My Kind of Wonderful

Bo Bunny has a card challenge for April up, and it's to use stamps. I wanted to participate so I used my gorgeous new "Prairie Chic" collection, and I used some of my beloved Bo Bunny stamps. I had several sets of their older stamps from a few years ago (remember those that came in the CD cases??). On this card, I used the distressed background stamp set (to create the dots on the bottom), and the flourishes stamp set (for the top left), and I paired them with white gesso. I also added the gesso all around the edges, and added some dimensional adhesive to create lots of layers. I love how it came out!

Cute as a Button

Sharing another card, using an adorable Paper Nest Dolls stamp, colored with Copics, and the gorgeous new "Needle and Thread" line from Kaisercraft. The flowers are by Petaloo.



And the inside (more of the beautiful paper):

You Are The Best

Sharing another sweet little card, using an adorable image from The Paper Nest Dolls. I colored her with Copics, and the paper is from a couple different collections by MME.

Have a Wonderful Day

I made a card to go along with the printer's tray I shared yesterday. Again, I used the gorgeous Kaisercraft "Needle and Thread" collection, and the antique gold flourish is by Flourish With A Bling.

The Joys of Life

I just love this new collection from Kaisercraft, "Needle and Thread". It's so gorgeous and has such rich, vintage colors. I scrapped another pic of my daughter at the park, from March 30th. Here is another one of her, feeding the ducks. I also used a couple elements from some older Kaisercraft collections.

Unforgettable

A big post for today, sharing lots of images of my newest project - a printer's tray I made as a gift for my mom (that's her in the pic...she was so beautiful!). I'm entering it in the Cheery Lynn "Mother's Day" challenge. I used the new Kaisercraft "Needle and Thread" collection. I also used a couple Cheery Lynn Dies: Dancing Doily Lace Border and the Nautical Wheeler Doily.

Park Day

I scrapped a pic of DD at the park from a recent outing (3/30). Doesn't that photo go perfectly with the new "Prairie Chic" line by Bo Bunny? I made this for their sketch challenge this month.

Believe

Hi guys, I made a pretty card, "Believe" for the Cheery Lynn "Pretty in Purple" challenge. I used 3 of their dies:
Nautical Wheeler Doily
French Pastry Doily
Dancing Doily Lace Border.

The paper is from a couple different collections by Prima, as is the flower, and the gorgeous purple peal flourish is by Flourish With a Bling.

@ The Duck Pond

Last Saturday, we spent a gorgeous few hours at the park...the weather was absolutely perfect. I got so many good photos from there, and I wanted to start scrapping them right away :) Here's the first one - Morgan feeding the ducks. The paper is by Ruby-Rock-It (don't you love this line??) - so perfect for the photo! And the pink pearl flourish is by Flourish With A Bling.
