MORE Easter!!!

Well I am back to show you 2 more of the Easter cards I created for the grandchildren! The card below is for my 11 year old grandson...didn't want anything to "childish" for him cause he is getting to be a big boy now, but wanted to keep it fun...sooooo...I found this awesome image and sentiment from Doodle Pantry called Jelly Bean Ants...and the digital jelly bean paper comes with it! I think this made a cute card for him...added some diamond stickles to the jelly beans to make it a little festive and came out to be a cute card IMHO.

The next card I have to show is the one for my newest grandson! He is only 3 weeks old! I wanted to use the Easter Chicky image from Fred She Said on this card...Her pre-colored images are just the bomb! Did a little photoshop on the image to add my sentiment. Once I cut it out, I used a punch to edge the sides of the oval shape to give it a little more dimension. Added a blue and yellow bow made from Bakers Luster Twine from Pizzazz Aplenty and added some diamond stickles to the flowers. The background cardstock is embossed with the Cuttlebug Polka Dots folder.

 I have been up since 6 this morn and have all my cards done! I will be back tomorrow to show you the last 2 and then I promise...NO MORE EASTER CARDS! I am just happy that I am back to creating again and now that Easter is almost over, I can move on to some other types of cards. I thank you so much for sharing part of your day with me today...I am blessed to have you all. I will be out to see all of you little later in the day today...got some shopping to finish up and then to mass tonight!

HUGS!

Grandaughter Easter Card

Ohhh gosh I know I am Eastering you to death!! But I have 5 cards to create for my beautiful grandchildren! So today's card is the first of the 5...for my only grandaughter Ava Sophia. She is 2... soon to be 3 and what a doll baby she is! The image I used is "Eggstatic" from Phindys Place...is this the cutest image or what??? The image was colored with copics...added some glitter to the egg and cut the image out with the square nestie. All the cardstock used is from Papertrey...their cardstock is awesome! Used my Martha punch to create the green branches around those awesome flowers. The flowers are from Pizzazz Aplenty as well as the pink pearls on the egg...and take a look at the cording running across the double layer of eyelet punched border...I had a brainstorm...the cording is Dream String from Pizzazz Aplenty...I used three colors...Yummy Yellow, Cotton Candy and Amazing Aquamarine and braided them. Is that beautiful or what??? Can you tell how excited I am about it? The colors of the cording just matched the colors I used on my card so well! I also used some of the cording to tie the tag onto the card too. The tag was cut using a sizzlet die and the sentiment was computer generated by me! I LOVE how this card turned out! Hope you do too! I will be boring you with more Easter cards over the next few days as that is all I am making right now. Well I am off to do some visiting...hope your day was great and thanks for taking the time to stop in and see me!

Fly By Easter Greetings

Hello again! I just wanted to share another one of the cards that I created for my 6 card Easter order...these cards were made for a lady at work...individualized for each of her grandchildren. Now this card was for a 4 year old boy who loves planes. Gosh, I was challenged! How do I make an airplane into an Easter card? My imagination just has not returned to me yet! But I did find this coloring page and decided to try my hand at it. All my coloring was done in Photoshop...except for the shadow around the plane...that was created using BG00000 Copic marker. The sentiment was a stamp. Added some spring colored paper trimmed on the corners with a MS punch and voila...an Easter card! Now most of you may not have been challenged by this type of request but you have to remember...I have been out of commission for a while! OHHH I forgot to mention the "eyes" I glued onto the plane! Maybe not the most appropriate thing to put on a card for a 4 year old but I just couldn't resist! Hope Mom keeps a close eye on him! Well that is all for today, hope to see you back soon. I am making sure that I return the visit to all of you who leave me love! It is greatly appreciated. Have a great day today!

Easter card using Fred She Said!

Hello again! I worked my tail off all weekend to get 6 Easter cards done for an order I had. Two of those cards used an image that I purchased from Fred She Said called "Easter Chicky". This was a pre-colored image so it was fairly easy to go from there! I added some glitter to the image after printing, cut it out with Spellbinders label ten, mounted it on the Spellbinders Beaded Oval. And see the ornate white tips at the top and bottom of the beaded ovals? That was one of the dies in the Spellbinders Parisian accents cut in half and one half placed at the top an bottom. Kind of pretty huh? The paper strip on the side of the card was punched with a MS butterfly punch. The embossing on the base card is an SU embossing folder. Now to get to the BLING! All my bling was purchased from Pizzazz Aplenty....the pink pearls on the image, the strip of flowers on the paper strip and the pink pearls on those flowers....I am loving being able to create again! I am counting down the days until my new Black Cat Lynx arrives! Yes, I ordered a new cutter...I love to create using my MTC program and want to be able to continue to get the updates for the program and getting the new cutter will allow me to do so! Well, enough yaking here...thanks for sticking with me on this long post...have a wonderful wonderful day! Thanks for stopping in!

HUGS!
