Easter Cards - Happy Easter

Good Morning.  Happy Easter.  Well tomorrow is Easter but I wanted to share my Easter Cards for this year and I'll be cooking tomorrow morning so we're a day early.  I worked on these at a crop in January they turned out pretty cute.  I was so excited one of my new frame dies from Crafters Companion looked like tulips all around the decorative edge.  It was perfect for these very spring cards.   The background papers are Doodlebug and the Chocolate Bunnies are Lawn Fawn that I colored with Copics and cut out.  

We are off to work on Carrot Cake (Abbi's Baking) and Whoopi Pies (Emily & Saul are baking) for tomorrows dinner.  This year I am only dessert support.  Otherwise the meal is pretty much the same tomorrow except I've added corn casserole to the mix this year.

Hope everyone has a safe and Happy Easter.  Enjoy your families.

USA Bug - Stars and Stripes Card Series

Hello All! We're on to the 4th card in this series.  I couldn't resist this little guy and Copic Coloring him or her depending on how you see it.  Lately a little bit at a time I've been unmounting my favorite Stampin Up Stamps from the past.  This little guy is from the Love Bug set.  When I was painting the Aileen's Tack it Over & Over on this set I saw it and thought it would be perfect for the 4th of July.  Such cute little sections to color all different shades of Red & Blue leaving a bit of white. You can see the colors used below.

 

The bunting edge was cut with a Border from a Crafter's Companion Create a Card set.  It's done in 2 colors and the layered bug on top.  The entire piece is set on top of a blue piece of cardstock that was embossed with an Anna Griffin folder Striped Stars.  The USA comes from a set of Lifestyle Craft Patriotic Dies.

The entire card makes me a bit Happy, not that it's the best but it turned out the way I saw it in my head which is rare.  Thank you so much for stopping by and checking out this series of cards!  I can't thank you enough!  Hope you have a GREAT WEEKEND!  Hugs!
