Some Bunny Loves Ya xx

Today's card is inspired by the challenges at:


Freshly Made Sketches

and

The Paper Players

I've used three strips of washi tape and a cute glittery bunny sticker from The Range. For embellishments, I've added some shiny pearls in coordinating colours. The greeting was created in Publisher.

Polka Dot Bunny

Needing a quick Easter card to go with an Easter Egg I have to deliver, I came across some polka dot card bases in my stash (Dovecraft - I vaguely remember buying them in Sainsbury's of all places!).

I found a seriously cute digi of a kawaii style bunny by an artist called Titareco on Deviant Art. I've printed it a couple of times to create a decoupage effect and then mounted the image on black paper. The greeting was done in  Zipty Do font.

Finally, I've added a pink pearl for his nose. 

I'm entering this card into the challenges at:

Less is More - polka dots
QKR Stampede Challenge - Easter
Suzy Bee's Bloomin' Challenge #123 - use a pearl
Brown Sugar Challenge #191 - Easter
As You Like It Challenge - bingo board
I chose the line 'pink' 'clean and simple' and 'pearls'.  Pink is probably my fave colour to use on cards - it comes in so many shades. I also love the look of clean and simple cards - I struggle with flowery fancy styles. Finally, in my opinion, a card isn't finished unless there's some sort of flat-backed pearl or gem somewhere - it's my favourite embellishment.


Thanks for popping in - enjoy your Easter weekend!

Easter Chick

Happy Good Friday everyone! Not long now before we can tuck into our Easter Eggs! Another fortnight has passed which means it's time for the next challenge at:

As usual the challenge is 'Anything Goes' which makes it so much easier to join in! This week the challenge is being sponsored by Di's Digis.

There's no sponsor digi this week so I've dug out an old fave - a very old digi from Pink Petticoat and this is what I have made:

I've coloured the image using pro-markers and used co-ordinating patterned papers from Papermania's Easter pack. The sentiment was printed on the computer and I've added a butterfly (Anita's) embellishment with some paper flowers. The ribbon behind the image came from a posh box of chocs!

I'm entering this card into the challenges at:

Cute Card Thursday #418 - to die for 
Crafty Gals Corner #64 - Easter or Spring
Double 'D' Challenges - Easter
Little Red Wagon #334 - Easter/Spring
Words 2 Craft By - Easter/Rebirth

Easter Fun

Hi Folks

It was my turn to choose the theme of the challenge at Totally Papercrafts this week and I chose:

 EASTER

 Have a look over there and join in the fun - there two wonderful sponsors this week and some fabulous inspiration by the design team:

 

 and

 

Now I don't normally make Easter cards so this was a bit of a challenge for me! In a box in the depths of my craft room I had some chipboard shapes with an Easter theme which I used with some 'egg' patterned paper I got from a craft fair (it might be Kanban judging by the thickness of it). The layout is very simple but I love the colourful array of Spring shades...

I've entered this into the challenges at:

Divas By Design - Easter/Spring
Eclectic Ellapu - Easter
Dream Valley  - Easter
Moving Along With The Times - Easter
Cute Card Thursday - Easter

A Host of Golden Daffodils

Back in my craft room after a long break in London for my birthday and the Cup Final - shame about the result but I got some lovely crafty pressies for my birthday!

Today's challenge at Less Is More is the theme of Spring Flowers... with the added challenge of it being One Layer Week!

I used a lovely daffodil digi and sentiment from Daisy Doodles - what flower more represents the arrival of Spring than the daffodil? I've got a few buds showing in my garden which should be in full bloom leading up to Easter.

The image has been coloured with pastel pro markers and that's about it - I love the simplicity of One Layer Week!
