Just Inklined To Hop -Meadow Rabbit

Good morning, happy Monday & welcome to this month's

Just Inklined Blog Hop

It's a bit of a sad hop as we have lost our wonderful boss lady

 Jak Heath

who has moved on to pastures new & we wish her the very best of luck 

for the future & her new ventures! 

We'll miss you Jak!

Our host this time is our lovely & very talented new DT boss lady,

Tammy & the theme this time is Spring!

If you're already hopping, you'll have come from Gaynor's blog,

if not, pop back to Tammy & start from there!

Here's my card

The image I have used is Meadow Rabbit,

I thought it was just perfect for a little Easter card!

If you're in a hurry to hop on, your next stop is our brand new teamie

If you want to know a little more about my card, read on!

As you can see, I made a little scalloped circle Easel Card

I used a Grand Nestie die to cut out the card base.

The CS is Dottie Card from Anne Marie Designs

I coloured the image using my usual mix of flexmarkers

& promarkes, then inked with Antique Linen & Old Paper

Distress Inks whilst still in the die.

I did this to the card base too!

I added the sentiment just under the image by opening a

text box in word. The font I have used is called Bunny. 

You can download it here for free!

For the easel stop, I added a chunky button which was threaded 

with button twine tied in a bow.

Here's a little side view so you can see the fold.

Don't forget Nicole is your next stop on the hop!

Easter Egg-tastic

Good Morning all!

I hope you're looking forward to a relaxing crafty Sunday!

I have to go out later but I plan on getting a bit inky beforehand!

It's once again time for a fab new challenge at 

The Crafty Pad!

This week for Challenge #164

The theme is It's Egg-tastic

Let's see your Easter themed cards, they must include eggs, chickens,

 ducks or anything that makes, creates or comes from an egg!

Here's my little card!

I've used the New Release Image,

Easter Chicks In Brolly available in the shop from today!

It's just sooo very cute don't you think!

I used a scalloped square card blank.

The Design Papers are from Southfield Stationers!

I was given a bundle to lay with last year & still had these little babies left!

They're so good, I could hardly bring myself to use them!

The layout was my own & the sentiment was done on the computer using

Cutie Pop font, you can find it free here

I added some little buttons & a double ribbon bow!

The image has been coloured up with Promarkers.

I used all the bright cheery colours of spring!

I like to decorate the inside of my cards as I find it helps with the balance!

Don't forget it's Team A's turn to impress you this week!

Today is the beginning of a new challenge over at
The Crafty Pad!

Here is my DT card!

 Challenge #118 this week is  "Use Circles!"

We want to see circles on your crafty project whatever it may be!
One circle or many circles, it's up to you!

We are kindly sponsored this week by

The crafty Pad Designs

our very own Debbie, The Lovely Boss, who is offering three digis of the winners choice!

Letraset!
Who have put up a prize of a set of 5 Grey Promarkers!

As you can see I have made a little round easel card using my scalloped circle nesties to cut out the layers & surrounded it with a circle of little speckled chocolate eggs.

The image I have used this week is Bunny #1

 from Debbie over at The Crafty Pad Designs.

I've coloured him with Promarkers to make him look like a little Chocolate Bunny!
Well, it is Easter!

The papers are from my stash. The blue one is from DoCrafts & I've had it for ever!
The circles paper that I've used for the base card is from the Cardmaking downloads,

 Some Bunny Backing Papers Set!
I've also used some lightweight pink cardstock which I cut with inverted scallop circle nesties.

The sentiment was created on my PC & cut out with a scalloped circle nestie too!

I used round gems & roses which are as near circles as you can get in the flower variety!

As you can see I did my own shopping for the eggs this week! lol

Thank you for stopping by!

 I hope that you have time to join  in our "Circles" challenge this week over at The Crafty Pad.

 This week we are sponsored by the lovely Joanna Sheen

This week Debbie, the lovely boss, has asked the DT to use one of the Bunny images from 

The Crafty Pad Designs 

I opted to use Bunny 2 to embellish my little baskets.

These are so easy to make, just one sheet of paper for each, with a little strip cut off for the handle, a few simple folds & hey presto!

I printed my papers onto both sides of some double-sided matt photopaper.

The digi papers I have used are from the Green Easter set by Sammy Murphy,available from Scrapbookingmad

I've had this download for absolutely ages but they are still available.

I did a little bit of colouring on the bunnies with my Promarkers.

Next, I cut out the images with various nesties!

The baskets are different sizes & all sit neatly stacked inside each other.

The largest is made from an A4 sheet & the smallest an A5 sheet.

I filled them with a variety of sweets.

My idea was to fill them with mini chocolate eggs, chocolate bunnies & Easter chicks but this is what happens when you ask your other half to do your shopping  for you!

Yep, it's as described but as he's a fan of the jelly sweet variety this is what he brought home! Lol!

Still I don't think the recipients will complain!

The only other embellishments I added are some paper flowers, papermania I think, with a brad for the centre of each then attached with some pinflair glue gel.

The little peeper chicks were left over from some Easter Bonnet creations I did earlier!

Thank you for stopping by!

(You may have seen a sneak preview of this post, Mr Blogger was being naughty & not listening to the fact that I wanted to schedule it!)
