Sweet Stampin' - Easter

It's Sweet Stampin' time again. How's life been treating you? Are you enjoying the spring or you in the mist of the mist!!

I'm once again a happy bunny- yey, my holiday is booked along with my excursions.  My hubbie and I are going on another cruise in the middle of the year, and everyone assumes that we're planned a lovely warm weather one.....but nah!! Why be boring lol.  Nope, we're going to Alaska - we've planned to watch a Lumberjack show, a visit the glaciers, go whale watching, and visit a huskie puppy pound and go sledding with their mums and dads. So excited is an understatement.

Anyhoo, back to my Sweet Stampin' - our theme this week is Easter. 
 

 

Here's What I did

I used a 6 x 6 card base, and matted and layered it with some pretty lemon paper and doodled around the edge.  Then using my Die-namic die I cut out 2 squares (one in blue and one in green) and cut them in half, I re-joined 2 of the halves onto the page to make my sky and grass.  I stamped my 'Happy Easter' sentiment banner and coloured it with Copics and added glitter. From my brand new dies which are so sweet, I die cut a couple of pieces of picket fence and some clouds and attached them to the scene. My little Forever Friends bear was stamped 3 times, coloured with Copics, cut out and layered up. He was stuck onto my card along with the coloured and cut out little chicks. 

To finish off I die cut some flowers and plants (in reality these were made stamen and leaf dies) which I added them to the front along with some punched out butterflies. I wanted a clean and fresh look and hopefully I've achieved it..
