Pemberley Layout

Another really paper pack from CTMH is one called Pemberley. It has beautiful blues and browns with a touch of a soft yellow. The color names are Indian Corn Blue, Outdoor Denim, Desert Sand, Creme Brulee. This particular layout comes from the Magic How To Book . The pattern name is Enchantment.
The stickease that corrdinate with this paper pack are the embellishments long with The Just Blooms paper Flowers and the Bouquet Assortment. It uses all 4 x 6 pictures. To finish it off  I added a bit of stitching across the Outdoor Denim CS. Because there is a scallop border sticker above this piece it makes it gives it a double embellishment.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Easter card # 2

This is the card I used the "Adhesive Springs" on. It probably is hard to tell but the middle bunny is the one with the spring attached. So he is sitting up from his brothers and sisters. What is so nice about these springs is that they flatten down flat to the card for putting git in the envelope and mailing. But when the card is removed it will spring into action.
I used the stamp set "My Peeps". I used the border strip that says- Happy Easter to my peeps with Baby Pink ink and stamped it over and over on the base white card. Then I used a Fiskars border punch and Smoothie CS to add a  bit of an accent. The bottom paper is a textured Sweet Leaf CS piece. Then I stamped the eggs and colored them with CTMH colored pencils and a waterbrush. I stamped the bunny with Smoothie ink on Baby Pink CS three times and cut them out. The center one like I said has the spring attached and I added Licorice Opaque Pearls for the eyes and nose. The other two bunnies I used a black marker for their eyes and nose. Before adding that center piece to the card I added the flower embellishment from the Just Blooms Paradise collection and a sweet leaf button from the Spring Button collection to the top left corner of the card.

I hope you enjoy this card. Thanks for stopping by.
I wish all of you a very Happy Easter!!

Easter Card #1

I wanted to share a couple of Easter Cards I have been able to get made amongst all those Bunnies!! LOL I used a stamp set called "My Peeps" for the egg border. To color the eggs I used colored pencils and my waterbrush. The papers are from "Lucy" and Sweet Leaf & Smoothie Card stocks. To embellish I added some Sorbet ribbon and I used a Fiskars Border punch called "Apron Lace".

I have another Easter card I will post tomorrow. In that one I used a new product to me called "adhesive springs". Come back to see how I used them.

Thanks for stopping by. I love comments too.

It started with TWO and then....

What I mean by my title is that Easter has taken over my craft room! I have bunnies multiplying like crazy. I am having so much fun making these little bunnies come to life. I have made a few different styles and sizes.  I used my Cricut, my Gypsy  and the AP CTMH cricut cartridge to make each and every one.
First up I have shown previously but wanted to include them again with all of there companions.

These two bunnies have a basket thy are attached to so you can add a little candy treat. I made a little girl bunny and a little boy bunny. By using ovals and circles along with a body shape and a few strips for whiskers, when all put together you get a CUTE Bunny.

My next group of Bunnies has a Mom and two little children shown here. These bunnies double as a card also. I took a heart and attached another heart at the pointed ends welding the two together with my Gypsy. So they open up and you can have an Easter message inside. They are also attached to a basket you can fill with goodies. Don't they all of there own look even though they are all made using the same pieces?

Oh MY!!! Mom and Dad sure were busy!! LOL Now to explain just why I made so many bunnies. I decided for Easter dinner they would make cute place cards at the table. Because the front piece flips open I was able to stamp Happy Easter and add each persons name that will be at Easter Dinner. Like the one above they are attached to a basket which I will add jelly beans, foil chocolate eggs, Robin Bird eggs etc as a little treat for each person.

Because I was having so much fun making bunnies I added a couple more to the group. This one was made just a bit different adding some teeth, making it with only white card stock and giving it color and character with Hollyhock sponging. I added two Licorice Opaque Gems for her eyes and cut into the face for some whiskers. Again it is attached to a basket so you include some treats. 

My last bunny is a full standing up bunny. I used Desert Sand Card stock, White Daisy CS and Blush for the inner ears. I added some white pen markings to give him a little personality.

I want to give thanks to all the other creative people on the web that I got my inspiration from. It was so much fun to do. I thought I was done but I  need to make a few more for the Easter Dinner table.  Then I will be done.

Thanks for  stopping by.
