Hoppy Easter eggs ...

Got a few minutes in my craft room this afternoon so thought I would play along with the folks at Mod Squad Challenge.  The challenge this week is to make an Easter card.  Here's mine ... 

Stamps:  Hoppy Easter (Verve); Bunny Buddies (SU)
Paper:  White, Pink Pirouette, Lucky Limeade (SU) 
Ink:  Black (Memento & Versafine)
Accessories:  Copics; washi tape, clear embossing powder (Michaels); polka dot embossing folder (CuttleBug); glitter pen (Wink of Stella); Scan n Cut (Brother)

The grass was cut with with my Brother Scan n Cut. The eggs were stamped, colored and cut out with Brother.  The blue panel is washi tape which I am just starting to use and liking it.  A little late to jump on that band wagon.

Thanks for stopping by and as always ...

Have a great day!

Hoppy Easter

Hoping to get this into the Mod Squad Challenge before it closes.  Seems I'm always cutting it close.  The good news, I'm also entering this into Tuesday Morning Sketches which just went up today. 


Stamps: Hoppy Easter (Verve)
Paper:  White, Baja Breeze (SU); Green (Recollections) 
DP:  Bright and Basics (Recollections)
Ink:  black (Memento and Versafine)
Accessories:  clear embossing powder, pop dots; oval die (Spellbinders); Scan n Cut (Brother); wink of stella glitter pen (Zig)

Went for something a little different by making a square card.  This one measures 5 1/2 x 5 1/2.  The bow tie and flower are 3D.  First time I've done this before and I do like the look.  

Thanks for stopping by and as always ...

Have a great day!

Benjamin Bunny

This card was supposed to be entered into the Tuesday Morning Sketch which closed at 7 p.m. tonight.  I got the card finished around 5 and went to show it to my hubby.  He was watching TV and I cuddled up next to him to tell him about the card.  To make a long story short, I fell asleep and missed the deadline.  Oh well, at least I got a nice head massage out of it and a cute card.


Stamps:  Benjamin Bunny (Sweet n Sassy)
Paper:  Marina Mist (SU); White (Hammermill)
DP:  Bright n Basics (Recollections)
Ink:  Early Espresso, Marina Mist (SU); onyx black (Versafine)
Accessories:  Copics; clear embossing powder; circle and label six dies (Spellbinders); sequins; glossy accents (Ranger); sponge dauber (SU)

Thanks for stopping by and as always ...

Have a great day!

It's a Paper Players Sketch



Today's card is for The Paper Players sketch challenge which was designed by the very talented LeAnne.  She came up with this layout ...



I came up with this card ...


Stamps:  Bunny Buddies, A Good Egg
Paper:  Pink Pirouette, Certainly Celery, So Saffron, White
DSP:  Pawsitively Paws
Ink:  Memento Black, Certainly Celery
Accessories:  SU - word window, label and corner rounder punches, sponge dauber, NON SU - Prisma Markers, Nestabilities oval and circle dies, Cuttle Bug diamond embossing folder, gems, ribbon, glitter glue
All products are SU unless otherwise noted.

  • Bunny Buddies is long retired from the SU family.  Believe it came out in 2000.  I had to pull it out of a bag of stamps that I want to sell.  
  • I added glitter glue to the petals on the flower to give it a little glam.
  • It is a rainy afternoon here, hence the dark background of my picture.

Thanks for stopping by and as always ...

Have a great day,

I feel like a ... spring chicken

It's Thursday ... time for another Pals Paper Arts challenge.  This week we have an inspiration photo to help us get started on creating a Spring, Easter, flower, hat, etc. card.

I decided to pull out my old faithful A Good Egg stamp set for this challenge.  Have to admit after that, I was stumped.  So I stamped, looked, crumpled my paper and threw it away.  This happened a couple of times and then I thought I'm just going with whatever I do next.  So, this is what happened my next time at stamping ...

Stamps:  A Good Egg
Paper:  White, Concord Crush
DSP:  Blushing Bride, Concord Crush
Ink:  Chocolate Chip, Blushing Bride, Concord Crush
Accessories:  Stampin' Pastels, circle cutter, word window punch, corner rounder, sponge dauber, ribbon, scor-pal
All supplies are SU unless otherwise noted.

I found the directions for this little treat box on the Scor-Pal website. They had the measurements for three different sizes and this is the middle size.  Easy to make and great to hold some yummy Easter treats.  Here is a picture of the back ...


Along with the cute treat holder, I made a 3 x 3 card to accompany it. After all my fretting, I ended up liking the end result.

I hope you will find some time this week to play with the rest of the talented Design Team Pals.  Other good news ... we have Blog Candy to give away this week too! 

As always, thanks for stopping by and please let me know if I can help you in anyway.

Have a great day,
Pam~
