Going Grey With Scrap-Creations Challenge: Easter

Happy Tuesday.....I can't believe we are in the end of march already...Wow, did this month fly by, or what. It has been a whole week since I last posted a card, and unfortunately, it's because I have been SUPER busy, busy with kids activities, and snow days, and work. Sometimes I just feel like there isn't enough time in the day for me to get everything done, and I know that all you mums out there know exactly what I am talking about.
So enough about me, let me tell you about this weeks challenge. In this weeks challenge, we want to see your EASTER creations. I know, I know, my card isn't very easter-ish, but it's what I have for this week. I used the sunflower bucket stamp from I Brake For Stamps, and combined it with some DP that I had on hand. Not very Easter, but spring for sure :)
So last weeks FAVORITE embellishment challenge was a great success and the cards were all so beautiful, always so hard to choose, but last weeks TOP 3 are:

Going Grey With Scrap-Creations: Favorite embellishment!

Happy Tuesday!!! Did you fellow east coasters make it through time savings? Since my kids were babies, they have never been able to function with Day light savings. Their sleep is all off, and I must admit, mine is as well. I was completely exhausted all day today and as soon as I finish this post, I am off to bed :)
This week we have a fun and easy challenge for you. This week we want to see your creations using your favorite

embellishment! For my card for this weeks Challenge, I used Cammy in the wind from I Brake For Stamps (if you NEED her...LOL, feel free to save 10% off your entire purchase with my DT discount code:SAVE10KRISTEN, and my favorite embellishment is flowers of course. I used a lot of my favorites on this cards. I used my favorite colors, a favorite image ( I love to color people), favorite paper (Little Yellow Bicycle), and I cut out her hat and made it 3D, which I love to do on my creations......So, what is your favorite embellishment?????
The last "Going Green" challenge was awesome. I loved every single card you all created, but there can only be 3 TOP 3, and they are:

Some Bunny Loves You!

Happy Sunday! I hope you are enjoying your weekend! I am happy to say that I had a great weekend. Friday night my family and I just hung around, Saturday night we had dinner with friends, and today we went to my sons hockey game (and yes he scored..Yay), and then we took the kids to see Oz The Great and Powerful. I wish I could say I liked it more than I did, but I just thought it was ok. My kids definitely liked it more than I did. I thought it was good, but not great. You you go see it, lmk what you thought of it.
Tonight I have a little Easter card to share with you. I just got some new stamps from I Brake For Stamps, and both Bunny Tail End and the Some Bunny Loves You Sentiment are both on sale right now, and you will also get another 10% off your total purchase when you use my DT discount code:SAVE10KRISTEN. I love that the bunny is upside down, I think he is SOOO cute. This card will be heading to my Niece Rowan for Easter. Such a cute image for such a cute girl.
Well, I am trying to adjust to daylight savings, so I am off to bed. Have a great evening :)
