Easter Cards

Well Easter is almost here and I have been busy making my cards.  I got a theme going and just changed the cards up alittle, using different papers and colors.  They all have in common the frame I cut on my Cricut using the Wildcard cartridge.  Each card has a different size frame to fit the pictures I used.  The images are from Gekco Galz "Peeps and Hops".  I love these vintage images. I also used my Martha Stewart edge punch for the scalloped edges.

I hand dyed the crinkle ribbon using glimmer mist and Ritz dye.  I think the soft pastel colors are so Spring and go so good with the cards.  Without further ado here they are in all their glory.

For this card I embossed the back ground paper with my Cuttlebug using the Birds and Swirls folder.  I used gold rub on the frame and the embossing.  The flowers are all from Prima.  In the center of this one I used a pearl.  I am entering this one in the following challenges.

For this card I painted the frame with Martha Stewart Pearl paint in Antique Silk.

Here's one in blue.  For this one I painted the frame with  Folk Art Metallic Ice Blue and added some blue pearls. 

I am still making these cards  I  have quite a few to send out so when I am finished I will post the rest.

Hope you enjoyed them.  I think they are so lovely.

Bye, Bye ,for Now

Fantabulous Cricut Challenge Blog

Thanks everyone for leaving me comments and becoming followers. I have had so many helpful hints. I have also discovered numerous new blogs with lots of creative designs and ideas.
I will try to post a card I made for the FCCB challenge to use a pun.  I'm  trying post this from my phone.
Another thing I need some help  with is grabbing badges or buttons and getting them to my blog.

Here's what I used to make my Easter card
Cricut cuts:  "Celebrate with a Flourish" cartridge, I cut the bunny and all the layers @ 3 1/2".
Papers used:  White cardstock  cut A2 size and the corners rounded  with EK success punch.
DCWV purlpe polka dot and plaid from Nursery pack from  Big Lots.  Solid purple from stash.  Both greens came from Martha Stewart 8x8 stack.
Embellishments:  pink flowers and yellow buttons from stash.  Purple DMC floss #340 on buttons and on card.
Colorbox cats eye chalk used on edges' Wistera on bunny and Ice Jade on grass.
Stickles Eucalyptus to bling up the grass.
Sentiment was written few hand on purple with white gel pen and flag cut free hand.
Stitching around bunny and sentiment was done with a purple gel pen.

So there you have it.  Now I have to get busy on scrapbooking my nieces baby shower.  I made a real cute card for her. I will have to post it so everyone can see it.
Thanks for joining on my blogging adventure!
