This card was made using the Gina K. Wreath Builder and images from the Pretty Pink Posh Easter Wreath. The sentiment is from Lawn Fawn’s Celebration Scripty Sentiments and the images were colored with Prismacolor colored pencils.

Eggstra special Easter
I started with a panel of Lawn Fawn’s Ballet Slippers cardstock, cut with their Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables. I stamped the sentiment from Eggstra Special Easter, also by Lawn Fawn, with Versafine Onyx Black ink at the top. I stamped the bunnies and basket from the same set with Jet Black ink and colored them with Copic markers. The egg was cut from vellum with the Outside In Easter Egg Stackables. I glued the basket to the vellum and the vellum to the card, and popped the bunnies up with foam squares.

Éire go deo!
Which means Ireland Forever! It’s a few days early, but I wanted to share this St. Patrick’s Day card. I only used three shades of green instead of forty, but I still like the effect. Stamps are by Lawn Fawn, their Celebration Scripty Sentiments and Simply Celebrate Spring sets, along with their Noble Fir ink. The other two colors are Later Gator and Fake Plant, both by Simon Hurley for Ranger. I also used Ranger’s Super Fine Detail Embossing Powder in gold and Simon Says Stamp Gold Matte cardstock. The panels were cut with Lawn Fawn Large Stitched Rectangle Stackables, and the top panel was popped up on Altenew foam tape.

Spring love
This happy bunny couple is ready for Easter on this sweet Lawn Fawn card. All the solid cardstock is Lawn Fawn, and I also used their patterned papers from the Spiffy Speckles, Perfectly Plaid Remix, and Flower Market collections. Build-A-Bunny and Build-A-Bunny Accessories dies were used to cut out the bunnies and their clothing and accessories. The bunnies and background were assembled with liquid glue and then the panel was popped up on foam tape.

Spring has sprung!
I created this sweet spring card using Newton’s Nook’s Postage Layout die, Frames and Flags die, and Easter Postage Sampler stamps and dies. The images were colored with Prismacolor pencils and mounted on foam squares, and the yellow basket weave paper is from the Newton’s Nook Happy Easter pack. It certainly seems springlike here in Texas, with temperatures in the 80s!
A huge thank you to the Inky Paws Challenge team, who chose this card to be featured in the current challenge! It means a lot to me!

Quadrant eggs
This stamp and die set is by Pretty Pink Posh and called, appropriately enough, Easter Eggs. The sentiment is also from that set. The eggs were colored with Copic markers and mounted on thin foam squares.

Silhouette eggs
These simple silhouette eggs are from the Newton’s Nook Easter Egg Builder set. The egg paper is also Newton’s Nook, from their Happy Easter paper pack. The solids are from my stash. I was inspired by Samantha Mann to use the white designs over the solid eggs, although her finished card is very different.
I promised an announcement about this blog. I set a goal for myself at the beginning of February to post content every day, and I only missed two days. However, it’s taken a toll on me. So I’m going to an every three days posting schedule, and may include other crafts besides cards. I hope you’ll continue to follow along, even though it will be less frequently. I really appreciate all my visitors and commenters.

Simple shaker
Not the most complex card I’ve ever done, and there’s a couple of ink smears, but I love those sequins so much I couldn’t resist using them again. The Happy Easter stamp is by Waffle Flower, and I colored it in with a Crayola colored pencil. The little eggs are from Newton’s Easter Basket by Newton’s Nook and all the ink is LDRS Creative La La Lavender. The sequins are Brutus Monroe’s Spring Mix. I’ll have an announcement tomorrow about the future of this blog, so stay tuned!

Repetition is the key
This card has a simple design-stamps from Lawn Fawn’s Celebration Scripty Sentiments and Hoppy Easter repeated in Gina K.’s Bubblegum Pink, Peach Bellini, Lemon Drop, Applemint, Sea Glass, and Lovely Lavender inks. The large Happy Easter is by Newton’s Nook and is mounted on a vellum shadow layer. Finally, I added sequins from Stage Lights by Trinity Stamps.

Hoppy days are here again
Hoppy Days Ahead is the name of the Simon Says Stamp set I used for the bunny and flower. I colored them both with Copic markers, although the flower didn’t dry to the shade I wanted. I used Newton’s Nook Oval Frames to cut Lawn Fawn’s Spiffy Speckled paper and inked the edges of the rectangle with their Sugarplum ink. Couldn’t find room for a sentiment, but I think the sweet bunny speaks for himself.
