Easter Bunny
A while back, my cousin gave me a lot of her rubber stamps she no longer needed. It felt like Christmas morning to me, to open that bag full of neat, older stamps! One of them is this cute l'il Easter Bunny by PSX (G-2672). Love his face, so sweet. I colored him with soft shades of Copic markers then die-cut with Spellbinders Labels Thirteen. The striped blue patterned paper and Ivy background stamp (in yellow on yellow) are both from Stampin' Up!.

Noel Robin
Hi all! Today I am sharing a Christmas card using a few stamp sets from Topflight Stamps. One of my fave sets is Visible Image - Christmas Robin. It has images of birds, holly leaves and berries, a branch and sentiments. Very versatile! For my card, I started with a manila tag from the office supply store and stamped the large robin with Versafine Onyx Black ink. Overtop the robin I stamped Darkroom Door Sheet Music to cover most of the tag, with Versafine Clair Fallen Leaves ink. I went back to the Visible Image Robin set and stamped on a separate piece of cardstock the holly leaves and berries, colored and fussy-cut them. They were added to the bottom corner near the bird's feet. At the top of the tag, I tied a twine bow and then added a teensy little tag, which was stamped with "noel". This is from AALL & Create - Define Christmas stamp set. I inked up just that one word to add to the cute little tag. That is one way to stretch your stamps - ink up just a portion of a sentiment.

Christmas Angel
Hello friends,
I'm sharing a Christmas card I made this past holiday season, in preparation for next Christmas. The angel and little December calendar are both from The Graphics Fairy. I subscribe to their weekly email newsletter, and usually find some neat things for free. These items are from that stash.
The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink "Christmas Blessings" on a PTI "Tiny Tag" die cut. The poinsettia is made of paper, and I've had it in my drawer for several years.
Hope you have a wonderful day!
Wish Big Little Fawn
Hello friends!
Since I woke up my blog (ha ha) recently, I've been looking at the drafts I had saved quite a while ago. Here's another!
I have one fairly simple card to share today. Made it quite a while back and just now getting around to sharing it.
I added markings on the fawn with a white pen.

The chipboard frame is covered in white glitter but it sure was hard to capture in a photo.
Thanks again for taking a peek at my card!
Hope your day is blessed!
Easy Pastel New Home Cards
A friend had given me a bunch of cardmaking goodies she didn't want anymore. Among the items were these bright, fun papers and some matching die cuts. I assembled them into two new home cards, and added a sentiment to each. The sentiment is from Papertrey Ink "Love Lives Here."
Thanks for looking at my cards today!
Have a blessed day!

Pink & Green for a birthday and a baby
Just popping in with a couple of pink and green cards to share today, one for a birthday and one for a baby. Both were simple to put together, using some favorite tried-and-true items I like. Martha Stewart Hydrangea Punch / Stampin' Up! Itty Bitty Accents flower punch; stamped sentiments; patterned paper; trim of some sort. It's like a magic formula for me. 😄
God bless you!
sentiment - The Greetery "Sentiment Suite: Birthday"; hydrangea punch - Martha Stewart; flower punch - Stampin' Up! "Itty Bitty Accents"
Baby sentiment - Papertrey Ink "Tiny Tags"; Congratulations sentiment - Hero Arts "Everyday Sayings"; pink crochet flower - Stampin' Up!
Proverbs 10:29
The strength of the simple is the way of the Lord, and it is fear to those who work evil.
