So here is the "Mashup" Challenge :
- Make a project using the "colors Green & Yellow".
- Or Make a "3-D project that's a Basket or a Treat Pouch".
- Or "Mash it Up" and create a "Treat Basket/Pouch using the colors Green & Yellow".
I'm running behind this week, so I apologize for getting my post up so late today. :( It has been a week full of allergies, sinus headaches, and some sadness as I've worked on cleaning out Eli's room. All that combined hasn't left me in the mood to stamp at all. I did treat myself to some Starburst Jelly Beans and they helped me get my card made today.
Kim is the hostess this week for a fun Mashup challenge. I am out of room to store any 3-D type items, so I didn't go for the mashup this week. Not having people to give those kind of projects to really makes them pile up pretty fast on my bookshelf! Instead, I used the yellow and green to make a cute Easter card. I got the Chocolate Bunny stamp from my friend Ann ages ago and finally inked him up today. I love him just as much as I thought I would! I can't wait to make more cards with him.
I was inspired by this week's sketch at Create with Connie and Mary and modified it just a bit to work with my bunny. I truly want to work on doing more clean-AND-simple cards but find them so difficult to pull off. I'm hoping great sketches like that will assist me in my goal, so I am sure you will see this one again. :)

This is the sweetest Easter card, Rita! It makes me wish again that I had bought this stamp when it was available.
ReplyDeleteThis is so cute Rita! I love the way you've embossed the dots over the striped dsp, it looks fantastic and I would never have thought to try it. Love the way you've used the colours on your very sweet card.

ReplyDeleteChocolate bunny, YUM! Your embossing is so cool how it looks like the dots are floating on the lines on the paper. I've never thought to emboss patterned paper but now I have to try it.
