Polka Dot Easter Bunny

Still having fun playing with my Bunny Fold it!

Did you get yours yet?

They are a limited addition Fold-it so if you want it, you'd better go get it!

I decided to use patterned paper for this guy today!

He looks a little like he has chicken pox :)

This card is for my son and daughter in law for Easter but I don't think either of them check out my blog so they won't know.

Thanks for stopping by!

Drumroll......for the new Bunny Fold-it!

Yes...your heard me right!

Stephanie is releasing a limited time Bunny Fold-it card die today.

What does "Limited Time" mean?

It means RUN-don't walk to The stamps of Life site to get it in your cart!

When they are gone, they are gone for ever.

Here is a sample that I created for Easter.

I jjust added the basket and eggs from the Bunnyfriend4bear set.

This bunny is perfect for any occasion!

There are a few stamp sets that have sentiments that would pair perfectly with this Fold-it.

Happy Easter

Hello Friends!

I made another card with the new Squirrel4easter set from The Stamps of Life.

I used the square stand up card die for the base.

I colored the squirrel with prisma pencils and blended with blending stumps and gamsol.

This is how it looks when it is folded up and ready to mail.

Make sure you come back tomorrow...there is a new die being released from The Stamps of Life and I can't wait to share with you!

Thanks for stopping by!

Helllo Squirrel

I picked up a few goodies for my new grandbaby for easter and wanted to get it in the mail but I needed a card to go with it.

This is what I came up with using Squirrel4easter and the matching dies.

Here is a look at the inside.

I used Kind Sentiments Step Up Card Die. I colored the image with Prisma pencils and Stephanie's Markers. 

Luckily my grandson is only 10 weeks so he doesn't read my blog and this will be a surprise when it arrives in South Carolina!

I hope you enjoyed a little inspiration and are inspired to make some Easter Cards!

C4C425-National Poultry Day

Happy Saturday!

I am playing with the Crazy4challenges ladies again this week.

Apparently it is National Poultry Day so the challenge is to use a chicken on your card.

I don't have any chicken stamps but I thought a baby chicken would work!

The stamps are from The Stamps of Life.

The set is called Eggs4easter.

I didn't have to color any of the images because this set comes with the stamps to add the patterns and colors.  The bow is the awesome bow die from The Stamps of life.

If you get some time to play today...check out the crazy4challenges blog!

Hello High Hopes Fans!  I am back with a bright fun card featuring an oldie but goody from High Hopes Stamps!

You Crack Me Up!

The paper, washi tape, twine, and flower bling is all from The Stamps of Life.

There are tons of samples of this stamp set and many more in the TSOL Gallery so be sure and stop by there for lots more inspiration.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!

What?  Too soon?

ok.....Happy New Year!

After a little break, the Rubber Cafe' Design Team are back with lots of amazing samples for your inspiration!  In case you missed out on any of last years kits, you'll be excited to know that there are some limited supplies of some of the stamp sets available in the Rubber Cafe' store!

Today I got a jump on my Easter Cards with the Egg-stra Special stamp set.

To create this card I started by folding an 11" x 4 1/4" in half to create an A2 card base.

I cut a piece of patterned paper 4" x 5 1/4" and backed it with a 4 1/8" x 5 3/8"  panel of blue cardstock  and then adhered it to the card base.

Then I adhered a 3 3/4" x 2" panel of patterned paper to a slightly larger yellow panel and then adhered it to the card with Scrap Happy Glue.

I die cut a white circle and a larger green circle with my Spellbinder dies and adhered it to the card with Scrap Happy Glue.

Then I adhered a strip of patterned paper to and orange panel  and then adhered it to the card with Scrap Happy Glue as shown.

I stamped the bunny and basket on a white scrap of cardstock and colored it with colored pencils.

Then I cut out the images.

I adhered the images to the card with 3D foam squares.

I stamped the sentiment on a white banner and back with a pink banner.

Then I adhered it to the card with Scrap Happy Glue.

I tied twine through a button from my stash and then adhered it to the card with Scrap Happy Glue.

That's it!

Easy Peasy!

This is such a super fun looking card and so very easy to make!

I hope you'll give it a try.
