Hoppy Easter card

I just love this newest release from Stamping Bella.  I decided to go with darker Easter colors on this card and love how it turned out.  I did laugh as I was coloring the girls bunny suit and thought about Ralphie in A Christmas Story.

You Think I'm Crazy card

This was such a fun and easy card to make.  The chick comes with so many different faces and sentiments that it was very hard to choose.  I couldn't use a mini wobble spring on the hula skirt cart but it worked perfectly for this chick.

May Your Coconuts card

I've never been to Hawaii but my coconuts will remain covered and supported.  I love this hula girl.  I tried to put a mini spring under the skirt but it just wouldn't work right.  It sat too high.

Pretty Annoying card

I really like snarky humor.  I combined two stamps from Riley and Company to make this humorous card.  I think somedays we all might be pretty annoying so why not embrace it?

Sending Cheer Sunflowers card

I Wanna Be Where The People Aren't card

Don't we all feel like this sometimes?  Or maybe it's just escaping the city and being out in nature.  Either way, I love this cat and his anti-social expressions.  To make the sign look like wood, I layered 3 colors randomly.

Hello Spring card

Here in the northern plains, we definitely welcome Spring with open arms.  Sure there's some flooding, lots of puddles and an occasional blizzard that tries to dampen our spirits but it's the promise of green grass, robins and actually opening your windows that keep us going strong.  I had to pick up this cute stamp to celebrate it all.  Welcome first day of Spring!
