Hoppy Poppy in the Flower Fields

Hello! Today I have such a happy card to share with you using one of my all-time favorite bunny stamps. I am pairing it with some giant flowers made of red rubber to create the giant Flower Fields card.

The flower stamps are unmounted red rubber, so in this video I show you a couple options for using these types of stamps. And I actually figure out a way to make it work with the Misti stamp platform. Watch it below or on YouTube:

I used Copic Markers to color up these images and I will have the colors listed below.

Greens: YG05, YG13, YG17
Yellows: Y00, Y08, Y17
Oranges: YR15, Y35
Purples: B63, BV04, BV01
Grays: C0, C1, C3
Pinks: (ears) R30
Pinks: (flower) RV19, RV17, RV55, RV02, RV52
Blues: B00, B000, B0000
Browns: E79, E57, E35

I’m often asked what supplies I use to make my cards and projects, so I’ve put together a list using affiliate links when possible. If you make a purchase with these links I may receive a small commission. These help me to keep up with blog costs and continue bringing you fun projects. Thank you so much for your support!

Hello!

I hope this card made you smile today. I know this bunny always makes me smile…and a bunny in a giant flower field is especially happy!

Thanks for stopping by!

A Very Happy Easter!

Happy Easter, friends! Today I have a cute Easter card to share featuring more cute bunnies. These are from Heffy Doodle and they are some of my favorites!

Happy Easter!

This time, the bunnies are hiding eggs AND carrots! Don’t they look like they are having fun!?

I colored them up with Copic markers and used the same yellow plaid paper for the background and the die cut sentiment (also from Heffy Doodle).

Every year, I think I can make a bunch of cards using all my favorite bunny stamps. It’s a great thought, but might literally be impossible. I’ll probably keep on trying until I finally accomplish it. Lol.

I hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend. See you next time!

Happy Spring Jelly Bean!

Hello and Happy Spring! Does it feel like spring where you are? Here we’re getting some beautiful blooms in the desert. Spring is coming! I have a fun springy card for you today, with the cutest happy bunny from Paper Smooches.

Loves Carrots, Loves Jelly Beans

Isn’t this bunny the sweetest! He loves carrots, and jelly beans! I used some fun pastel colors with turquoise and I love this color combo.

It leads me to the question: what’s your favorite jelly bean flavor: lemon, lime, or blue raspberry!?

So happy!

The jelly bean in this set is super sweet, and I had a great time building up the pile of jelly beans, with an Easter Egg on top!

I’m entering this into the Pastel color Challenge over at Paper Smooches.

I hope you had a great Easter! Happy Spring!

Mixed Tape, Anyone?

Hello, I have a fun card today using products from the April 2020 Hedgehog Hollow Kit. Ok, it’s time to admit it: do you remember when mixed tapes were a thing? I think I may still even have a mixed tape or two back from the 80s and 90s! Yep, I’m throwing it way back with this one!

This kit is filled with masculine stamps, so I tried to keep the colors on the more masculine side. I stenciled on that background using Distress inks. I used the lightest color blue first, then shifted the stencil and inked on the darker blue.

I only used a handful of Copics for coloring this one…greens and blues and yellows, with some cool grays for the label.

Then I fussy cut the tape and the “rad heart” out. I added the cassette tape with two layers of foam tape. The notes and the heart are adhered straight to the card with liquid adhesive.

A simple card, but so much fun!

So now I’m going to find the mixed cassette tapes I still own and listen to them! I’ll bet the sound quality is terrible…maybe it’s time to let them go? Lol. See you next time with more card inspiration!

Mixed Media Card

Hello! Today I’m up at the Hedgehog Hollow blog to share a fun Mixed Media card how to!

If you are wondering about Gloss sprays, Stickles gel, or the new Embossing Glaze, watch the video below! If you want to learn more about mixed media, stay tuned!

It is so much easier to explain in a video, so watch below or in HD on YouTube:

It’s really relaxing and healing, actually, to make this card. So go ahead and give yourself permission to play!
