Ericas Craft Room Theme Thursday - Easter Eggs and Grass

This was the sketch and here is what I made with it!






My project today was inspired by Mary at Cardz TV. She made this cute little bunny on one of her videos and I thought my grandkids would love it too so I borrowed her idea and incorporated it into my card. I used Art Philosophy for the egg card shape. The card was cut at 5.50 inches. I also cut the green polka dot paper at the same size for the front of the card. The little fence was cut using Paper Doll Dress Up and I used my Gypsy to resize it to 5 x 1.75 inches. I still had to cut a little off of it after I glued it to my card. The bunny came from the Doodlecharms cartridge and is 2.50 inches. His face is from the Peachy Keen Critter set (PK-754). I added some white pen to accent his nose and the top it with some Glossy Accents to make it shiny. His little hands are just little circles cut at 1/2 inch using Plantin Schoolbook. The flowers were cut at 2 inches from the Art Philosophy cartridge. I also added some yellow Stickles to add some sparkle and color . The last finishing touch was a little twine tied around the egg shaped silhouette shape.

I am also entering this into Erica's challenge for March 20th to March 27th.

Indy Meet Up!

I had a fun time at the Meet Up! Everyone was so nice and Shannon from Provo Craft was awesome!! We had a contest where we had to dress a wooden cut out of the doll from Paper Doll Dress Up. I couldn't come up with anything really original or inspiring so I decided that I would make a leprechaun to use to decorate for St Paddy's Day. There were so many really cute dolls! Some had curly hair and cute Cricut outfits. I was shocked that mine won!! I received some embossing dies for my Cuttlebug. Yay!

We all got the little stuffed Cricut and that is what I really wanted. Everyone won a prize for attending and I won a Tshirt. One lucky lady won an Imagine!

Halloween Treat Bags

My cute grandbabies are dressing as pirates this year. I made toppers for their treat bags to match their costumes (see the Paper Doll Dress Up posts for last year's bags). Can't wait to see them all dressed up!!!
