Scrapy Land - Challenge 111

Welcome to Scrapy Land Challenge 111, craft friends...

I created two Easter cards using the Impression Obsession Bunny die set for this challenge.

As you can see the cards are somewhat the same, but different. 

On this card I die cut the bunnies from yellow watercolor pattern paper and one of the Sizzix Garden Greens leaves from green watercolor pattern paper.  I arranged them onto a card panel with a light pink egg stenciled background.   A stamped Happy Easter and pink Nuvo drops finished this card.

This card was a lot quicker to make.  I die cut a panel of pattern paper with the one of the Stitched Rectangle dies by Elizabeth Craft  and next die cut my bunnies from the panel.  I mounted the panel onto a black card base.  A stamped Happy Easter and lime green Nuvo drops finished this card.

Thanks for stopping bye.... I hope you'll join us for this challenge.  The winners... one selected randomly and one selected by the Design Team will both receive a $10 gift certificate to Scrapy Land.  Until next time... take care.

Impression Obsession Challenge - Happy Easter

Hello crafty friends,

I'm submitting this card to the Impression Obsession Challenge running until April 2nd.   The theme is Happy Easter.     

This card kind of evolved on it's own.  I started with the stamped egg carrots and added the bunnies around them.  When I was done it looked like a section of an Easter mandala.   

Thanks for stopping bye.  

Impression Obsession Challenge - Sending Hugs

Hello crafty friends,

I've had this card sitting on my desk for days, and still I procrastinated so long that I almost missed entering the Impression Obsession challenge running until Mar 19th.   I used the big and beautiful Verbena Blossom and the sweet Baby Bunny on my card. 

Thanks for stopping bye and wish me luck w/my last minute entry.

Inspiration Squad - apr2018 Challenge 196

Hello crafty friends,

Happy Friday... and welcome to CAS-ual Friday's Challenge #196.  This challenge's inspiration starting point is Spring Fever:

Have you seen the new bunny stamp set called "Somebunny"?  I fell in love on first sight and ordered it right away.

I started this card by stamping lots of bunnies on a sheet of watercolor paper (I do most of my coloring during my lunch hour at work... helps me relax)  With the bunnies colored, I inked a card front with distress inks, sprayed some water on it and added some of the stars from the stamp set.  I used a light color ink, because i wanted them to fade into the background a bit.  Once the background panel was dry, I added three bunnies and the "hoppy birthday" sentiment from the set to the card.  As a finishing touch I added glossy accents to the balloons and tiny fussy balls (I can't think of their name) as tails.

Thank you for stopping bye today.  I look forward to seeing your SPRING theme submissions to this month's challenge. 


I'm entering this card in the following Challenges:

Crafty Gals Corner - Challenge 162, which runs until 4/10

Creative Inspiration - March Challenge, which runs until 4/3
Through the Purple Haze - Challenge 142 (Anything Goes), which runs until 3/30

Scrapy Land Challenge #61

Hello crafty friends,

Scrapy Land's Challenge #61 has a theme of "anything goes using SL brand dies" this time, so stayed with the Easter theme I currently have going.   Here's my card for the Challenge:

I love how the card turned out, but honesty it took time... a few hours to create.  No coloring, just die cutting this time.  The bunnies were all die cut using the Impression Obsession Bunny Set.  For the grass you see peeking out of those egg shape windows, I used the Frantic Stamper Stitched Grassy Hill, which is not currently available, but Scrapy Land has several other grass dies that would work... here are a few of them.

As for the egg shape windows, I used my ScanNcut2 for them.  I created a card front cut file for an A2 size card containing 9 egg windows. If you want the file, I would be glad to send it to you (once I figure out how to save it to my computer).  Here's what the cut file looks like:

Thanks for stopping bye today.  Hope you'll join the fun at the Scrapy Land Challenge.  You have until 3/12 to submit your projects.  The winner, chosen by the design team, will receive a $15 gift certificate to Scrapy Land.
