Birdhouse Welcome


Today's color challenge on SCS really had me stuck for quite a while. Basic Gray, So Saffron, and Bermuda Bay... I wasn't certain which color I wanted to use as the predominant one. My usual strategy in tackling a color challenge is to find a piece of designer paper with one, some, or all of those colors in it and go from there. I found this leaf print from Autumn Meadows so then started thinking along the lines of a Nature card. I have really been into birds and birdhouses lately and fell in love with the digital image from Firecracker Designs By Pamela. I colored it in Copics using today's challenge colors. I hope you like it, it seemed so springy to me.

Chocolate Bunny


For our chocolate bunny teapot inspiration I traced a bunny from the internet and made it into an A2 size card (fold is at tail).
Embossed bunny with Bella Toile in Chocolate Craft ink on Chocolate Chip cardstock. Very easy!

Something Sweet



This is Something Sweet and the sweet treat cup that was filled with Easter M&M's. The paper is Kaleidoscope with Regal Rose, So Saffron, and Whisper White. Saffron brads and button with some linen thread. The inside was stamped with the sentiment from the Something Sweet set and some Verve flowers on the bottom.

SU Flower Punches


5 petal flower and Boho Blossoms flower punches were used to create these what I hope look like daffodils. (Inspired by the Flower Record daffodils from my garden). Done in Whisper White, Summer Sun, and Only Orange. For the clean and simple challenge for Monday on SCS.

Dream A Little


All supplies are by Stampin' Up:
Cottage Wall dp with Whisper White and Old Olive cardstocks, Dream A Little set colored in markers and then cut out and mounted on dimensionals. En Francais in Going Gray ink under hummingbird image. Birthday Wishes sentiment is from wow Flowers and on oval and scallop oval punches. This is a case of today's Featured Stamper Beedubya on SCS. I used the same stamp set but changed the dp, colors, and papers.

A Good Egg



I couldn't resist this chick stamp when we went to the mall last night, it really made me smile! Chick stamp by Lockhart, Just Vine and sentiment (A Good Egg) by SU, cherry blossom stamp by Impress. River Rock, regal Rose, and Whisper White cardstock by SU.
I was inspired by the second picture from the Thymes website.
I also added some yellow Fun Flock to the chick and Crystal Effects to the egg.
