Love You to My Core Paper Smooches Card

Have I mentioned how addicted to the Paper Smooches stamps I am? They are so much fun to work with and so versatile.

Today's card is made using the Falling For You set. I had to have it because of that cute little monster but I quickly became partial to the apple in the set.

I colored the apple with my Copics and embossed the Crumb Cake paper with the large dot embossing folder. I need to start counting the dimensionals I use on each card because I am going through them like crazy.

Love you to My Core!!! :)

Happy Easter!

Three challenges in one weekend!  Here is the last of the challenges I completed this weekend.  This one is from Karen Giron's blog.  I used to make a lot of 6X6 cards because there was so much room for design but since postage has skyrocketed I hardly ever make them anymore.

The rabbit was stamped on Shimmery White Cardstock using Chocolate Chip.  I then used a dauber to "color" in the white space.  That makes him a shimmery chocolate bunny!  I used my scallop punch and stencilled the clouds in the background.  I picked up this quick and easy technique from my monthly demo meeting this week.

I hope everyone has a great week and beautiful weather!

Enjoy the Little Things

Did the Bachelor pick the right girl?  I never watch any of the shows except for the final rose.  That's the only one that matters.

I made this card while watching TV and video chatting with my sister.  There are no special techniques, just a few dimensionals.  The base of the card was made to use on the Easter card I posted yesterday and then decided to use the smaller base.  I love the simple and classic look.

Enjoy!

Chocolate Bunny and Gable Green

This weeks challenge on my demo blog uses the Stampin Up Color "Gable Green".  Now this is probably one of my least favorite colors but I think it turned out really cute. 

I have embossed the bunny in clear embossing powder on Chocolate Chip Cardstock to make him look like a real chocolate bunny (Thanks Kathy) and then I used my scallop scissors and took a "bite" off of his ear (Thanks Keri). I cut a piece of Gable Green cardstock and cut individual blades of grass and went back and cut a few on the diagional.  I also used my daubers and shaded a little Gable Green around the edge of the shimmery cardstock.

I'll be working in my craftroom today as I have an album for hire to complete and plan or doing a little organizing along the way!  It's a beautiful day outside so I hope to sneak out for just a bit!

Enjoy!
