Purple Easter Girl card (Saturated Canary image)

Hi crafty friends,

Happy Easter for this weekend everyone! This card's dedicated to all my lovely followers.

I coloured up a beautiful girl from Saturated Canary, sadly it's no longer available but if you like Krista's images you can find some at Make it Crafty.

I dotted white Nuvo drops onto one set of background dots then while it was still wet I added purple glitter. Once they were completely dry I added more white Nuvo drops to another set of the background dots but left the white. I forgot to sweep off the extra glitter before taking this photo, oops lol!

Easter Bunny slider card (Bugaboo image)

Hi crafty friends,

This is my first attempt at a slider card. I was inspired after watching many Youtube videos where they create these gorgeous little scenes with little critters being able to move across the card. I used a Bugaboo bunny for this card, excuse the colouring on his head, the photo makes it look a lot worse than it is lol. The scenery dies are from Lawn Fawn.

A little dog celebrates Easter card (Pink Gem Designs image)

Hi crafty friends,

I have a few cards to post today, I hope you enjoy seeing what I've created for Easter and numerous other occasions.

I'm not usually one for clean and simple cards, I absolutely love other crafters' CAS cards but I have trouble as I always want to add more hehe.

I coloured up a gorgeous pup from Pink Gem Designs. I did some masking for this card and then blended some distress oxide inks for the background and inked up the chipboard easter eggs with the same inks. I've made a card with this image before so I always like to add them below to show how different they can be on different cards.







I am entering this card into the following challenges:

A Gem of a Challenge -  Easter time (Pink Gem Designs image)
Copic Marker Norge - moodboard - inspired by the eggs 
C.R.A.F.T. -  spring/Easter

Easter girl with Easter Egg (Little Miss Muffet image)

Hi crafty friends,

Here's a sweet little Little Miss Muffet image that I added to Polkadoodles background cloud and polka dot papers. They were all PNG images which means you can add the black & white girly image onto the coloured background papers and print them out. It looks strange when you print it but once you colour up the image I think it looks great together and I'll be sure to do this more in the future. I also added the sentiment before printing too. The plaid paper is from Lawn Fawn.

Easter fun card (Polkadoodles image)

Hi crafty friends,

My daughter just turned 18 yesterday so although I have many cards to share I haven't had a chance to post any of them yet! Over the next week you may just be seeing a few Easter and girly cards from me :)

Here's my 2nd GDT card for Polkadoodles, aren't their images just adorable? I printed the image in a light shade of grey to give it a softer look, click HERE to go directly to this sweet bunny girl. The polka dot and cloud papers are part of a Polkadoodles set too, click HERE to go to this particular digi paper collection, they do have many other beautiful digital paper packs too. I used a gorgeous Trent's Fence from Flourish with a Bling.

I've used this lovely image before so I've added the cards below, I think it's always nice to see different way of using the same image.

If you'd like a chance to win some of their images/papers head over to the Polkadoodles challenge blog.
