Bunny Card

I know it has been forever since I posted. I promise to try harder. LOL


Here is the cards the kids will give to teachers for Easter....




I got this idea from Connie at InkspiredTreasures.
I inked the the sky in with ColorBox Cyan. I cut the grass and the pink circles on the cricut. The bunny is a 1 3/4" circle punch. 3/4" circle punch for the tail and large ovals for the feet.

SPRING! Where are you??

I am so ready for winter to be over. Bring on Spring!
Mojo Monday has another great sketch this week.

I used a cute stamp from Clear Dollar Stamps and colored it with copic markers than added some stickles. The papers are all from Stampin' Ups Sunny Day Simply Scrappin' line. I love the colors in this! I cut four circles out and snipped around them and inked them. I added the brad to make a cute flower.



Thanks for looking!

Happy Birthday Big Brother!

Today is my oldest brothers birthday. He recently had open heart surgery so this is a special day.

I used Stampin Up's Natures Silhouette for this card. I stamped the trees and embossed them in dark green then stamped the deer and embossed it in copper. I used the scallop trim border and corner punches from Stampin Up to mat my image.
He has always been a hunter and he is a Bass fisherman so I hope he enjoys this card.
Thanks for looking!

Create with Connie and Julie

Here is a sketch from Create with Connie & Julie.

I just joined their 8 week subscription and love it! I can't wait to try some more of their projects.
Anyway, here is the card I created using their sketch.

I flipped it over and used Stampin' Ups Sweet Pea Designer Series paper. I cut a butterfly from one of the pages to add to the flower that I punched from scrap paper and folded. Then stamped thank you on the inside of the flower.
Here is a quick look at the inside..

The stamps used on the inside are from All That Scraps.

My daughter made another with my coaching and wanted me to post it too. So here is the one she made also....

Thanks for looking!

Valentine Goodie

Here is a great idea that I got from Clear Dollar Stamps blog....




The bear is colored with copics and is from All That Scraps. I cut all the different hearts out with Stampin Ups punchs and nestibilities in the Cuttlebug. This was a lot of fun to make and will be great for the kids teachers. We plan to add some tissue paper and candy.

Build a Bear and sweet treats

Well, I have been wanting to play with the sweet treat cups. This is what I came up with....

I used Stampin' Ups Build a Bear stamp and colored it with copic markers and Stampin' Ups sweet treat cup for the balloon. I made a pool tab in the back in order to get the candy without tearing up the card. This is something I want to work on because I'm not real happy with how it turned out.


I saw the new coconut M&M's and thought that they were all green. Boy was I wrong! There were two green M&M's in the whole package.

New Sketch

Here is a great sketch from Mojo Monday.

This is my take on it...


I used Stampin' Ups new Welcome Neighbor paper pad and Good Neighbors Stamp set from the New Sale-abration flyer. Just make a purchase $50.00 or more and these items can be yours free. There are lots of great new products in the Occasions Mini catalog. These will be available for purchase January 5.
I will have a link to this catalog posted by Tuesday night.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I have been so busy with the holidays and my son's birthday coming up that I haven't had a chance to post. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas and great New Years!
