EASTER GIFT and CARD

Happy Sunday everyone!! Hope all of you are having a wonderful weekend. We are having beautiful weather in Central Texas right now. It is supposed to be 80 today.

Our TIOT this past week was a little delayed, but what better way to start your week off than with some new ideas. Our challenge this week was to create an Easter or Spring gift. I decided to use Little Aud from the new Spring Collection by Victoria Case for SCACD.

For my card I wanted to try a side step card. The pictures are a little dark. The colors are a pretty lavender and teal. I colored Little Aud with my Copics and cut out an extra rabbit to put with the eggs. There are some new products on my card. I used the new Ultrafine Flower Soft on the bunnies tummies and in the center of the flowers. If you click on the picture you can enlarge it and see it better. On the Easter eggs I used the new Viva Decor Paper Pens to create my pearls. I used the Pink and Lilac. When you visit SCACD there is a video to show how these wonderful pens can be used. Whether you purchase one or not, the video is worth watching. Did you will notice the little shimmer on the roses and flowers, I sprayed them with the new Tsukineko psst Shimmer Spritz. This new Spritz is really really nice. You only have to spray once.

I have seen several different baskets lately on some of the blogs I visit and I thought this one where you have to weave the strips would be fun. It was actually much easier than I thought it would be. The tutorial can be found here. The ribbon was a great find in a little shop in a tourist town. The butterflies were already attached to it, with pearls and all. I used my MS punch to make the handle. The stamp is from my stash. The Pearls on the handle and the Easter Egg were made using Viva Decor Paper Pen - Pink. Then just a little Stickles was added on the egg.

This is a picture of the another side of the basket. I used my nestabilities for the flower and added a Petaloo flower in the center. The flower is sprayed with Tsukineko psst Shimmer Spritz - Sparkle.
