Some Bunny Love and a Bit of News

I recently had the wonderful surprise of becoming one of the design team members for Melissa Jenkins, the artist behind MELJENS Designs! Very exciting news for me, as I'm really having fun with Digi stamps now. You can find the announcement, and list of DT members to visit, on the DT blog: HERE Remember to 'follow' the blog because challenges start on April 1st!

If you haven't seen Melissa's work, just wait until you see how fun and sweet her images are! This adorable bunny couple is one of the freebies from her blog (this cutie was from the Operation Write Home Springbreak Hop). It's called Bunny Love. Too cute, right? She also has Freebie Mondays, so be sure to stop over there and see yesterday's post!

50's Sweetheart

A sweet digi I just had to try out from The Greeting Farm! I started out using some scraps for the green lines and flower, and then realized I needed a larger piece for the background. I'm sure the other ladies did much better than I did using my scraps this weekend. This card actually fit into several challenges, which was really fun.

Crazy 4 Challenges #23: Be My Valentine
Tuesday Morning Sketches #31: Sketch Challenge
C.R.A.F.T. Challenge #36: Valentine's or Love
Stampin' for the Weekend: Valentines Themed
Raise the Bar #4: Hearts
Creative Card Crew #44: Valentine's
Stamp, Scrap & Doodle Saturdays #26: Valentine with a twist...no RED (the darkest color in the card is actually a very deep pink, not red)

What I used:
Stamp: 50's Sweetheart digi from The Greeting Farm
Paper: Bo Bunny, Papertrey Ink, Core'dinations
Ink: Copic Sketch, Shimmerz, Creative Inspirations
Accents: Die cuts with Nestabilities by Spellbinders, MS Punch, Gem

Thanks so much for stopping by!

SPCC33 and A Bit of Scraps

So, what do YOU do with all of those paper scraps? Well, Danni challenged a few of her blogging friends to pull them out and use them this weekend if we had the time. While my DP and background are not scraps, the other pieces are. Of course this really has made little difference in cleaning out my scrap drawer, but because of this I will be checking it more often. Thanks Danni!

I used the color challenge from Scrapmaster's Paradise Color Combo for this project. You can find SPCC33: HERE

What I used:
Stamps: Laundry and Sentiment by Lockhart Stamps (SCACD)
Paper: DP is from Bo Bunny, Scraps from Core'dinations, Papertrey Ink, and DCWV
Ink/Paint: Memento, Copic Sketch, Creative Inspirations
Accents: Dies cuts using Nestabilities by Spellbinders, Silver Dots by Colorbok, Gems by Darice

HSE Cupcake Inspiration Challenge #41

It's getting to be that time where we have to get busy on Valentines, so I took the opportunity to make one for this week's Cupcake Inspiration at Hope Stamps Eternal. I used a stamp that I recently won from Victoria Case that seemed just right for the card, and finally used my heart shaped Nestabilites!

While I really enjoy the color challenges, what makes the Cupcake Inspiration challenges so special is that you really have the opportunity to interpret the colors. It's fun to see how different the colors are in one card to the next, and that they're all some form of the same colors (from light to dark or soft to bright). You can find challenge #41: HERE

What I used:
Stamps: Steal a Kiss by Victoria Case
Paper: DP by Bo Bunny, Solid by Core 'dinations and DCWV, stamped on Papertrey Ink
Inks: Memento, Copic Sketch, Spica Twinkle Pens
Accents: Pink silk ribbon, Heart Charm, Gems by Darice

Thanks so much for stopping by!
