Easter #5

 ...for this year anyway, haha! 
This is a very late post for today. I've been trying to catch up on books for my oldest daughter, so right now I have yet another Easter page for you. This one was all about the pretty DP, and some cute photos. 

Supplies: 

Paper: Petal Pink card stock, Perennial Essence DP
Accessories: Antique Pearls, Perennial Postage Dies

I hope you're getting some crafty time this spring! 

Anniversary!

Happy Monday to you! Today is my parents wedding anniversary, so today I have their anniversary card. You get to see it before they do, because that was one of those "longest weeks of my life" weeks and I didn't get it made in time to mail it off to arrive in time. It's fiiiine...... 

I used the latest Freshly Made Sketch, and the flowers represent the circles. I stamped the flowers on white card stock, cut them out, and popped them up on Dimensionals. Admittedly, the two super close flowers are one cut out, ha... 

Supplies:

Stamps: Detailed Dogwood, To Have and To Hold

Ink: Memento Black, Gorgeous Grape
Stampin' Blends: Dark & Light Highland Heather, Dark & Light Granny Apple Green, Dark Daffodil Delight, Bronze

Paper: Highland Heather & Basic White card stock, Country Woods DP

Accessories: Gorgeous Grape Sheer Ribbon, Dimensionals

But now we're off to another busy week! Hope it's amazing for you too! 

Another Easter

Hello again! I had a jam-packed family weekend celebrating all sorts of things, and now I've got some sickies at home.

I'm trying to catch up on some "major events" in my daughter's life, so today I have an older Easter layout, that actually, I just made. ha. 

All of these supplies are long retired, except maybe the dots...but probably.
As I'm uploading this, I'm realizing I forgot to look for number stamps to add to the title... it's FINE. She really probably won't notice, haha. I cranked out a bunch of pages yesterday, so yeah, a couple details may have been skipped.... Oh well. Done is done! 

Supplies: 

Stamps: Just Perfect Alphabet
Ink: Rich Razzleberry
Paper: Basic White card stock, Cottage Wall DP
Accessories: Transparent Dots
Journaling Font: English Essay

Rain Boots

Happy Friday to you! This week has gone so fast and I feel like there's so little to show for it...! But a lot has happened so maybe... 

Today's card combines the colors and theme (gum boots) of Inspired By... and the theme (spring showers) from The Paper Players and the theme (spring/Easter) for Inspire.Create. I found these cute floral rainboots (actually a two-step stamp) that was an additional gift in the Paper Pumpkin box, I think in March of 2020? And I used the rain drops from Umbrella Days, and a greeting from Special Moments - all long retired! 

Supplies:
Stamps: Umbrella Days, Special Moments, Paper Pumpkin
Ink: Misty Moonlight, Crushed Curry, Balmy Blue, Bubble Bath

Paper: Balmy Blue, Basic White card stock

Accessories: Classic Matte Dots 

Bright and Subtle

Today I have a bright color combo which I think I really toned down, haha!
I love this wreath idea, where I stamp something tiny and colorful and then layer the white floral wreath on top. This time I found a couple very small flowers and a leaf in The long-retired, wood mount Botanicals For You set. I added a few tiny Rhinestones and it's done! 
I used the color combo from TGIF Challenges for this one. 

Supplies:
Stamps: Botanicals For You, Well Said

Ink: Strawberry Slush, Timid tiger, Lemon Lime Twist
Paper: Basic White card stock
Accessories: Rhinestones, Encircled in Nature dies, Glue Dots, Dimensionals

Spring Colors!

Happy Monday to you! I hope you had a peaceful, happy Easter weekend. 
We went to California for college Spring Break, but today begins our elementary school Spring Break. At the time of writing this up, I only have a couple vague ideas to keep us busy and occupied... Guess we'll see how it ends up! ha! 

Today's card is just a bunch of bright, happy, spring colors! I combined the color challenge at SUO Challenges with the sketch from Hand Stamped Sentiments and got this: 

Supplies:
Stamps: Happiness Abounds

Ink: Pretty in Pink

Paper: Lemon Lolly & Basic White card stock, Unbounded Beauty DP

Accessories: White Baker's Twine, 2024-26 In Color Dots, Dimensionals 

Easter 2025, layout #3

Happy Saturday to you!
Today I have the last of last year's Easter layouts for you, ha. This one gets the most photos, ha, and thus a different die cut title. That's how I made her page different! It wasn't planned to have both girls in yellow, only one dress was new. But that's how it worked and honestly, I loved the look. 

Supplies:

Paper: Basic White, Daffodil Delight card stock, Bloom Impressions DP
Accessories: Ice Cream Parlor Buttons, Daffodil Delight Taffeta Ribbon, Mini Alphabet Dies, Glue Dots, Big Shot

Easter 2025, again

Continuing on with Holy Week, and approaching Easter Sunday, today I've got last Easter Sunday for my middle kiddo.
This one uses very similar supplies to yesterday's layout, but I think it has a totally different look.

Supplies:
Paper: Basic White, Daffodil Delight card stocks, Bloom Impressions DP
Accessories:  Button Bouquet, Alphabet a la Mode Dies, Glue Dots, Big Shot

Easter 2025

I remembered I did some Easter scrapping that I haven't shared here! I actually did last year for all three of my kiddos, so that's three days worth of sharing! You're welcome! haha!!

First up- the layout for my oldest! Can you guess his favorite colors? Happy that this long-retired paper was perfect for him. 

Supplies:

Paper: Island Indigo & Basic White card stock, Sycamore Street DP
Accessories: Sycamore Street Buttons, Alphabet a la Mode Dies, Glue Dots, Big Shot

Another St Patrick's Day!

This is like the third time today I've realized it's actually April now, so you just get a March page anyway, ha. It's super quick, but it's in her book, and that is the point that matters.
The colors struck me as spring-y, and also come from her outfit. 

Supplies:
Paper: Moody Mauve, Garden Green card stocks
Accessories: Moody Mauve Textured Ribbon, 2023-25 In Color Dots

Today it is RAINING. It started last night before I even knew- I heard it pounding around 830 and happily told my family. My son informed me it was all wet when he got home at 8 and he assumed we all knew, haha. This has been the driest winter ever (the weatherman doesn't have to tell us that- we know very well, thanks) And we really haven't even had rain in a while. Today is awesome!! 

A Ferris Wheel!

Today I have a happy, fun card, with brand-new supplies! Okay they've been around a little bit, but *I ordered them in February and got them for my birthday, and left town and SO it is still brand new! ha! And, admittedly, time consuming, which is not my favorite. lol. I did wonder when I bought the bundle, ha, but I also kiiinda need it, hahaha. 

For this card, I combined the color combination from Inspire.Create.Challenges and the top row (die cut, ribbon, sentiment) from The Paper Players, once more! I used some long retired ribbon that is a small scrap in my scrap ribbon jar, and a couple retired colors too. Anyway, I know who this is going to and it's all happy! 

Supplies: 

Stamps: Boardwalk Fun

Ink: Sweet Sorbet

Paper: Lemon Lolly, Basic White, Basic Black, Tahitian Tide & Sweet Sorbet card stocks

Accessories: Boardwalk Fun dies

I set out several supplies, hoping to play with some challenges and get some blog posts ready, and the first one done used FOUR challenges! I don't know if I have done that before! 

I used the sketch from Freshly Made Sketches, the colors from As You See It, the diagonal from The Paper Players (circle, flowers, sentiment) and the accessories from Just Add Ink (ribbon, sequins)!
