Paper Smooches SPARKS Challenge-happy spring!

Hello!  Today I am sharing a card I made with my first ever Paper Smooches stamp set! I know, I know...what took me so long, right?  Well...I have been trying to show some restraint in my stamp spending, but NOT buying any PS stamps has been super crazy hard! But...I was lucky enough to win the Spring Fling set on Kryssi Ng's blog on their last hop.  I think I (or my wallet) am in big trouble! These stamps are so easy to love and create with.
I was inspired by the colors in the inspiration photo below.  I used some My Mind's Eye Beloved designer paper to piece the tulip and butterfly, and also for the scalloped panel.  I added some of my new Flax baker's twine from The Twinery and voila'!

Thank you so much for stopping by!

The Stamps Of Life-Bunny4Easter release!

Hello!  Today I have a card for you, using the new club set from The Stamps Of Life.  This set is called Bunny4Easter.  I am so in love with that adorable bunny image.  The great part is that you can put several different sentiments inside the sign he is holding.  You can check out this set HERE.  The eggs are stamped with the set Eggs4Easter, which is still available for purchase.
I had a lot of people ask if they could copy the image I provided the last release to use as digi files and the answer is NO! From now on, I will just direct you to the website to see the thumbnail just so there isn't any confusion. ;)
Even if you are not a club member, you can still purchase this cutie set! Remember...shipping is always $1 a set in the US!

We are covered in ice here! Boys are home from school (again)! My crafting time has taken a serious hit with all of these snow/ice days! LOL!
What's the weather like where you live?

Happy Spring!

Can you believe that we will be turning our clocks forward soon?  I can't wait!  We have had some gorgeous weather here, and are enjoying the outside play time at my house!  I hope you aren't getting sick of this new ippity set, but I LOVE it!  If you love it too, you can order it from me HERE.

This card is for three different challenges.  The first challenge is for the SCS color challenge to use melon mambo, celery, and bashful blue.  The second challenge is for the Teapot Tuesday challenge.  The third challenge is this week's {ippity} challenge ( IHHC14), to use dry embossing on your card.

All stamps are from the Sweet Thoughts of Spring set.  I colored my clouds with Copics and my bunny with Prisma pencils.  Added some celery twill for my bunny to "stand" on.  I popped the bunny and the center cloud with dimensionals.

Thanks for stopping by!
