Sassy Easter Bunny....

Good Afternoon Everyone,

Hope your all doing fine, I must say I think Spring has finally arrived in my part of the world as well, as we've been having such lovely weather the last couple of days.

So yes, I made another Springy/Easter Card yesterday, I went into my local craft shop and couldn't help myself when I saw the lovely spring papers she had available from Kanban, so I bought a few sheets and couldn't wait to get home to do something with it....

So here it is:

  My Card Recipe:

My image is a digi from Sassy Studio's and I've had her for ages, but never used her, so I really wanted to use her therefore I decided to colour her.

I used my Promarkers matching her dress and other colours to colours from the papers I wanted to use.

I added some stickles to her dress for some extra sheen and glam...

I used the Sketch from the Sketch Saturday Challenge blog and then I added the stitching by hand.

The Rose was handmade by myself using some flower punches and then inked the edges. The white small flowers was just very old flowers I had in my stash. The swirl was cut out using a cricut machine. Lastly I added the 3 little white pearls and the digi sentiment.

I hope you all like it....Thank You for taking time to stop by blog. Hopefully you will find something that inspired you.

Easter Blessings...

Good Evening Everyone,

Yes, I am back with another Easter Card I made today.

I used an Easter Stamp I won last year from Alotta Rubber Stamps and never inked up before, so I digged them out this morning and this is what I made.

My Card Recipe:

Alotta Rubber Easter Stamp - Coloured using my Promarkers

The Papers is from a Dovecraft Paper pad - Fairtales, I went for these because of the soft pastel colours.

I kept it fairly simple with not a lot of Embellishments as I want to keep them economical to post.

I hope you all like it...

I used some green card which I embossed with my daisies embossing folder and my cuttlebug.

Good Morning Everyone,

How are you all doing? It is a bit dull and quite cold in part of the world this morning....

I have been up and about quite early this morning as I had a midwife appointment, and everything is fine with me and little one....apart from we're just not getting a lot of sleep as I am getting a bit uncomfortable, but anyway.

I have another card to show you this morning....

I have only realised that I needed a birthday card this morning so I went for something Clean and simple to make it quick, so I decided to go with No image but have my sentiment as my focus.

I embossed the top panel using my Swiss dots embossing folder and my cuttlebug and then I used a Martha Stewart punch to punch the bottom border, I then decided to add the dotted pattern paper for a touch of colour. The little daisies was a die I used from my cuttlebug, which I just added the little green brads. The Happy Birthday sentiment was then lastly stamped onto a white die cut, which is a Nellie Snellen die I used.

I am entering this into the following challenges:
Allsorts - Say it with flowers
Birthday Sundays - Use Green
Cupcake Crafts - Going Dotty
Crafty Ribbons - Birthdays

Good Morning Everyone,

Looks like the card bug has bitten me again....lol

I have been crafting quite a bit the last few days....but I am not going to complain I am going to enjoy it while it lasts...as I have only really got about 4 weeks left, then I have to get everything for the baby ready and after that, Who knows if I will have any time left to craft....

Anyway I needed a Birthday card for a friend so I made this one...

I have had the image for absolutely ages, as it was one of my winnings quite a while back from Bugaboo stamps and she is called Dotty about Cake, so I decided to go all dotty on her.....I coloured my image using my Promarkers.

The floral papers is from Kate Knight paper pad which I got a while back with one of the card making magazines.
