Some Bunny Loves You

Today I'm playing at Festive Friday where this time they have a theme board for Easter. You're to select three items from the list to quality. I selected the Bunny, Eggs, and Flowers from the list.
I always arrange images on a piece of clear plastic the size of my card base. This allows me to arrange the different elements before I commit and adhere them in place. I can pick up the entire arrangement and layer it over different backgrounds to get a preview of the finished design too!
I created a garden scene using Tulips on a Distress Ink background. They make the perfect place to hide the Build An Egg decorated eggs for the hunt!
I tucked a few Bunny Friends around the eggs and added a sweet sentiment from the new Easter Greetings stamp set! The finishing touch is always a sprinkle of something sparkly! Colorful jewels always hit the spot!
I hope I made you smile! Have a great day!

Waffle Flower April Release and GIVEAWAY!

The wait is over! The latest Waffle Flower release is officially available in the store! To celebrate we're having lots of giveaways on Instagram!
We're calling this release #BlocksofFunWFC because it has lots of products that coordinate with what you might already have. There's several new postage collage stamp and stencil sets like this one called Postage Collage Tropical Sunset Stamp Set. It's got lots of sweet little stamps that you can arrange to make little scenes in blocks.
I created that fun wavy background by cutting sticky notes to create masks. It was really simple to cut the sticky part of the note, ink it and then cover it with the opposite side of the sticky.
I used Distress Ink for the background and Versafine Onyx Black for crisp ,clean, dark, solid impressions on the stamps.
I added a Sealed Sentiment along the center border and you can call this one done! I love the tropical vibes and bright colors!

Now for the part you've been waiting for.. the Giveaways!

Waffle Flower April Release Sneak Peek Day 3

It's the 3rd and final day of sneak peeks of the new April Waffle Flower Release! All the products will be available in the store TOMORROW when we'll be celebrating with giveaways on Instagram! We're calling this release Blocks of Fun because it's got lots of items that work well with supplies that you might already have.
My card today features the new Dried Flowers die set. This is a set of four stem florals that are so pretty! They cut like a silhouette - meaning that there are no detail pieces. To add the colors to the design I cut the dies once from green, and once from a color, snipped off the colored bits I wanted to add and then glued them to the green stems.

I kept this card clean and classic arranging the florals on an Inside/Outside Scallop Elongated Oval from a previous release.

If you look close you'll see I added some glossy candy dots to the flower centers to add a little more shine and interest.
The sentiment is from the new Simply Said stamp set. I cut it with a simple strip die - I always keep the subsentiments die handy because it cuts lots of strips in different lengths.
Want to see more? Just head on over to Instagram and search #BlocksOfFunWFC And please do stop by tomorrow when I'll tell you how you can enter to win a gift certificate to the store.
