Everybunny Easter

Easter is early this year and we have so many darling stamps for this beautiful occassion.  I must admit that this set is probably my favorite stamp set so far.   The main idea when you buy a stamp set is 'how many ways' can you use this set.  With this set the possibilities are endless.  Look for more projects made with  this set.

More of Black Magic Technique

Again, I heat embossed using white craft ink and then colored with watercolor pencils.  Speaking of heat, the weather is beautiful here right now.  I guess it's that way over most of the eastern coast, but in South Carolina, our ornamental trees and flowers are blooming and look quite beautiful.  A lot like the colors in this card.

Just for you

Blushing Bride

What a perfect name for this color, Blushing Bride.  I will be so sad to see this color go after the next in-colors come out with the new catty in June.  I wonder, do they still have June brides?  If so, this is great card for either a shower or wedding.

Vintage St Pat's

Although I am not Irish, I am thankful that my husband is.  I love having an Irish name.  The Irish are such wonderful people.  One of the best vacations we have ever taken was our trip to Ireland, as my husband called it, visiting the old sod.  The country is so beautiful and the people so warm and friendly.  I hope to be posting more cards celebrating the Irish.
