Somebunny Loves You

Howdy y'all! 

Mary Ellen here from Creative Time With ME! I have an adorable bordering on elegant Easter card to share with you!

1. I began creating this card by bringing out some white cardstock that had adhesive sheet on the back
2. Then I brought out my Martha Stewart bunny punch
3. After punching out about 10+ bunnies I stacked them onto each other
4. Then I stamped the sentiment onto the card front
5. Going back to the paper bunnies. I brought out my T-square ruler to help me make sure that my bunny was straight
6. Next I glued the tear shaped Dew Drops onto the card front to create a heart shape
7. I then brought out a pen to help create the illusion that the Dew Drops were carrots
8. Finally I put the second bunny onto the card front
9. And to finish things off I attached the card front to the base

Stamps: Colorado Craft Company Bunnies & Robin

Paper: CTMH White Daisy

A Whole WATT

Howdy y'all!

Today over at the Make My Monday challenge blog. We have a NEW challenge which is to do create a Clean and Simple card.

Close to My Heart had a smaller light bulb stamp than Spellbinders. But it also had this cute sentiment. So I took the sentiment and combined it with the Spellbinders stamp. Then I brought out my alcohol markers and did a bit of coloring. Finally to finish off this piece I doodled the glow from the light bulb.

Today is the 3rd day I am participating in The Daily Marker 30 Day Challenge! I have found it to be great motivation to work on my coloring. Have you had a chance to play along?


For this card, I started out by stamping the bird. I stamped him on both the card base and a Post-It. Then I took the Post-It and turned it into a paper mask by fussy cutting the bird out. I put the mask over the stamped image. And then I built the background on top of it. When I removed the paper mask it looks like the bird is in the foreground. I used alcohol markers for coloring him.

To create this card. I used my Stamp Perfect stamping platform, to stamp the IO Elegant Feathers stamp. Once the background was to my liking. I then stamped the sentiment onto some cardstock. And then punched a hole in it using my Crop-a-dile. After that I attached a small eyelet and then ran my black bakers twine through it. When that was done I used some foam tape to pop the tag up. And once that was done, I realized that the tag felt like it was missing something. So I brought out my Sharpie marker and drew lines.

Today's card uses the Impression Obsession stamp My Person. I also used the ink smooshing technique to create the heart. And as for the heart in the word PERSON, I colored that in using Arteza's Real Brush Pen. I also, drew the arrows in pencil and then went over them with a Sharpie and a Uniball Signo pen.
