Easter at Dream Valley

Good morning!  It has been a very busy week here!  My son made the school baseball team, woo hoo!  My husband is coaching his town team, and my daughter has started softball.  Three teams, oh my!  I am very ready for April vacation and some relaxation time!  The best part is that vacation starts just after Easter.  A fun family holiday to start everything off!  

Speaking of Easter.....we are having an Easter challenge over at Dream Valley this week!  What a great segue, huh?!  LOL  Our sponsor for this challenge is:  Mulberry Crafts.  One winner will get a goody bag!

For my card I have used Bugaboo stamp Scene it Easter.  I colored this with copics, the brightest and most colorful that I had!  The paper is from Basic Grey - Sweet Threads, and the sheer ribbon is some I had in my stash.

I would like to add this card to the following challenges:

Catch the Bug - Anything goes

Open minded challenges - animal antics

Doodle Challenge - spring color challenge

Simply Create Too - Easter and/or bunnies

Have a great week and don't forget to play in our challenge at Dream Valley!

Hello and happy Sunday to you all!  We have had a marathon weekend doing yard work, but hopefully most of it is done!  We wanted to get it done before the bugs started and it got too warm to work.  Woo hoo!

I have used Easter Lillie with Tulips:

SSDS Week 33 - Sketch

Hello! Here's my second post as a DT for Stamp, Scrap, and Doodle Saturdays! This week was a sketch challenge. Please pop on over to play with us!

Our sponsor this week is Sunshine Stamps. You should head over to their site and check out their lovely digis. They gave us some Easter images to play with.

The bunny and the chick are from our sponsor Sunshine Stamps. The eggs are from a Stampin' Up set called Soft as a Feather. I used markers and some gel pens to color all the images in. I have to say that all the brown was colored with my copic that I won from a blog candy, and it is spoiling me for all other markers! I may have to go broke getting myself some more!

I also entered this card in the following challenges:

Charisma Cardz - Spring has Sprung

C.R.A.F.T. Challenge - Easter Card

PaperPlay Challenge - Easter

Dare U 2 Digi - Easter

Daring Cardmakers - How Egg-citing

Fussy and Fancy Friday - Easter

Stampin' For the Weekend - Easter

Have a great weekend everyone! We'll catch up again next week!
