so that when cut the scallops are on both ends. I scored it just under the scallops and then punched a small hole in the fold. I scored it again 4 1/2" down from that score. 
• I made the the mini punch art pieces on 1 3/4" Scallop Circle punched CS. The egg is the Small Oval cut 1/3 the way down in a jagged cut, the chick is a So Saffron small flower from the Boho Flower punch the eyes are the sprinkles from the Cupcake Builder punch.
• The bunny is the Small Oval for the body, a 3/4" circle for the head and the ears are from the daisy on the Blossom Party die. The Tail is the small heart from the Owl punch.

If you like these let me know and if anyone knows who came up with the sucker idea let me know, I am pretty sure the covers I saw were Valentine's. Thanks.
