Easter Bunny and Chick

Happy Monday everyone!! I hope you have a wonderful day!!  Today will be a busy day for me.. busy at work and then Lacrosse tonight. The JV girls don't play until 7:00 pm, so that means out and home and in bed for me.  :)  Tomorrow Michael has a Dr. Appointment, so at least I can work from home.  Have a great day everyone!

Today I wanted to share another Easter card:








This was a unique fold and I really enjoyed it. The card was a Silhouette Cameo cut and I've changed it up a bit. On the front part of the card it has the grass cut. I cut that with green and added the two different easter eggs that I colored with my Copic markers. I thought the grass blended in really well. The second fold has a cutout that says Easter. I've added some darker pink distress ink around the lettering to make it pop a bit. And I've added the patterned paper behind it. On the third fold it is a cut out easter egg. I've added the gorgeous Wee Stamps image to the back fold -- Easter Bunny. I've colored the image with my Copic Markers and done a bit of layering with the image. I've added some matching bling to the back and some small dew drops to the front and middle folds. And that is it! I hope you like it!

Copic Markers Used:
  • Bunny Fur: BV20, BV23

Easter Bunny Card

Good morning everyone!! I have been super busy at work and have not had time to post anything. But! I have gotten a lot done at work, a lot of Lacrosse games to see and we have been going, going, going!

Bailey has had Lacrosse practice every night after school. She has had two games as well. She did really well on her first game.. they ended in a tie. She stopped some penalty shots right at the end to keep the tie! I was so proud of her. Then, her second game wasn't so great. The team they played against was really tough. She got super stressed, her team really couldn't keep the ball. The were dropping the balls, they couldn't catch the passes, she would clear the ball, they would miss or get beat to it and they were shooting at her again. It was a tough game. I've tried to get her to understand to use those games as a good chalk up to learning. You stay calm, you keep your head and you do your best. You keep blocking shots and the more shots they take on you, the more practice and experience you are getting. I know that's hard to do in a game, but she can work at it :)  She was making stupid choices and getting really emotional. She is a good goalie though. She just has to work through those things. So proud of her.. always!

Michael is passing all of his classes right now.. so that is a good thing! And he is working a lot. He is working a little too much. I don't think he is getting enough sleep, but you can't talk to him. He is a 17 year old and that's it... he thinks everything is fine LOL  Oh well!

Kevin has had some Dr. Appointments. He is actually feeling a bit better over the past few days with his stomach issues, so we will see if what they are doing will work! He has to get a colonoscopy at the end of the month and he is REALLY stressing over that!

Me? I have been coloring, crafting and working and coaching Bailey and going to the Varsity and her JV games too. That has been it! Keeping really busy!

Okay... here is the card I'm sharing today.. this another Easter creation:









For this one I've used the new awesome Wee Stamp -- Bonnie. Isn't she just too cute! I've colored her with my Copic Markers. I've colored the background with Copic markers and some spotting with the Colorless Blender. I've popped up the banner, the flowers, leaves and the basket. I've used some Wink of Stella on the flowers and some dimensional paint in the centers of the flowers and the yellow dots around the flowers. I've done a bit of dry embossing, I've used quite a few different patterned paper scraps on this card. The die cut around the image is from My Favorite Things. I've also added those pearls at the bottom and some pastel ribbon to add to the spring/Easter pastel colors. For the inside I've used some patterned papers, ribbon and more pearls to finish it off. The embossing was continued on the inside as well.

Copic Markers Used:
  • Background: G24, G14, B04, B16, BG23, BG13
  • Flowers: R00, R11, R22, R24 
  • Leaves: YG11, YG13, YG17
  • Flower Centers: Y11, Y15
  • Banner & Hat: E40, E41, E42

Easter Card Too

Happy Tuesday everyone! It has been a busy, long week at work and it is only Tuesday!! I have a lot to do and I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed.  But.. It will all work out. I'll get caught up. Tomorrow I am taking Michael to get his toe taken care of and working. I've been in bed early and haven't had a lot of Etsy time the last couple of days. I hope you all are having a great week!

And today I'm going to share another Easter card. This one I did in blue:








This is my Easter Card using Roses Cross from Delicious Doodles. I have used my Copic Markers to color the image. I've added a bit of clear Wink Of Stella and I've popped the roses and leaves. That is a bit of fussy cutting :)  For this card I went back into the scraps box and pulled out all the scraps of blue. I love being able to use scraps up! I've used some flowers and dew drops. I've also used some die cuts, embossing powder, embossing folder. I've done a small bit of stitching. The Happy Easter is stamped. I've inked a bit of paper with black and some with blue. I also used some vines that I cut a piece off of. The inside has a printed quote and I also added some dew drops to it as well.

COPIC MARKERS USED:
  • Wood: E30, E24, E44, E47
  • Cross Edge: Y00, Y11, Y15, YR23, YR24
  • Leaves: YG11, YG13, YG17

Thinking of Easter

With thoughts of my Etsy Shop and trying to build it up, I had the idea that I needed to get busy on some Easter cards. I'm trying to think ahead. I need St. Patty's Day and I need Easter. And if I'm going to put this work into the shop, I better get the correct items in there, right? So, that is what I have started working on. I've made a few Easter cards. I started out with some Religious Easter cards; the true reason for the season. I'm also going to do some cute bunny cards as well. So, I thought I would share my first Easter creation with all of you today:








For my first card I went with this beautiful cross. I have no idea who's it is. I have to go through my images to figure it out. It is a pretty simple cross and I used my Copic Markers to color in the leaves and flowers on the cross. I fussy cut the cross of course and popped it up one level. I dug out all my scraps and this card is all scraps! I went with purple, black and white. The bottoms were all cut with an edge punch. The black paper behind was embossed with an embossing folder. I added some stitching and some ribbon. The Psalm 97:1 was designed and printed and then I added some small dew drops onto them. I also printed the Happy Easter on the inside and added some dew drops there as well as some of the ribbon.

Easter At Delicious Doodles.

Good morning everyone and Happy Friday!! WOOT!!! How exciting!!  And today we are starting a new challenge at Delicious Doodles. Our theme this week is Easter. There are a lot of fun Easter images at the Delicious Doodles Store!!! Here is what I came up with for our Easter theme:










As you can see I decided to make a waterfall card out of these adorable Easter images. I used Easter Chick, Easter Egg, Bear With Easter Egg, Bunny With Egg,  Doggie With Egg, and Kitty With Egg. I paper pieced each egg with some of the scrap papers that I have. All of the images where colored with Copic markers and I popped the paws, wings, beak on the chick. I added the ribbon, the flowers and gems, the eyelet, the Easter sticker. I also added the Happy Easter stamp. All of the papers are scraps of the same papers I've been using. These papers are at least a year old and I'm trying to use them up LOL  Good way to use scraps :)

Tammy's Scrapin Corner Challenge #54

Good morning everyone! Here we are starting a new week. Can you believe it is Monday already? The weekend just flies by.



This is a Eureka image - Draped Cross with Thorns. I thought this was the perfect image for our Easter challenge. I created the sentiment inside and out, you can find it here at Sentimental Susan. I colored the cloth with Prismacolor pencils and the thorns with Copic. I paper pieced some patterned paper (wood grain) for the cross. I used an embossing folder on the white cardstock behind it. The scallops are from a Spellbinder die. I used some white and purple cardstock for this card. I thought the image and the sentiments said it all and I didn't want to make it too complicated or busy.

Challenges:


This was a good weekend. I just can't believe it is already over. We went to church yesterday for a good sermon. We worked out in the garden and got it all ready to plant; we even planted some onion. I can't plant most of the plants yet, because we are still expecting freezing weather this week. It was a beautiful weekend though.

I believe we are expecting some rain today. I'm going to stop at the gym on my way home to swim. Bailey has an orchestra concert tonight so that is where we will be. And that's about it. Just another day at work :)  I hope you all have a wonderful day/evening!!
