Bunnies and a basket

 Hello and welcome crafty friends!
I have a card to share using some adorable bunnies:


I've had this stamp set for a few years, and these images
have only just been inked and colored for the first time.
What was I thinking?! LOL!
Once everything was colored, I gave the eggs and the bow
a bit of sparkle with some Nuvo glitter drops.
To ground the bunnies, I stamped the sentiment onto 
green card stock to give the illusion of grass.


These bunnies are just so cute!!
That's all for now. Thank you for stopping by!
I hope that you have a great day!

This fortnight, we want to see a bunny or more on

I've had this stamp for at least 3 years and I think I've only used
it once, so I felt compelled to break it out again. 😁
I found the perfect paper to use as my background,
just covered in bunnies. (Well, you know what they
say about bunnies! LOL!)

What did one chocolate bunny say to the other?


I hope that you find some time to play along in our bunny challenge at the

SHOPPING OUR STASH #418 - Happy Easter/Happy Spring/Happy Passover


Hello and welcome crafty friends!
It's time for the new challenge at SHOPPING OUR STASH!
We do realize that both Passover already started and Easter has already ended,
 but who couldn't use a little Springtime inspiration these days?
Here's my offering:


and the inside:


My inspiration came from this card. (Thank you Jean!)
I loved the two bunnies facing away and the use of the tiny pom poms.
That particular image was stamped twice then fussy cut so I 
could layer the smaller bunny on top in a different color.
The sentiment was stamped onto a strip of green card stock
to make it seem they were frolicking in the grass.
Since these adorable wee bunnies seemed to multiply like, well, bunnies,
I made four additional cards. Hopefully, my family should have 
received their cards last week. If not, surprise!


Ready to play along? Of course you are! Perhaps you created an Easter or
Passover card, or a Spring-y project and haven't blogged about it yet.
 Here's your chance to link it up at Shopping Our Stash!
We'd love to see it! For more ideas, simply check out what
my teammies have created for your viewing pleasure.
Thanks for visiting.

SHOPPING OUR STASH #389 - Make Your Mark


Hello and welcome back crafty friends!
I'm hosting the new challenge at
and as the title suggests, we'd like you to color anything you want
using markers on your project!

Here's my card:


and the inside:

I think this is one of the first stamps I bought when I began scrapbooking
over 10 years ago. Glad I rediscovered it and colored it up with
my Spectrum Noir markers. This is pretty CAS for me. I just couldn't
leave the card base blank, so I sponged some gray ink through a stencil
to break up all that white space. ☺

Just a reminder, our challenges are running every two weeks now. Plenty
of time to color something using markers for a project and link
up at Shopping Our Stash!  I look forward to seeing what you create!
Thanks for visiting. Have a great day!

SHOPPING OUR STASH #347 - No Ink


Hello and welcome!
Today starts a new challenge at
This week, we challenge you to create something
without using any ink!

I used nothing but die cuts for my card:

I used scraps of DP from a collection that's at least 3 years old.
My sentiment is cut using my Slice die cutter.
The bunny die cuts are admittedly new, but I actually
used them instead of putting them away and forgetting that I have them.
Bonus!

So, now it's your turn to create something without any ink on it. We'd
love to see it, so please link up at Shopping Our Stash
so we can admire it! If you need more ideas, simply visit the blogs
of my teammies to see their ingenious creations without ink!
Thanks for visiting, and I hope you have a great day!

SHOPPING OUR STASH #346 - Here Comes Peter Cottontail


Hello and welcome!
I hope all of you who celebrated St. Patrick's Day have
recovered from all the shenanigans (and drinking)
that holiday brings! LOL!

This week at
we are gearing up for the next big holiday: EASTER!
We'd love to see your Easter creations!
Here's the card I made:


I used a new stitch die for the first time.
(Well, I bought it a couple months ago, and
thought I'd better stop just looking at it
sitting on my desk, and use it!)
I did a lot of cross stitching in my 20's and 30's, so the floss
I've used is probably a good 25+ years old.
I couldn't find a tiny white pom pom in all the stash I have, so
I took a bit of a cotton ball, and rolled it around my hands
to make a tiny tail.
So there you have it, a bunny butt Easter card!
I hope that you find some time this week to join in
our Easter challenge at Shopping Our Stash!
We'd love to see what you come up with.
Thanks for visiting, and I hope that you have a great day!

JUST US GIRLS #335 - Color Week


Hi everyone! I'm your hostess for Color Week at JUST US GIRLS. Since Spring/Easter is just around the corner, (it's really early this year!), I thought some pastel colors were in order. I chose PASTEL PINK, YELLOW, and PURPLE. For my challenge, any light neutrals are welcome, but please only use the three colors picked for the challenge. (That means no blues, oranges, greens...you know who you are! LOL!) Here is the trio (Yep, three!) of cards I've made:






It's the same sentiment on the inside of all cards: 

I started with an 8-1/2" x 11" sheet of white card stock, and went about randomly stamping the bunny then the basket in the 3 challenge colors. Then I die cut 4 panels from it. (I still need to make one more card) I made card bases with card stock in the three colors. I stamped the sentiment onto scraps of the same card stock using similar colored ink, and cut them into a banner. As a last touch, I added sequins in the same challenge colors to all the cards. So simple, and I was able to crank out more than one card in a session of crafting! Yay me! 

I hope you find some time to play along with our color challenge at Just Us Girls! I look forward to seeing what you make with the colors! Just a reminder, if you are picked as Chic of the Week for any of our March challenges, you'll be in the running to be our Guest Designer for the month of May! Good luck and happy crafting!
