Well I had a wee bit of help from my son with this week’s card!  He’s an origami master and I saw him making bows (just randomly, like any 17 year old boy does) and thought – wow, I’ll have one of them!!  So I gave hime some Taylored Expressions polka dot paper (in green ofcourse) and voila – a beautiful folded bow!  The card didn’t need much more than that!!  Cute or what?!

I’m really starting to think about Christmas now – as soon as the schools go back my mind just naturally starts getting festive!  With this in mind I was immediately drawn to the Deck The Halls stamp set from Taylored Expressions.  I love this set – it has some really fun Christmas critters!  I stamped the penguin then masked him off and sponged some Tumbled Glass Distress Ink behind him.  He was coloured with Copics and and had a few blobs of Glossy Accents added to finish off.  This is a VERY CAS card for me – not sure if it’s missing something actually!  Maybe I need to add some sequins?!

Isn’t that Pinterest mood board so happy?  It just makes me smile every time I look at it! I’ve been itching to use my new MFT Some Bunny stamps since they arrived on my desk a couple of weeks ago and I thought this would be the perfect occasion.  I wanted to create a little “egg-hunt” scene and just love that particular bunny from the set – she really looks like she’s up to no good, lol!!  I used various colours of Bazzill card stock and gathered together some dies to make my scene.  To create the awning across the top I cut a strip of white card stock and a strip of pink then die cut them with a scallop border die.  I then simply chopped the pink strip up and added bands onto the white strip – I love it!  I scored it along the top and folded it a little to make it pop up.  To add a little detail to the easter eggs I used a chicken wire stencil to add an embossed design – like the foil on a real egg.
