Happy Easter

Jim had some glass left from a special order he made.  They may want another window made something like this but a little bigger.  He only had enough glass to make a small one but he wanted to get an idea of how it would look.  This is the end result.

Happy Easter

The Easter bunny came early to our house, March 24. However, we were good and waited until today to put the chocolate bunnies out on the table. Thanks to Ken for our surprise.

Easter Egg

This is one of the Easter cards that we made this week.  Anyone that didn't want it to be for Easter cut a circle instead of an oval so it didn't look like an egg.

An April Easter

Now that it is April,  I start thinking about making Easter cards.  I try to make a selection of religious and non-religious.  I have been thinking about making something like this since my friend Julie bought this embossing folder for me.

Happy Easter

I decided for this post I would show two different Easter projects.  This Celtic cross is my favorite of the crosses Jim has made.  He made it using iridized glass that looks like a rainbow when light hits it.   The second picture is a little tiny bunny rabbit.  I sure hope that rabbit brought some peanut butter cups to our sister who gave up peanut butter for Lent.  If not that bunny is going to be in trouble.

Happy Easter

I made this punch art duck for family Easter cards about two years ago.  I didn't post it at that time because I had a few others I wanted to post that year.  So since I think he is so cute, I decided to use him for my blog Easter card this year.  Those ducks on the designer paper were perfect for this card.  I do remember that I didn't have enough of it but the package also had some with bird eggs all over it and used that too.

If you want some hints on how to make him, leave a comment and I will get back to you.

Happy Easter

My First Use of Blendies

I don't like to color and I am not good at it.  That is probably why I don't like to color.  People have been asking me about the Stampin' Up! Blendabilites and since I am a demo I thought it was time to try them.  I bought Melon Mambo and got the Old Olive free as one of my SAB items.  This card has my first attempt using them.  I didn't take all the time lifting and blending that you are suppose to do.  I just colored like they were a regular marker.  I have to admit they look so much nicer than a regular marker.  I plan to get a few more free ones during SAB.  I like them.
