Peek a boo chick

Happy Easter everyone!

Today I’m playing along with the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge where the theme is ‘add texture’.

Using a Creative Expressions stencil , I applied texture paste across my card base and added a Memory Box egg and just a peek of the cute Simon says Stamp Peeking Chick die.

The sentiment is also from an older Simon Says Stamp set.

Easter Greetings Chicks

Happy Good Friday!

Well I’m feeling very confused as it has felt like a Saturday to me all day today – nice to have a bonus tomorrow!

Anyway, today I’m playing along with theme challenge at The Paper Players.

As it’s almost Easter, I felt I had to choose either chicks or bunnies for the animal theme – and I ended up using Tim Holtz’s fabulous Colorize Chick die set.

The nest is by Memory Box and I added a Reverse Confetti frame and Pretty Pink Posh sentiment.

Large Happy Easter Egg

Hi there!

It’s been a long time since I played along with a Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge but I was particularly inspired this weekend AND I had time to create so I was able to enter more challenges than usual!

The challenge theme  is Spring and/or Easter – I opted for the latter and made a quick CAS card using a very old Memory Box die, Speckled Egg distress ink and a Spellbinders embossing folder.

I think this would make the perfect Easter card for my dad!

Backyard Floral Egg

Hi there!

Today I’m playing along with the Outside the Box challenge where the theme is floral favourites!

I decided to play with my newest Memory Box die again – the Backyard Floral. I coloured it with distress inks and adhered it to an egg die cut. The embossing folder and sentiment are also by Memory Box.

Die cuts only – tulips

Hi again everyone!

Next up today is my entry for the Poppystamps challenge where the theme is ‘die cuts only’.

I knew I wanted to use my newest Poppystamps die set – the Layered Tulip die set so started by cutting some old inky panels with the dies while I thought about the rest of the card. I wondered if I could use an embossed background but given the theme I played it safe with the leafy frame from the Fern and Daisy Pop up Easel set. I added some foliage from a Memory Box flower set.

Then I spent a little while looking at all my sentiment dies – I was rather surprised that I don’t have many generic sentiments by Poppystamps, but fortunately this Hello worked well!

Backyard floral stems

Hello everyone!

Today I’m playing along in the Freshly Made Sketches challenge .

I ordered a few dies from Bumbleberrys last week as soon as they received the latest release from the Memory Box family. I really loved the new Backyard Floral Stems die and it was so much fun to play with today. I added it to a background that I had embossed with a bargain Spellbinders folder that I picked up in their sale a few weeks ago.

Thanks for stopping by!
