You're Some Bunny Special (TCP Tuesday 202}

Good morning. Today's card is for TCP Tuesday (TCPTUES202) which is a fun supply challenge from our hostess, Julie to use any TCP product to put "grass with class" on a project.

I used one of my favorite The Cat's Pajamas stamps Blow, combining it with one of my new 6x6 pads Simple Stories Fabulous. After coloring up the image with Copics and cutting it out, I added just a bit of Liquid Applique for a fluffy bunny tail. I used one of the journaling pieces as the main panel, attaching the image to it as well as directly stamping the sentiment and the flower portion of the image on it. I cut the felt grass with the Grass border CutUps and added a felt flower cut with the TCP Flower Buttons. Simple, easy and full of spring goodness!

Copics: E50, E51, E53, BG0000, BG10, BG13, R32, R35, R46

All the details for this TCP Tuesday challenge can be found on Alma’s blog. As always, there is potential for fame (Pick of the Litter) and/or fortune (Pick of the Week) and possibly even Swanky Stamper of the Month.

You Bring Me Joy

Today's card is for this week's My Favorite Things Wednesday Stamp Club sketch (MFTWSC63). I converted the sketch to a rectangular shape rather than a square. I also stamped the sentiment directly onto the patterned paper rather than a separate sentiment panel. I colored up the My Favorite Things PLL Where Flowers Bloom with Copics and then cut out. I placed him underneath a tree cut with the My Favorite Things Sheltering Tree and Leaf Trio. There is just a bit of grass underneath the tree which I cut with The Cat's Pajamas Grass Border CutUps. All the paper is from the Simple Stories Baby Steps 6x6 pad.

Happy Birthday {TCP Tuesday 201}

Good morning. Today's card is for TCP Tuesday (TCPTUES201) which is a fun inspiration challenge from our hostess, Jen.

I was inspired  by the chevrons as well as the fresh and clean colors. I used  the turtle images from the And Baby Makes... stamp set. I love that this set can be used for a new baby as well as a child's card. I stamped the turtles image and then stamped another of the small turtles. I colored all three with Copics and then cut them out attaching them to the card panel with dimensional dots. I stamped the sentiment which came from the Birthday Bunny stamp set onto a banner strip which I die cut using the Easy Rosette CutUps. The paper is all from the My Mind's Eye On the Bright Side One pad.

Ima Butterfly (All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge}

Today's card is for the All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge. The theme is "anything goes".

I inked up the one of the new March C.C. Designs release, Ima Butterfly. I used a combo of paper piecing and Copic coloring to get her colored up. I used a slanted and staggered solid colored matting to balance out the busy patterned paper background. Rolled flowers, punched butterflies and a bit of stitching provided the finishing touches.

C.C. Designs March Review

A review of the March C.C. Designs release is going on over at the All That Scraps blog today and I am joining in on the fun with the rest of the design team.

I combined Swiss Pixie Bunny Lucy with the Spring Has Sprung set for an Easter card. After stamping Lucy, I cut her out and then placed her with dimensional dots in the gap of the background image so it looks like she is sitting amongst the flowers and Easter eggs. The paper is all from the October Afternoon Farmhouse pad. The sentiment is from the Spring Logos set also released in March.

Easter Bunny

Today's card is for this week's My Favorite Things Wednesday Stamp Club sketch challenge (MFTWSC62). No pink allowed on this Easter card as it is for a little boy. After coloring the MFT Pure Innocence Warm Fuzzies, I cut the image out and replaced the heart shaped hair clip with a bunny tail pom pom. I used the Die-namics Notched Tag set to create the tag which I attached with brown baker's twine. The grass and eggs were cut with The Cat's Pajamas Grass and Eggs in a Basket CutUps. The paper is primarily some older Jillibean Soup.

It was good to get to my craft table. All my blog postings last week and most of this week were set up in advance due to my husband's shoulder surgery. So it felt like a long time in between projects. It's been a busy week but I think we've both found our groove on how to handle things until we can do more for himself. 

Sweet November Preview Day 2 - Penelope and Zip

Welcome to the final day of February Sweet November previews. Today we are featuring Penelope.  You might remember past versions of the always sweet Penelope; this time she is paired up with her friend Zip. 

I stamped and colored up both images with Copic markers and then fussy cut them out. I created a scene background within a circle cut with Spellbinders Nestabilties and attached Penelope to it. Zip is flying free with dimensional dots underneath the wings. I used another one of my new My Mind's Eye 6x6 pads, On the Bright Side One.
