Hello Rabbit

Love the inspiration photo for the Cure for the Monday Blues Challenge this week!

 It's so fun and colourful. I absolutely adore Easter!

 I chose to incorporate a pop of neon and a white bunny with a ribbon tied around it's neck. Here is what I came up with:

 Thanks for the challenge! Happy Easter, everyone!

 Supplies: Pink Paislee Hello Sunshine Stamp Set; Poppy Stamps Chocolate Bunny Die; Ink - Autumn Leaves Black Onyx, Hero Arts Neon Pink and Yellow; Ribbon; Cardstock.

Some Bunny Loves You

I have two cards a few different challenges to share today.  The first one is for Papertrey Ink's Make it Monday challenge.  This week's challenge was to make a no-sewed quilt.  Doodlebug's Hello Spring 6x6 pad is perfect for this time of year.  The colours are so cute and the patterns are the best.  I cut 2x2 squares in three different patterns and laid them down in a quilt-like pattern.  Then I used the PTI Quatrefoil plate with their embossing pad for the embossed background.  The Chocolate Bunny die is from Poppy Stamps (I got it from Simon Says) and I used the PTI Scrambled Eggs sentiment to stamp all over him.  This is a good way to add a sentiment if you don't want to take away from the background.  I used Memento Lulu Lavendar and Grape Jelly and backed on a purple card because purple is my fav colour.

The next card is for MFT Wednesday Stamp Club and the Simon Wednesday Challenge.   Here is the sketch:

I love this fun Pure Innocence Bunny Ears stamp.  Not only is she holding an egg, she's got the cutest bunny suit on.  I made her purple and paper pieced the egg using paper from the Doodlebug pad again.  I know this is an MFT sketch, but I couldn't resist trying out my new Lawn Fawn Awesome dies and stamp set.  Love this instagram love and it's so cool to use only part of the image.  I always use the entire image and this time I had to cut off her ears and bottom half.  But it turned out well.  I coloured my instagram image with pastel colours, paper pieced and popped the lens. I stamped my sentiment in Grape Jelly in the bottom corner (from the same PI set) and added some bling.  I love this card.  
  

Easter is my second favorite season after Christmas.  I love the fun activities and cute things associated with spring.  I especially love decorating eggs.  I think it's a good thing we can't buy chocolate bunnies in Japan because I would probably eat too much.  :)

Hoppy Easter Suit

Woohoo, spring is in the air!  I am starting to think about Easter, how about you?

For the March MFT Color Palette Challenge 3, we were asked to used Kraft, Berrylicious, Grapesicle, and Sour Apple (I love MFT colour names).

I am using a retired stamped from MFT, Funny Bunny by Claire Keay.  I super love this kid in the bunny suit.  Kinda makes me want one of my own.  :)  I used a kraft base, a white mat, and a striped purple and white vellum piece from Daiso.  I wanted to put the long vertical diecut on its side (making it horizontal, not vertical...) and put my bunny upright, so a square card works nicely with this.  I added a Fancy Flourish in Sour Apple and a few pearls in coordinating colours from the Doodlebug Spring Pearls assortment.  Thanks for the challenge!  I know it's early...but Hoppy Easter!  (^_~)/

Supplies:

MFT KY - Funny Bunny (retired); MFT Fancy Flourish and Vertical Greetings Die-namics; Cardstock; Daiso Chiyogami (Vellum); Memento Tuxedo Black; Doodlebug Spring Pearls; Copic Markers (BV000, BV00, BV01, G07, R20, Y38).

A Few Cards

Hello, my loves.

This Sunday was spent in my craftspace just having fun and creating.  I stamped images out the weekend before, but never got around to using them.  So when I had time this weekend, I knew I was going to make some cards.

The first card was actually for a Mojo Monday challenge (331).

Unfortunately, I was unable to upload in time to join, but I still completed it on time.  That's okay, I super love the card I made!

I had a dogtag in my die cut bin and thought to use it in the sentiment along with the wood veneer.

 I added a few different embellishments in a cluster and I love how it looks.  I had to add that sparkle cupcake button too.

 Her cupcake cake sparkle too!

She got a rhinestone heart for her hairpiece.

I am a big fan of The Cat's Pajamas and although I only have a couple of them, I love seeing this bunny and his giant ears.

The striped die-cut was a freebie included with an internet order way back when I first started scrapping…but I kept it and finally found the perfect use for it.

 I thought it would be cute to have hearts coming out with the smoke clouds.  :)

I also added sparkle to his nose!

I liked using this saying on the inside.

This is the first time maying a Twilight-inspired card.  It was so much fun to colour.

 I knew Edward's face should have sparkle.

I actually cut Bella's hair and moved the bang portion lower down on her forehead creating a gap where I added light purple beneath to match the paper and glitter on top to match Edward.

I was thinking about which sentiment I should use with one of the greatest love couple ever…I thought this went perfectly.

Thanks for checking my cards out!  What will you make this week?
