Sweet Sunday.....Happy Easter

Happy Sunday Peeps!!

It is Sweet Sunday Sketch Day 

Here is the sweet sketch Karen has for us this week:

I flipped the sketch.

 I wanted to make another Easter card and I decided to use this fun, but retired, single stamp from Stampin Up called "Ears to You".

The DSP on here is from the Stampin Up Watercolor Wonder pack. I let the paper choice dictate my color scheme. The bunnies are stamped using Pool Party, Calypso Coral and Pistachio Pudding inks.

I stamped the image three times and cut out the bunnies and added them to the white panel with some foam tape.

The base of the card is white and then a layer of daffodil delight and then the DSP. The three strips are paper from the same pack and matted with white. I matted the main image piece with Pool Party.

The sentiment is also from a retired set called Everybunny and I stamped with Crisp Cantaloupe ink.

I used a punch from the Itty Bitty Punch Pack to make my tiny flowers I put three at the top and one at the bottom and added tiny pearls to the centers.

I finished off with pearls in the corners.

I was experimenting a bit with my pics, do you like the BG of these or is it too busy?

Now let's see what the rest of the girls did with this fun little sketch:

SSSC156....Happy Easter

Happy Easter Peeps!!

It is time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.

Here is the SWEET sketch Karen has for us this week, designed by our own Sweet Stamper Lynn :

I LOVE this sketch, it reminds me of a sweet little garden flag. 

I had to, of course, use this adorable little Stampin Up set called "Everybunny" 

The base of the card is confetti cream card stock and then I followed that with some lucky limeade and the DSP is from the Everyday Enchantment pack.

The "banners" are pool party card stock that I embossed with the square lattice EF. I added three little punched flowers to the end of each banner.
I stamped the sweet little bunny with black stazon onto some confetti card stock and colored her with my aqua painter and ink pads. I made my center element rounded at the top by using a circle nestie and just inserting the top.
I used some crochet trim to tie across the card and tie a bow.

I hope you can find some time to play along with us this week, I would love to see what you come up with, create a card or scrapbook page with this sketch and then go to Karen's blog and link up your project for all of us to see.

SSSC155....Easter Bunny

Happy Sunday Peeps!!

It is time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.

Here is the SWEET sketch Karen has for us this week:

I used the sweet Stampin Up set called "Everybunny". I colored the images with my aqua painter and ink pads  .The image is stamped with black stazon onto the main panel and again a few times onto some scrap paper and I cut out the peices I wanted to use.
I added in some old olive for the gras and colored in some baja breeze for the sky. The clouds are made with the cupcake punch.

The base of the card is calypso Coral and the DSP is from the Everyday Enchantment paper pack.

I added the little elements at the base of the main image using old olive and the word window punch. I cut the ends into a "v" shape with my paper snips and then embossed with the square lattice EF. The little flowers are a punch in the Itty Bitty Punch pack and I curled them a bit and added a pearl to the centers. The sentiment comes from the same set.

I hope you can find some time to play along with us this week, I would love to see what you come up with, create a card or scrapbook page with this sketch and then go to Karen's blog and link up your project for all of us to see.

PCS Creative Take~Sweetly Dispensed

Happy Tuesday Peeps!!

Today I am sharing  my creative take on a project offered in a past issue of the Paper Crafters Sampler.

The "Sweetly Dispensed" template was featured in the January 20012 issue Expression of Affection.

This is a really fun template to work with and could be used for any holiday or celebration you like. I chose to make this on for Easter. I used Calypso Coral to print my template onto and then used some DSP from the Everyday Enchantment paper pack.

I used the scallop edgelit along the top and bottom edges.

I think that the stripped  DSP and scallop edge makes my box have the look of a store with an awning. Too cute!

I used the stamp set "Everybunny" for the cute little bunny image and sentiment.

Be sure and check out the Expressions of Affection Issue to get this template!

Thanks for stopping by today and HAPPY STAMPING!!!

Unscripted Sketch Challenge

Good Monday Morning Peeps!!

Today I am sharing a card made with the Unscripted Sketches Challenge.  This is the lovely sketch;

I went with a cute CAS design. I started the card with a base of Pool Party cardstock and then I followed that up with some white and the DSP is from the Domestic Goddess paper pack.

The sweet little bunny is from the Stampin Up "Everybunny" stamp set. I stamped the image twice and colored it with my aqua painter and ink pads. I then cut it out and added it to the main image panel with some dimensionals.  The sentiment is from the same stamp set and is stamped with black stazon.

I added some Pool Party seam binding ribbon across the bottom and tied a bow.

I used one of the punches from the Itty Bitty Punch pack to make the three flowers across the bottom. They are not quite in the same place as the sketch but close. I added some basic pearls to the flower centers and to the top corners.

Well, that is all from me, thanks for stopping by and HAPPY STAMPING!!!

SSSC151.....Happy Easter

Good Morning Peeps!!!

It is Sunday which means it's time for another Sweet Sunday Sketch Challenge.

Here is the SWEET sketch Karen has for us this week:

I know it may seem like I am pushing the holidays here to be doing Easter cards already, but I am loving this set, Stampin Up's Everybunny.
I paired it up again with some of the Everyday Enchantment DSP. The image is stamped with black stazon onto some confetti cream card stock. I then colored it using a water brush and ink pads. I used crumb cake for the bunny, some calypso coral for ears, cheeks and little scarf. The cracked egg is colored lightly with some baja breeze. I used som crystal effects on the egg shell, altho it is not very noticeable.
The little sentiemnt is from the same set I just had to stamp it on top of itself and leave of a bit of it. I used a 1" circle and 1-1/4" circle punches to punch out the sentiment

.
I used a bit of baja breeze pleated ribbon across the top and used some sticky tape to attach it.
The striped piece of DSP is matted with some lucky limeade card stock and then embossed with the square lattice EF. I did space the two strips apart but after the piece was embossed it looked like a solid piece, so I added the "rick-rack".
I punched a small flower with one of the itty bitty punches and added a brad and attached it to the base of the egg. I added some silver brads to the corners to finish it off.

I hope you can find some time to play along with us this week, I would love to see what you come up with, create a card or scrapbook page with this sketch and then go to Karen's blog and link up your project for all of us to see.

SC369....Happy Easter Bunny

Happy Friday Peeps!!

Today I am sharing a card made using the sketch challenge this week on Splitcoaststampers. 

I pulled out a set I got quite awhile back but hadn't used called "Everybunny" It is a seriously cute set from Stampin Up. Every image in this set is adorable, I am sure you will be seeing more from it.

I stamped the bunny image onto some confetti cream card stock and colored her up with my aqua painter and ink pads. I used crumb cake and to match my DSP, calypso coral for her dress.

  

My card base is Crumb Cake card stock and then I followed that with some confetti cream and then the DSP. I embossed this layer with the square lattice EF. The angled strip is more DSP  from the Everyday Enchantment pack that you can get free during SAB with a 50 dollar order, just let me know if you want to place an order and get some of this fab paper!

I added some very vanilla satin ribbon and some basic pearls!

Well, that is all from me today, thanks for stopping by and 

HAPPY STAMPING!!
