WISHING YOU A BLESSED EASTER

WISHING YOU AND YOURS A BLESSED EASTER DAY

EASTER GIFT TAG

Hello.  Hope your Good Friday went well.  It's cold here again and cloudy.  Not supposed to be very warm and sunny for Easter Sunday either.

I made this tag for the challenge at Teddy Bo Challenge #8.

The challenge was to make a tag.  this one is going on an Easter Gift for my Grandson.

I colored with Copics.  Stamped bunny Bo onto a die cut from Spellbinders.  The heart papers are from DCWV and the little bunnies are punches.  The felt eggs are from Michael's.  I tied curly ribbon to the tag for decoration.

Have a great Easter Weekend.  Don't eat too much chocolate!  Thanks for stopping by today.

Until later..................

EASTER EGG

Hi.  Hope you had a great Thursday.  I spent most of the day today watching a live feed

Bald Eagle Cam in Norfolk, Virginia.  Have been watching it since the female laid eggs and

three Eaglets hatched.  Today, though, they removed the babies from the nest and banded them.

Was so emotional to see these babies lined up on the ground, they don't fly or walk yet, looking so vulnerable, waiting their turn for they knew not what!  All went well, it's not their first time doing this and the parents are multiple time parents in this beautiful botanical gardens.  If you are interested, google Eagle Cam then pick the one in Norfolk, Virginia.  They have a live feed with questions and comments also. People from all over the world are watching this family of Eagles.  No night time viewing.

I made this card for the challenge at Midnight Madness Sketch Challenge (MMSC# 100).

The beautiful Easter Egg stamp is from Northwoods Rubber Stamps.  The papers are from DCWC, Cotton Blooms stack and K&Company florals.  The butterfly is from Michael's.  I used a Spellbinders die cut for the squares.  The bunnies running along the bottom are a border punch from Martha Stewart.  I used Star Dust Stickles along the edge of the image. 

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a great Friday.  Until later..........

PEEP PEEP

Hello.  Would you believe this is my first week not working and I already don't know what day of the week it is!!!

I also still have Easter stamps I bought that I haven't stamped yet!  But that being said, I just had a need to stamp and color a Magnolia's Tilda.  I bought this one last year and didn't get to use it.

I made this card for the Challenge at Magnolia Down Under, #92 which is Easter. 

The little chick is just wondering how Tilda got into that shell!!  And when I colored her yellow and finsihed, I was thinking she kinda looked like a yoke!!

The green die cut is a Marianne Design, got it at my local stamp store.  Colored Tilda with Copics and the egg with Perfect Pearls.  The flowers are pulled from a silk bush.  The felt chick is from Michael's.

The swiss dotted tuille purchased at Walmart on a ribbon roll. Kaiser pearls around the die cut.

I'm also entering this card in the Challenge at Stampin' for the Weekend,#7 which is also Easter.

Have a great Wednesday.  Thanks for stopping by.  Until later..................

BSS-MONDAY IDEA - SPELLBINDER'S MOTHER'S DAY PURSE

Welcome to the Bufalo Stamps and Stuff Monday Idea.

Today's idea comes from the Spellbinder's website.  It's a purse made from

the new grand die cuts for the new Grand Caliber die cut mahcine.

This machine  holds an 81/2 by 11 piece of paper and the dies are

bigger.  You can see the instructions  on how to make this

cute gift holder  purse HERE.

Designer paper is Cosmo Cricket.  The flower is made from gathered crocheted lace, gingham stretch ruffle, and a yellow button. 

Here is a sideways view.

Would make a great little gift card holder made with the smaller Nestibility dies.

Cute little treat boxes for a shower or party too.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Have a great Monday. Until later...............

Teddy Bea Bunny

Hi, happy Friday.  I finished my seasonal work as tax season winds down.  It was good to be with friends again and working two days a week, but with the nice weather finally arriving, everyone is glad to have the pressure of tax season coming to an end.

Rick was off today, and the sun was shinning, so he put the pump in the waterfall for the pond and started it up.  So nice to see it running again and to hear the water trickling sound, so peaceful.

Today's card is for the challenge at Teddy Bo Challenge, which is to use your punches on your card.

Teddy Bea is all dressed up as a bunny and going egg hunting.  She has a basketful of brightly colored eggs.

The papers are from the 6x6 stack called Bunny Love from Best Creations Inc.  I colored her with Copic Markers and sponged the edges with Spun Sugar distress ink.  I punched the lace in the center from a Martha Stewart border punch.  The eggs are punched from glitter paper using a small egg punch.  The tag was in the paper stack.

Hope you have a great Friday and a wonderful weekend.  Supposed to rain both Saturday and Sunday here.

Thanks for stopping by today.  Until later.................

Hi, just a reminder that it's mid-month for the April challenge going on over at the FuzzyWuzzy Challenge.
