Too Early for Easter?





I hope not, cause Easter Egg Riley is here! He's just in time for this week's Fun Filled Friday Challenge! Kimmy challenged us this week to create with him. When I think of Easter, the colors purple and yellow come to mind for me, so that's what I had to use to color this egg, and build my card from there.



I used my Prismacolor pencils to color my Riley image and used my Nesties to mat him and to create the sentiment tag.






As you can tell, I also used my Martha Stewart Zig Zag Border Punch to decorate my cardstock. I love how the different color of cardstock shows up through the little holes.



Stamps: Hanna Stamps- Eggshell Riley, Sentiment by Great Impressions

Make sure to check back this Sunday as I will be announcing the theme for next week's Fun Filled Friday Challenge.

Don't Forget to check out Kimmy's Riley card--and check her post's from earlier this week. She's posted several cute Riley cards already!

If you make a Riley card, or if you've made one recently, make sure to leave me a link so I can check it out. I'd love to see it!

Thanks for visitng today, TGIF! and have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Stamping!

Happy Fall!

Kimmy's blog inspired me today to get my butt movin'! Sounds like she will be hosting several challenges on her blog. The one she posted today was to create a Fall project.




I've gotten lazy over the last week or so...I usually am coloring images like crazy, so I have them handy when I have time to sit & make a card from start to finish. Well, my colored image stash is empty! However, the image you see here on this card was hidden on my craft table and I just found it last night. Reading Kimmy's Fall challenge post was just what I need to sit down & create this morning. My goal for this afternoon is to get back into my image coloring mode. (I already have over 100 images stamped...now they just need a little color!)



This image was colored with markers several weeks ago when Kimmy and I got together for a craft night. I colored this toward the later end of our session (1am!) and couldn't get my mojo together to create a card with it--until now!


This card doesn't necessarily use your traditional Fall colors, but I like the layout. Kimmy let me have this patterned paper. (Thanks, Kimmy!) Not sure if you can tell, but the ribbon is actually brown felt! Perfect for a warm and cozy Fall-feel!

Happy Monday! (Sigh!)
