My project is an Easter card that I made for my boyfriend
I like to make him a card for every holiday!

I kept this card fairly simple, focusing on the fun orange heart background.

I used my Cricut and the Give a Hoot cartridge to cut the bunny out.

I adhered chicken stickers that oddly resemble peeps! :)

They are kind of in a line, marching on for Easter, to go along with the title sticker, "Easter Parade".

Anything Goes January Challenge

This month over at Scraptastical Kreations, they are doing an Anything Goes challenge.

The project is your choice, you just have to include one of their patterns in your project!

I have been working on Valentine's projects today, so I browsed through

the Scraptastical Kreations patterns that I had.

I settled on a flower from there "Garden Splendor" collection.

I chose this flower because the petals looked like hearts!

I started out with an ATC card that I covered in pink heart patterned scrapbook paper.

Then I (hand) cut the flower from "Garden Splendor".

I did one layer in hot pink cardstock and the second layer in

scrapbook paper with the sentiment "I love you".

I adhered pink ribbon with pink hearts running vertically on the ATC card.

I then used 3D dots to adhere the flower with dimension.

I then attached a pink rhinestone heart to the center of the card.

I covered the card a different pink heart patterned scrapbook paper.

I adhered pink glitter table horizontally on the card.

I then glued the ATC card onto another piece of the "I love you"

sentiment paper and then glued it onto the card.

I used pink chipboard stickers to decorate the corners.

Starting to Feel the LOVE

I know it is only January, but Valentine's Day will be here before you know it!

The stores have already stocked there shelves full of great goodies for you Valentine!

I did not want to fall behind, so I have also created some yummy cards

for you to give to your Valentine this year.

They are available on my Etsy shop.

They are also here for inspiration to you as well! :)

 

I love how this set of cards turned out!

I used two different stamps that I got from Michael's.

One was two cute little deer kissing and the other is a bear holding a heart.

I stamped them onto vintage tags.

I then colored them with my prismacolor pencils and Crayola markers.

I tied the tags with gold and white twine that I found in the $1 bins at Target! (Great find!)

I then glued them onto pretty paper that I used patterned scissors to cut.

I then covered the white card in red or pink card stock and then adhered my image!

This set of cards, along with many more, are available in my Etsy shop
