Just Inklined To Hop -Meadow Rabbit

Good morning, happy Monday & welcome to this month's


It's a bit of a sad hop as we have lost our wonderful boss lady
who has moved on to pastures new & we wish her the very best of luck 
for the future & her new ventures! 
We'll miss you Jak!
Our host this time is our lovely & very talented new DT boss lady,
Tammy & the theme this time is Spring!
If you're already hopping, you'll have come from Gaynor's blog,
if not, pop back to Tammy & start from there!
Here's my card


The image I have used is Meadow Rabbit,
I thought it was just perfect for a little Easter card!

If you're in a hurry to hop on, your next stop is our brand new teamie
Don't forget, as always, we have a spot prize for someone who leaves a comment
along the way. So be sure to leave some love at each stop!
Here is the hop order just incase you need it!
Dawn (that's me!)
If you want to know a little more about my card, read on!


As you can see, I made a little scalloped circle Easel Card
I used a Grand Nestie die to cut out the card base.
The CS is Dottie Card from Anne Marie Designs
I coloured the image using my usual mix of flexmarkers
& promarkes, then inked with Antique Linen & Old Paper
Distress Inks whilst still in the die.
I did this to the card base too!
I added the sentiment just under the image by opening a
text box in word. The font I have used is called Bunny. 
You can download it here for free!
For the easel stop, I added a chunky button which was threaded 
with button twine tied in a bow.


Here's a little side view so you can see the fold.
Don't forget Nicole is your next stop on the hop!

It's Robin Week!

Morning blogland! 
Happy Thursday to you!
It's time for my Just Inklined card!



Meet Rotten Robin he's available at Just Inklined for the  princely sum of 59p
I just couldn't resist adding the Bah Humbug! sentiment.
The font I've used is called Frosty & you can get it free here
If you look at the Just Inklined blog, you'll see lots of Robins this week!
Lol! We must have all been of the same mind!
My base was cut using a scalloped circle Grand Nestability then
folded in half. The paper is digital freebie (it's been printed out in my stash forever)
& I can't remember where it was from.
When I do I'll add a link!


I coloured him up with Promarkers, chalked around with red
& chalked the background with blue but it's hard to see!
I then cut him out with a circle nestie & matted on to a scalloped circle.
I added little silver punched snowflakes with a Papermania gem at the centre.


The ribbon was from Lidl they have some great crafty bits & pieces sometimes


I tied a bow & added a sliver bell from MeiFlower.


I trimmed the tiniest bit off the bottom at the back to stop the card 
falling over to one side.
Thanks for stopping by, I hope you like my card!

A Round Happy Birthday

Good Afternoon all!
I'd like to share this card that I made with you all!
It was for a friend at works mum.
The lady is a certain age & I have include some self adhesive glittery numbers to attach 
but for the purpose of my blog, we have left them off!


It's quite a simple round card, made with pearlescent cardstock.
I cut two circles using my Scalloped Circle Grand Nesties, 
I scored one so it could fold & adheresd them together.
I added a smaller scalloped circle in pearlescent pink.
The sentiment was cut using my Nellie Snellen framie die.
It was printed onto the white pearlescent card.
 The font I used is Sunshine Poppy.
You can download it for free here!
It's one of my favourite fonts!
Embellishment wise, I added some flat backed pearls around the pink circle,
a flower which was hand made by Lee AKA Crafty Loops (Thanks Lee!)
& some  leaves which were punched from the pearlescent card stock
the coloured with a promarker.
I also added a little chiffon ribbon double bow.
The inside of the card is decorated too but sadly the photo was blurry
& I have already handed the card on so can't get another!
