CPS sketch

I have a clean & simple Easter card for you this morning. This one was inspireded  by this weeks CPS sketch.

 This is the sketch:

This is my card:

I kept it real simple cause I just LOVE this Jillibean paper!!!! Sentiment is from Inkadinkado, and the {} are from PTI.  The white ribbon (which I also love) is from Michaels & the Rhinestones are from my stash.

We are enjoying a beautiful spring rain today, and only in the low 60's. hope spring is in the air where ever you are!! Thanks for todays visit!!!! 

OCC Think Easter

It is the most beautiful Sunday morning here in Arizona! Went for a bike ride and enjoyed the fresh air & sunshine. Then into the craft room for a quick card. This one is a very quick little Easter card for the OCC Think Easter Challenge. Better get a few of these done as Easter will be here & gone before you know it!!

Here is my funny little card:

The pink paper is Pazzle, the yellow is PTI & the DP is Jillibean-soup, Ribbon is PTI. The staped image is JRS, colored with Copics. The feathers I have had forever & just never used. also used the SU scallop punch. I think that's about it for this one. Hope I get a bit more time  in the craft room today. I have several April birthday  cards to do as well as several Easter cards.  Hey.... let me know if you come across any other fun challenges to help me along!! Have a good one!

Hoppy Easter!

Happy Monday all, hope it was a good weekend! I am so loven' these triangle cards!! I think I made 4 or 5 of them this weekend. So easey...just cut the tip off of a 5X5 card so that it opens on the top left side. I think all the paper I used on this card is from my scrap stash. The cute little bunnies are from Rubbernecker...I picked up a few of their stamps at the stamp convention. I stamped them on heavy watercolor paper. Then I chalked them a tiny bit in pink & a little pink on the edge of the paper. You may recognize that on the purple paper I used my score-it to add a little texture. The flowers are made with Stampin' Up's scallop & flower punches...I just cut into the circles to make them into flowers & then stacked them up! I finished the flower with a tiny pearl. The Happy Easter is a rub-on.

Thanks for stopping by to visit today!!

New Stamps!!!

Don't you just love when you open your mail box and you have stamps in there instead of bills!!!!
Well that is what I got today!! YA HOO!! and it is even better when they come on you day off...so you can play all day :) I made these 2 cards with my new stamps from Clear Artistic stamps..the set is Hop into Spring...& these little bunnies are just too cute!

I know to most of you in the world it is still very much winter.....but it is BEAUTIFUL here today....and I have spring fever!!!
For the first card the papers are from MM & the cute bow trick I learned from my friend & SBS-8 sister marge..just making loops & holding them down with dots...cool huh?

For the second card I was reminded by another SBS-8 sister Su to use my embossing folders!! always forget about them..Thanks Su!!!
I sat the bunny in a field of flowers & added some Liquid applique to him for a little dimension! I do believe the paper for this one is from SU. I just could not resist adding a little stickles to all the flowers. Hope you all like them...they were very quick & easy!!

As always...thanks for visiting!!
