Inky's Happy Easter!

Good morning everyone!  I have an inspiration post today featuring Easter Bunny Monkey and the Happy Easter Banner from Inky Impressions.  I seem to be on a bit of a CAS kick lately, but it's all good.  I always learn something new with every new card I make :)

I colored these sweet images with me Prismacolor Premiere Pencils, and then layered it with a white dry-embossed card, some flowers and of course a little ribbon...what's card without ribbon right? lol

You can find tons more cute images in digital and rubber form in the Inky Impressions online store, and don't forget about the challenge blog where they hold weekly challenges!

Lucy Loo - Being Lucy with The East Wind

I had some fun and a learning experience with this image called Lucy Loo - Being You from The East Wind :)

Lucy Loo - Being Lucy by The East Wind

The fun part of this project was definitely in the coloring, and so was the learning experience!  I stepped out of my comfort zone and tried her eyes the way Unky might do them, lol.  So maybe they're not quite as good as Unky's but, I really like the overall effect:)

You can purchase this awesome image, as well as so many more on The East Wind Etsy store, a nd you can visit The East Wind website for more inspiration.  Don't forget to find The East Wind on Facebook and on Instagram!

Some Denami fun with Quick Creations

I had waaayy too much fun with this stamp from Denami :)  Noelle asked me to create a clean and simple piece, and well...I made a few lol.

For this piece, I started out making a background paper, using the Flower Bloom Stamp, and then added it to cardstock and stamped the image again on vellum :)

This is a closeup of the details on the small note cards I made using the same stamp :)

These are the small note cards (see, I told you I had too much fun, lol).

And this is the box that I made to hold the set of four small note cards.  It's amazing what you can do with such a sweet and simple stamp :)\

You can find this stamp in Noelle Martin's online shop Quick Creations.  You can also find many more awesome products!  There is a monthly challenge going on over on the Quick Creations blog, and the theme this month is:  create a background using a rubber stamp image!  Don't forget to use something in your creation that can be found in the online store at Quick Creations (and link it up too!)

Check back soon for more fun projects using products from Quick Creations :)

Princess Rose, The Paper Nest Dolls

My inspiration piece this week for The Paper Nest Dolls was a fun project.  Christine and Monica challenged me to follow a sketch for my card.  Yikes!  I've never followed a sketch before!  So, I shopped around online for some that I liked, and I found this one by Sweet Sunday :)

Princess Rose by The Paper Nest Dolls

For this project, I chose the Princess Rose rubber stamp image from the new Fairy Tale Collection :)  I followed the sketch to the letter, lol, which I supposed is not necessarily the point, but it's my first one, so why not, lol.  Apparently, I need some new lights for my light tent, lol, things are looking a little dim :(
