a Crafty Spring challenge

Miss Vic has challenged the Crafty Secrets DT again! This time the theme is Spring, Easter etc. I went straight to the new Easter Joy set. Isn't it perfect for Easter and Spring? I used my Creative Memories cutters to make the egg shaped cards. I made faux rick rack on the little boy bunny card with my pinking shears and card stock. I stamped the sentiment and cut out the 3 words, joys of Spring and glued them on the card. His little tail is a pom-pom, I dabbed it with glue and dipped it in glitter to give it some sparkle.














Supplies: Stamps - Easter Joy. Paper - Classic Paper Pad, GP white, scrap card stock. Ink - Ranger Distress Black Soot & Vintage Photo, Copics. Acces. - pom-pom, glitter, linen thread, buttons, Martha Stewart Gem Stickers from Wal-Mart, velvet rick rack. Tools - Creative Memories cutters and blade, Tim Holtz blending tool.This is the CM cutters I used. The egg shapes are in the centers of the hearts.

Look at this card I got at a flea market. It's so dainty and pretty! The cutout window has real lace curtains. On the inside of the card is a table with a vase of roses and a book. Gorgeous! There were so many vintage cards there, some were 3-D and cost $35.oo, WOW! Wouldn't it be nice to find some of these for cheap?!

I hope your Monday is a good one, thanks for stopping by!
