Fantabulous Spring!


I have to say there are a few blogs that I check all the time because well I just love em'. http://www.fantabulouscricut.blogspot.com/ is one of them. This challenge/crawl is a great one for this time of year! Spring! I just love it, it represents new life and new beginings. There are a few colors that scream spring. This challenge/crawl required three of them green, pink and yellow! MMMMMM YELLOW PEEPS!! OK I was getting all excited for my PEEP filled Easter Basket. This card does open however I have concidered just making this a single piece card, perfect for sliding in and Easter Basket for that special someone, I am in negotions with the Easter Bunny for a bulk purchase deal!! :) I used some scraps for this whole project. I am going to try to be a little more dilligent with keeping notes on products I use. I did stickle the PEEPS cuz we all know they have some fantabulous sugary sprinklies on them, and again I will say MMMMMMM PEEPS!! I did use the herringbone Cuttlebug Folder on the base of the basket, however I used a rolling pin to texture it instead of the Cuttlebug to make it more subtle (a friend of mine told me about that.) I did not want the standard solid colored eggs so I went for my most Easteriffic prints to make my eggs. The stamp says "some bunny loves you". Happy Spring to everyone I hope it is just as sweet for you as it will be for me!
