Enjoy!

Happy last day of March!  I can't believe it's a day away from April already!  Time flies!  At our Stamping Away event in February we each brought a gift to exchange.  This was mine.

I used gold polka dotted paper from Hobby Lobby & black and kraft chevron paper from Target. 

I die cut both sizes of the Embossed Dots Tags dies and stamped the sentiment from the Bunny Hugger stamp set.  I love the Fresh Cut Flowers stamp set & Fresh Cut Flowers die set and so I die cut and stamped several of the images & added them to the tag.  Quick & easy way to decorate up a gift tag!

Spring Birthday

Hey everyone!  Even though it snowed here yesterday, we were outside later in the afternoon without coats and having an Easter egg hunt!  Crazy!  But it sure puts me in the Spring mood and Spring means flowers.  I don't have a green thumb but I really appreciate what everyone else is able to do with their green thumbs!

This was a fun card to put together and I used quite a few Frantic Stamper dies in the end.  The main die is a recently released die called Wooden Potting Bench.  The pots & leaves are also from that set.

I die cut the Watering Can out of silver paper and then distressed it with a sanding block to make it more realistic.  I used the small lilac flowers & leaves from the Mix N Match Lilac die set to put in the watering can.  The butterfly is from the Petite Butterflies die set.  I watercolored all of the images with Zig Real Brush Pens (except for the bench & watering can).  

The sentiment panel was diecut from vellum using the Double Fishtail Labels die set.  I embossed the sentiment from the Celebration stamp set.  The background was embossed with the Double Diamond Card Panel die (and I will share a video on this soon!).

Thanks for visiting my blog today!  

He is Risen!

How I loved waking up to snow this morning.  Not that I love snow, because I don't.  But it was such a wonderful illustration to how Jesus's death & then resurrection was the power to cleanse my sins and make them white as snow.  The unblemished lamb took my sins upon Himself.  What a true and wonderful blessing!

Thank you Jesus for your gift to me and to all mankind!

Happy Easter everyone!

Peeking Bunny

We are getting ready to head out to an Easter Egg hunt and I thought that this next card would be a fun one to share.

I started by die cutting my kraft cardstock with the Woodgrain Card Panel being careful to leave all of the pieces in so that it would look like a tree trunk.  I then cut a circle from that and placed woodgrain cardstock behind it.  I used the adorable Bunny Butt die from Frantic Stamper to put the bunny together.

I cut the tail out of white felt.  Don't ya think bunnies need a fuzzy tail! :)  The little flowers are from the die set that doesn't get enough attention because it is adorable called Singing in the Rain.



The border at the bottom was created with a few of the Nested Egg dies & the Block Easter die.

When you open the card you see the other side of the bunny peeking through the hole.  I used the Bunny Butt die again and used the feet for the ears.  For the face I used one of the dies from the Large Marshmallow Bunny dies.  I added the flowers again from the Singing in the Rain set.  The sentiment is from Accessory Words #3 die set which has lots of cute die word options!



Here you can see the front & back side to side.

I'm entering this card in the If You Give a Crafter a Cookie Challenge to use bunnies.  I'm also entering this into the Card Concept Challenge #51.  I'm going to go with Clean & Layered as the style I used.
