Do Al(l) Creative - EASTER

Hello Everyone!

It's time once again for a new challenge at Do-Al(l) Creatives. 

This month's theme is:

EASTER

and our sponsor is:

Di's Digi Stamps

offering a $12.00 prize to their shop at the prize.

Today I've used the adorable image called 'Easter Bonnet Bunny'.

I had so much fun coloring and creating this card.

I was actually able to use up some 'scraps' of card stock for

today's design ... YAY!  Love when that happens.

My image was die cut using the Tutti Designs 'Nesting Stitched Rectangles'

and I also used the Tutti Designs 'Tulip Corner' as an accent.

A few pearl drops created using Nuvo crystal drops and

my card is ready for mailing!

 I hope you'll come join in our challenge fun at Do-Al(l) Creatives.

Challenges to share in:
Alphabet Challenge - B for Bunny

Do Al(l) Creative - SPRING

Hello dear friends!

If you recall, I recently shared the exciting news of a new challenge blog which I'm thrilled to be a member of the team, called Do-Al(l) Creatives.    This will be a MONTHLY themed challenge with sponsorship prizes offered.  I do hope you'll come check it out and join in the fun!  

Today is the start of a new challenge at Do-Al(l) Creatives and the theme is:

SPRING

 Our sponsor this month is:

Digital Delights

 Prize offering:

 For today's creation, I've chosen to design with 

a sweet image called Flower Power Daisy.

 Isn't she just adorable!!

To create a 'backdrop' for this adorable image,

I have created a grass panel by simply tearing a strip

of scrap green card stock.  And, I sponged the blue sky using Tim Holtz

Broken China distress ink and a large sponge dauber.

You can't have green grass and a blue sky without 

a tree ... so today I've die cut the Tutti Designs 

Spring Tree from white card stock then colored to my liking.

My coloring was done with a combination of Spectrum Noir Pencils

and Spectrum Noir alcohol markers.  After doing a bit of

fussy cutting with my Fiskars swivel craft knife,

I popped her up using dimensional tape.

Challenges to share in:

Our first challenge theme is EVERYTHING GOES WITH SOMETHING NEW!

(i.e. New Home, New Baby, New Car, New Job ... etc.)

I decided to go with a 'New Home' creation.
I've create the background by sponging the top half of my white card stock panel with blue Tim Holtz 'Broken China' distress ink (sky) and the bottom half with Memento 'Bamboo Shoots' (grass).  Then added in a forest of pines using the Memory Box 'Snowy Pine Landscape #F1900 stamp.

You can't have a new home in the country without a dog & a picket fence!  LOL

And, I love how the door opens on this Memory Box die ... saying "Come on in and Welcome to our new home!"

Again, I'm excited about this new adventure and I hope you'll come check it out and join in the blog hop /challenge fun!
