Easter Goodies part 3

Hello everyone!
I hope you had a great Easter with your family and friends! I had a pretty low key Easter since my mom was still in the hospital- so I spent the day finishing up my Easter projects. My mom did come out of the hospital for a little while, but she wasn't feeling up to going out so she just came home and lied down. Anyway, we're all hoping that she can come home by May.

Okay- enough about that, onto the projects

I made 2 more Easter baskets for my co-worker's daughters. They are so funny and adorable. One daughter likes purple and one likes pink so I got them bunnies in their favorite colors and then alternated their basket colors.
For the pink colored one, I used my scraps- whoo hoo, pile is S-L-O-W-L-Y going down. For the purple basket, I used scraps too and I dry embossed the outer panels on this basket. To make the handles sturdier, I used a strip of CS and then added a punched border to it. I hope they like their gifts.




I then made 11 more of these covered notepads. I used 2 bunny digital images. I bought the girl and boy dressed in the outfits from chi chi memories and the bunny w/ the lollipop is from 2 cute rubber stamps and it was a free digi- they have really cute stamps so you should check out their Etsy store. I chose the base CS based on my friends' favorite colors and then I chose coordinating DSP. I then used punches to make the binding strips and then blinged the heck out of the DSP to finish it up. My friends really liked their gifts so that makes me very happy.





Anyway, it's Monday night and I'm watching Dancing With the Stars- I don't even know why, I really want to see Nicole Scherzinger from the Pussycat Dolls dance, but I also have to endure watching Kate Gosselin whine and moan and trod her way thru her dance. If you've seen my facebook posts then you know that I can't stand Kate Gosselin just because of her attitude. Oh well, off of my soapbox now!

I have 5 cards to make now, 4 for Administrative Professional Day (we're celebrating nexte week so I need to get things out this week) and then our co-worker is having surgery tomorrow so I'm making her office get well card. I also have to make my April OCS card and I signed up for Aloha RAK this month so I'll be busy- ooh boy! what did I do to myself?


Have a great week and I will be posting something else tomorrow!

Take care of yourselves and God Bless!

Easter Goodies Part 2

Hi everyone!

Happy Saturday!

I hope you are all doing well and relaxing this weekend. Getting ready for the Easter bunny to visit?

I made the following goodies for some family, close friends/coworkers and their daughters.

I made this card for my dad and stepmom. I used another bunny stamp that I got from the Darcie's set at Cute stuff, cut out the backing using nesties and added layered flowers and dew drops to embellish





I still have 9 more of these covered notepads to make, but at least I made 1! hee hee!
I bought these from Ben Franklin and then I covered it with CS and DP, I then used my Martha Stewart punch to create the border and I bought this digi image from Tiddlyinks and colored her w/ my copics, then used my nestabilities to cut her out and back her.
Finally added some dew drops to the corners of the image and I added a large button that I got from PTI onto the center of the big DP flower and added a dew drop to the center.



I made this Easter basket for my friend's daughter and I bought this cute bunny from BF. I used a tutorial that I got from Whiff of Joy and I bumped up the size a little. I used a MS deep edge punch to make the handle, but I think I need to make a double handle so it isn't so flimsy. I still have 2 more of these to make for my other friend's daughters.





Anyway, I hope you have a great day!

I will be posting more pics of the rest of the Easter goodies I made. I also have to make 4 Administrative Professional's Day cards and 1 baby shower card.

Well, I'm glad that I won't be going shopping this weekend (no mo' money) and I will hopefully be crafting a lot.

We're hoping to bring my mom home for a few hours on Easter so she can spend time at home instead of in the hospital

Take care of yourselves and each other.

TTFN! Have a blessed day!
