Bright and Happy Card

 

Hope you are having a wonderful day what ever you are doing. I am busy cleaning up the house and cooking up some fun treats for Easter Sunday lunch while sticking with my quest to make MORE handmade cards I did make  a few more.

Here is one that I am quite fond of. I like to use my rubber stamps but because I am a scrapbooker first and foremost - I always have a bunch of embellishments left over from paper kits and love when I can use them for cards. As is the case here.

 

I am linking this card up to the following challenges:

 

a creative need - spring

a creative romance - eggcellent spring

chocolate, coffee cards - spring

craftitude - easter or spring

stampin with the dragon - spring time

qkrstampede - spring celebrations

 

Have a beautiful day.

Bunny Card

Just this morning I was thinking that Easter was this Sunday and that April would be beginning next week and before you know it the end of May will be upon us and my kids will be out of school - already...the end of another school year for my older kids and the end of a first year for my little guy...time sure does fly. a little tangent...sorry.

I have been happily crafting for myself these days and came up with this sweet card that doubles as a gift...

 

I used scraps of paper from fact or fiction by Basic Grey (my new fave) and my new stamp & die from Paper trey ink and some fun prima flowers & a vintage button - I used a piece of a different paper scrap to add to the bottom kind of in place of ribbon - cool trick - oh and those fun shimmery dots up at the top - the orange chevron piece I turned into a pocket so you could add some cash or a gift card to STARBUCKS (my fave)

 

I am digging it and best of all it was a quick 15 min card to whip up best yet I am linking this up to the following challenges this week:

 

crafty boots - flowers

craft it up link party - easter eggstravanganza

abc challenges - easter

cutie pie challenges - easter

365 cards - 20 min or less

creative stamp friends - easter package
