Hi!
I can't believe that April is almost over! Well, with that said, it happens to be Easter tomorrow so our Crazy challenge today is to make a Easter card!
I must admit that my card today is actually a reject from a magazine publication I had submitted. This week has been so busy with my kids being out for spring break so I have had absolutely no time to stamp so here is my "Easter" card!! LOLOL!!
The base of this card is Dark Chocolate CS and is 4 1/4" square. The decorative paper is from Pink Paislee's Sweetness Collection. The basket and tulips, from Papertrey Ink's Vintage Picnic set, were stamped on Select White CS using Cocoa Memento ink, colored using my Copics, cut out and mounted using dimensionals. The Grandma sentiment, from PTI's Delightful Dahlia set, was stamped on another pattern of Sweetness DP using Cocoa Memento ink, punched using Martha Stewart's small tag punch and tied on using white floss.
Now, be sure to check out the Crazy girls creations because I KNOW that they actually made Easter cards and they are DARLING!!!

I love that paper. I'm not sure how much more of a paper fanatic I can become! This past week I've been trying to crank out various cards and use up some of my humongous stash. Sometimes I'm more of a collector than a user, LOL.
