Easter bunny

   Getting really ahead - here is a card for Easter next year!
   The image Easter bunny honey from Sassy Studio was coloured using Promarkers. As it was to be for an Easter card I cut it out using a Tattered Lace oval die since this was the nearest thing I had to an egg shaped die and matted it onto pearlescent card. I shaped the top part of a cream rectangular card to mirror the top of the oval to form the base of my card and matted paper printed using the CD ROM from volume one of the House Mouse project books, having first wrapped ribbon round the lower part of the paper. I outlined the paper using flexible peel off strips. the sentiment was cut from pearlescent card using a Tattered Lace die. Finally I added a bow to the ribbon strip.

Good luck

   The designer paper I used here is from a Tattered Lace magazine and it was matted and layered onto yellow core'dinations cardstock and white card. I made the quarter arcs of the rainbow by cutting out white card using Tattered lace half circle dies and then colouring each arc using a Promarker pen. At the foot of the rainbow I created a sentiment using Tattered Lace dies and a gold peel off.
   The image is Clover from Sassy Studio. I coloured her using Promarkers and then after cutting her out I dusted the edges using distress ink before matting it onto yellow core'dinations cardstock. I added a die cut clover in the lower corner.

Love on the beach

   I love this image from Sassy Studio Designs called Valentine's Honey. I coloured her using Promarkers and then cut the image out using an essential pin dot circle die from Tattered Lace. The sky was coloured using a Spectrum Noir pen and the sand is Flower Soft. I then used two strand of embroidery thread for the running stitch around the edge of the circle after which I matted it onto core'dinations cardstock which had been cut out using a pearl die from Tattered Lace.
   I used paper from Papermania for the background of the card matting it onto white card and then outlining it with silver candy strips. From blue core'dinations cardstock I used the Tattered Lace parasol die to cut a sun umbrella and this I matted onto sand coloured core'dinations cardstock before shaping it slightly and attaching it to the card. I then attached the image design using foam pads. Lastly I cut letters using Tattered Lace dies and glued these round the edge of the design to form a sentiment.

Snow queen

   This week our challenge at Crafting From the Heart is being sponsored by

and as always our theme is anything goes.

   I have used their digi image Snow Queen Portrait in my card.

   I matted and layered blue silver patterned paper onto blue pearlescent paper and white card. I coloured the image using Promarkers and cut it out using a Tattered Lace oval die, matting it onto blue pearlescent paper before attaching it to the card. I added colour to three flowers and attached these along with a bow to the base of the oval using glue gel. Finally I added a Happy birthday peel off to the top of the oval.
