Well, someone has put a curse on our house; all three of us are sick to one degree or another. Ryan hasn't been to school all week, I've called in sick to work two days, the hubs is sick but had to go on a business trip anyway. The doctors keep telling us it's just a cold, but man, this one just won't give up!
But today I managed to get in my craft room for a little bit while Ryan was watching cartoons and I made this:
Easter Bunny is one of my newer acquisitions that hadn't been used yet, so I'd better hurry up before Easter is over for this year. (I got it because I have some Easter pics from last year and this will be perfect when I do those scrapbook pages.) (I also did another SU! order for today, but for once, it had zero stamps on it. All cardstock, mostly 12x12 because as soon as I can sit up for longer than an hour without the room spinning, I will be back to scrapbooking.)
And of course Easter Bunny is perfect for the challenge at the Paper Players:
And I thought the CAS Colours & Sketches challenge this time around is a great collection of Easter colors:
And the Hand Stamped Sentiments sketch is nice and CAS too:
So the only two things that took a bit of time for my card were fussy cutting the rabbit's flower garland and trying different things to change the shape at the top of the Daffodil Delight DSP. I ended up going with one of the Basic Borders dies and it kinda sorta looks like a house so I'm going with it.
Hope Ryan has picked a cartoon that I like because I'm going to go lay on the couch for a while. Cheers, and stay healthy y'all!

Christy, I feel for you. I have been sick this week too- a horrible sinus infection. Hope you are all well soon. Your card is adorable. The bunny and colors say spring and Easter. So glad you could join The Paper Players challenge this week.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry to hear you are still under the weather Christy - this bug has got you good and proper! Your sweet bunny with flower garland is just lovely (I'm now wondering why I didn't think of that for the CC&S colour combo too!!) Rest up and sending you hugs and get well wishes. Thanks for playing with my Easter theme challenge over at The Paper Players this week and at CC&S too!
ReplyDeleteWhat an adorable card made using the current CC&S challenge colours! I love how you've used tone-on-tone patterned paper for the background that your cute bunny is sitting on. Thank you so much for sharing with us at CC&S :)
ReplyDeleteReally cute card and I love the way you used the 2 different sides of the dsp! The bunny is such a cute addition. Thanks for joining the hand stamped sentiments challenge!
