I was lucky enough to win a challenge over at
Doodle Palace and have been asked to set this Tuesdays challenge. This is one of my example cards, an Easel Easter card for the challenge.
The lovely purple papers are some old scraps from papermania papers I have had lurking around for ages. The image is a cute little clear stamp from
Little Claire which I have coloured in with Promarkers. The sentiment is a peel off stuck onto a label cut out with one of my nestability sets.
The lilac ribbon with little white spots was from a local craft shop near me which is unfortunately closing down, I also made a bow with the same ribbon and stuck this on top . I have used my Lace Doily Martha Stewart punch for the piece of card on the card base so that the easel part stays upright. I have stuck 3 little ducks on top of that. I have also added four really tiny and cute lilac coloured buttons.
I will never get rid of any of my nestability dies or this super cute stamp

As promised to celebrate my blogaversary and over 10,000 hits here is some blog candy up for grabs. To be in with a chance of winning it just leave me a comment below and I'll get my daughter to pick a number out on 31st March and get the bits to the winner asap afterwards.
Here is another card I have made following a sketch at Totally Papercrafts. I have used Hot pink pearlescent card as the base card. The designer paper is from Papermanias Capsule collection A5 pad. I have used American Crafts Hot pink crossgrain ribbon. The image is a Tina Wenke stamp which I have coloured in with Promarkers. I then cut it out with my nesties and stuck it onto a hot pink scalloped circle which I then stuck onto the card with 3d foam tape. I have used silver peel offs in each scallop to give a little more detail. I have added diamond stickles to the flames on the candles and also onto the icing to make it sparkle. The flowers are Prima's with large brads in the centres.
At last I have received my Beatrix Potter craft cds from Create and Craft, they are simply adorable and the bonus cd only available from Create and Craft has some fantastic new items on it, calendars, tunnel books, these frame cards etc etc and they have very simple instructions to folllow. I have never made anything like this before at all. Although the photo does not show this very well the two rabbits in the centre are decoupaged. I like the way the decoupage overhangs the edges of the frame too. 
Another easter card from me today. This cute image is a Pollycraft Digistamp which I have coloured in with my Promarkers, I don't seem to use anything else to colour my images in at the moment, always my Promarkers. The backing papers are from Papermania, the buttons from the 99p shop and the flower is a Prima flower. The letters have been die cut using my quickutz alphabet and my squeeze tool. The yellow brads are from my local craft shop and I have punched out the tag shape with the word Mum on with my whale of a punch deckled tag punch. I have used my Stampin Up circle punch to snip off the corners on the image and lilac card behind the image.
Here is a card I have made for a male birthday, I have a few male birthdays coming up soon. I have followed the sketch over at Sunday sketch and stamp. The backing paper is some freebie paper out of a magazine. The blue ribbon was also free from a magazine. The images are both digi stamps from Digistamp Boutique this cute little fella is called Jim. I have coloured both images in with Promarkers and drawn some faux stitching around the edges. I printed the sentiment from my PC and cut out with nesties. I have paper pieced the shirt and cap on Jims images with some basic grey paper.
This is the other example card I have made for this weeks challenge over at Doodle Palace
