Such fun spring colors for today’s Color Challenge (CC729) on Splitcoast! They really are perfect for an Easter card..even if it’s a silly one. 

This card is pretty CAS & all on one layer. The big bunny head image is one of my faves so I stamped him, drew some paws where I wanted them, then masked them & stamped the brick wall. With the masks still in place, I sponged in the sky then removed the masks & colored everything. The little Easter eggs (jelly bean image) & sign were fussy cut & added.

Here’s the inside & below it are the Copics I used.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

We have a lovely site for the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC689) this week. And I was really taken with the items on THIS page. I really like the almost magical colors.

To make my fantasy scene, I stamped the different toadstools, masking a little here & there, then colored them. I did my out of the box along the top and added the panel w/ the colored tree slice behind it. The extra toadstool & little frog were fussy cut & added.  I thought a couple of dragonflies would fit in so I added those, as well.

Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used.

It’s my pleasure to host this week’s Inspiration Challenge (IC687)on Splitcoast! So we’re headed over to All Posters. I really love colorful posters..especially vintage ones, and for my card, I was inspired by THIS poster. 

I just rec’d these super cute new gnome images & couldn’t wait to take them for a test drive. This card really wasn’t hard & it’s all on one layer. There are only 4 images  (besides the greeting) the gnome w/ toadstools, the snail w/ toadstool, the rocks & the tall trees. The only one I masked was the gnome in order to stamp the trees behind him. Everything else is just coloring & I did all the background coloring first before I colored the images. 

Here’s a look at the inside & below it are the Copics I used (the bottom right one is an E31).

Thanks so much for stopping by!
