MORE EASTER CARDS

Well my order from Custom Crops FINALLY arrived yesterday aprox. 1 month from when I placed the order.  Unfortunately it is too late to make any cards with the Easter cart as all my cards have to be mailed and it's too late now.  I bought the Mother's Day cart as well so I guess I can get going on that one.  I made this card for my grandma using Peachy Keen PK-261 Crunchin' Carrot Bunny stamp.  The patterned paper is from K&Company Brenda Walton Small Wonders 12x12 stack and the plain paper is from Colormates.  I used my Copics to color the bunny and the Fiskars paper crimper.  Boy is it hard to get that paper to go through that crimper straight.  I could not get a 2" piece to go through so I had to do a 6" piece and then cut it.  The flowers and buttons are from a little set I bought at Walmart.

This is a blantant copy of a card that I saved from the internet a couple of years ago before I started my blog so unfortunately I have no name to give credit too.  I just thought is was so cute so I made one for my sister and one for my parents for Easter.  I used the Cricut Doodlecharms cart for the eggs and the Happy Easter sentiment is computer generated.  Well I have a lot to get accomplished today......Have a great day and HAPPY EASTER everyone!

HAPPY EASTER

I was in the mood to play around with my Copic markers yesterday and one of the new bunny stamps (PK-258) I bought from Peachy Keen Stamps.  I was starting to regret buying the markers the last time I tried to color with them but this time it was better......thank god because they're not cheap!!  This is the first time I have used a Peachy Keen Stamp and I must say that I love the way the image stamps out!  For this card I followed the layout from their last challenge http://peachykeenstampschallenge.blogspot.com/  
I find if I stick to the lighter colors I do ok.  As soon as I use darker colors it`s not good.  I have also been testing different cardstocks and my favorite so far is Simply Smooth.  This image is actually colored on Neenah cardstock which is my second favorite.

Here are the markers I used:

Well I am going to try and get another card done up since I have another Peachy Keen Image I colored yesterday.  Unfortunately I only have one Happy Easter Stamp!  Do you believe that I went to Michael`s and they did not even have any Easter Stamps at all!!  We are so lacking here in Barrie, Ontario, what`s a girl to do.  I get tired of ordering everything online (and almost everything I order is from the States) and you have to wait for it to clear customs....................sigh
