Easter Layouts

Finally getting around to working on some Easter pictures. I am really behind.

Used Treasure Box Designs paper piecing files, Make the Cut software for cutting with my Gazelle. Pebbles chalks, colored pencils for detail, Treasure Box Face Stamps, EK Success Lattice Chain border punch, Sizzix scallop pocket tag, Martha Stewart Eyelet Lace punch around the page punch, Spellbinders scallop nestabilities dies, Cuttlebug, EK Success Card Creator Basketweave punch and various cardstocks and papers.

Get Well Cards

I made two Get Well Cards today. This tent card is for a little boy, Dylan, that is sick. The MTC forum posted a challenge to get everyone to make cards to send to him to lift his spirits. You can read about him HERE.

My husband also has a co-worker that has had surgery recently and he ask me to make a card for him. So this is the card.

Both cards were made using a Riley Moose stamp, nestabilities dies, Fiskars embossing plates and Copics of course. Tried to make them "manly or boyish" so Riley the Moose was the perfect choice. Thanks for looking.

CyberCrop Weekend

This has been a busy weekend of crafting. Over at the MTC forum, I participated in their first ever CyberCrop weekend. There were 10 Challenges and 9 Bonus Challenges. You had to do a separate project for each challenge. I was only able to get 7 out of the 10 Challenges completed. Hey but that is more crafting in a weekend than I think I have ever done. LOL!!!

See below for my projects.

Challenge #1 - Color Challenge. Use only the colors Purple and Turquoise (white/black could be used for any journaling).

Challenge #2 - Create a title in MTC with a graphic attached to the words.

Challenge #3 - Create a project using vinyl.

I did not get to Challenges #4 & #5.

Challenge #6 - Paper Piecing. Create a paper piecing piece using MTC.

(note: This is the little lamb from the Strawberry Shortcake series I shared.)

Challenge #7 - Create a project using an animal theme.

Challenge #8 - Use three flowers on your project.
(Made this Get Well Card)

I did not get to Challenge #9.

Challenge #10 - Use metal or embossing.

(I used my cuttlebug and nestability embossing dies

for this birthday card.)

Well, that was my first ever online crop and it was a lot of fun. I am looking forward to participating in many more. Want to join in on some of the fun, join us over at the Make the Cut forum.

A Birthday Card

Here is another birthday card I made for another co-worker, Naaja.

Recipe: Magnolia Tilda stamp, Nestabilities Scalloped Oval and Circle, Cupcake stamp and Kids Quotes stamps. And this one I used Copic Sketch markers instead of coloring pencils.

My First Card

I want to share my first card that I made. I made this birthday card for a co-worker, Roxanne. Unfortunately, I was a few days late getting this to her.

Recipe: Cuttlebug-Happy Birthday embossing folder, Nestabilities-Scalloped Circle, Hanna's Stamps-Riley the Moose. I also used colored pencils to color Riley. And I added the stamped image to the envelope.
