Happy Spring Bunny Card!

Hello! I honestly cannot believe it's April and Easter is so close... Today I'm sharing a sweet spring card using the Easter Bunnies Digital Stamp Bundle set from Gerda Steiner Designs. It's a really cute bundle that includes lots of images perfect for Spring, Easter and more, because I think bunnies work for any occasion 😉 The image I chose to work with today is a cute bunny painting on an easel. I coloured everything in with Prismacolor, Hobby Colour and Copic Markers, all alcohol based. The Happy Spring is from a Pretty Cute Stamps set in my stash and I'm using some Lawn Fawn spring paper and a Pretty Pink Posh die. The sweet little flower brad is from Emerald Creek Craft Supplies.

Be sure to head over to the Gerda Steiner Designs blog to check out all the details and closeups on this card, and have a very happy, and very crafty week ahead!

Lawn Fawn Mini Valentines!

Hello! I sure hope you have had a wonderful weekend and beginning to your week. It has been super cold here - today was -38 C. A good day to stay in and craft! I thought I'd share these adorable little Valentines Day cards using the sweet Lawn Fawn Let's Toast Stamp and Die set. There are so many cute little sayings that coordinate with the images in the set, perfect for creating these mini cards!!

I layered a piece of BoBunny paper diecut with a scalloped edge Pretty Pink Posh die on a piece of Lawn Fawn watercolour paper and then added the images and coordinating sentiments. Each card measures 3 1/2" square.

I used Copics and Prismacolor Markers, both alcohol based, to colour in all the images. I just love the cute little faces in the set!

I used Distress Oxide inks to add the PB and Jelly stamps to the toast... yum!

Inside, I stamped one of the cute sentiments from the set. Each card is the same inside, but is stamped in a different coordinating colour using Distress Oxides.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Keep warm and cozy friends 💜

Emerald Creek Craft Supplies - April Flower Card and VIDEO!

Hello! I hope you've all had a lovely weekend! We had a couple birthday parties that the girls celebrated with friends, and Sunday we spent doing some spring cleaning. And, of course, some relaxing and crafting 😉 I'm back today to share a card for the Emerald Creek Blog, and this month our 'Dare Challenge' theme is Flowers (check out the link at the bottom to find out how to enter your own Flower project for a chance to WIN!) Spring is a little late coming to Alberta, but crafting with flowers makes me feel better! I chose to work with the gorgeous Vintage Timepiece Stamp, which has some beautiful flowers on it and I went with a rusty orange and patina blue colour scheme that could work for a feminine or a masculine card.

A coating of the Vintage Beeswax Baked Texture Embossing Powder over the embossed timepiece image creates a lovely texture!

The metal embellishments turned out so cool after they were heat embossed! It's fun to try embossing powder on all types of surfaces!

Inside, I added a Pretty Pink Posh sentiment and a stamped flower embellishment using the Emerald Creek Carnations Stamp, repeating the stamp on the envelope to coordinate them.

Here is a link to the Process Video where I show you all the steps I used to create this card, or watch below-

Kitty Bee Designs - Get Well Soon Panda Card!

Hi! I'm popping back in today to share a cute Get Well card using an adorable Kitty Bee Designs Get Well Soon Panda 1 Digital Stamp. How can tiny bandaids be so darn cute?!! I'm still having fun using the awesome Paige Evans Pick Me Up papers and thought they'd be perfect with this cute card, making anyone who's under the weather feel a little bit better. I coloured this panda cutie with coloured pencils and added Glossy Accents to the little bandaid and cast to add some dimension before cutting him out on a YNS Stitched Tag Die. I really love how quick and easy this guy can be coloured up with a little shading.

I used a sentiment from Pretty Cute Stamps on a Spellbinders Tab Die along with a few cute Pretty Pink Posh heart stamps, which I also added Glossy Accents to. I really love the Bamboo Stencil from Little Birdie Crafts - it worked great with some Evergreen Bough Distress Ink to add a bit more colour to the tag. A beautiful Little Birdie Crafts handmade paper flower and some SpiegelMom Scraps sequins finish off this bright and colourful card.

Inside I used another sentiment from Pretty Cute Stamps and stamped three more tiny hearts.

Kitty Bee Designs - Valentine Bunny Pocket Tags!

Hello! I'm over at the Kitty Bee Designs Blog today sharing these adorable little Valentine Pocket Tags using the Super Bun Valentine Digital Stamp . I think my girls will adore finding these on Valentines Day with a few sweet treats tucked into the pockets!

I keep a box of Valentine themed papers and goodies in my craft room and was excited to find these sweet little My Mind's Eye pockets that I thought would be perfect to turn into little tags!

I coloured in these adorable digi bunnies with Prismacolor and Hobby Colour Markers, which are alcohol based, and then cut them out using a Stitched Square Kaisercraft Die. I added a little Tim Holtz chit chat sticker to the middle of the heart and then layered it on a piece of BoBunny paper diecut with a Pretty Pink Posh scalloped die.

I stamped the Pretty Cute Stamps Valentine sentiment on a piece of white cardstock and cut that out with a Waffle Flower Patched Layers Die. A little pink Distress Oxide Ink added a bit of colour around the edge of the sentiment and onto the pretty burlap Little Birdie Crafts flower. (you can check out the unboxing video of these flowers to see more in the collection!)

I added a pretty button and some pink ribbon from a BoBunny Ephemera Pack - I've been loving the assortment of papers, buttons, ribbons and stickers in these packs! Great for crafting on the go too.

I had some ombre coloured doilies that I had picked up at Michaels a while ago and tucked these under the diecuts and the bunny image. I love the look of the layers and the stitched dies!

Lastly, I added some lovely SpiegelMom Scraps sequins for a bit of bling!

Thanks so much for stopping by today! I'd love to know if you make cards for Valentines Day, and who you give them to. Have a fantastic week friends!
