Egg Hunt!!

Hello to you all!  Hope your week is being sweet to you!  I'm just warning everyone that the next two weeks on my blog may be a bit skinny---due to all the work I'm doing behind the scenes to get the "Color Me Creative Classroom" up and running and our NEW Mini-Magazine coming April 1st!  I try not to view my to-do list as a whole, cuz' then I get overwhelmed so I'm just working my way down the list one bit at a time, LOL!  But there will be posts everyday and new projects, just maybe not 2 a day :o)  Last night my kid's middle school had a School Spirit Fundraising Night at our local Fuddrucker's and my son entered an eating contest, LOL!!  He had to eat a whole, huge hamburger in a race against teachers, his principal and other students---omgoodness how funny!  Wish I had a picture of it, too fun and the night raised alot of money for the school which is good.  Nothing better than a Fuddrucker's burger, fries and shake I tell ya! Mmmm....mmmm Good!

Easter Egg Hunt

Today I'm sharing my Try It Out Tuesday card for Susana's Custom Art & Card Design store--yes I'm late, seems I'm really behind this week (surprise, surprise)!  Anywho I challenged the DT to a color challenge--pinks, moss/sage green and cream--I added kraft (hey it's a form of cream, hee hee) and soft sky blue!  Cheater, Cheater--yeah I hear ya, LOL--oh well!  I used a fabulous cute image from Elisabeth Bell for SCACD called "Bunnie"--isn't she a doll with her bunny friend?!  The papers are from K&Co's "Life's Journeys" paired with colored cardstock.  The kraft cs was scored with my Scor-Pal in a basket weave pattern to match her lil' basket--very easy to do.

The pretty swirls were made with my NEW SLICE MACHINE--woohooo!  Love that thing cuz I'm not much of a Cricut gal (gasp)--I just don't have room in my craft room to have it set up and it's too much of a pain to pull out all the time.  So enter the SLICE!!  I bought 8 cartridges and I can store it under my table, pull it out when I need it and it's so easy to use!  These swirls are from the "Basics 3" cartridge--I got all the cartridges at Amazon.com.  I added some ink to them to distress a bit and then pearls from Kaisercraft and with my NEW White Pearl Pen by Viva Decor (wanting some of these? Susana will have more in stock by Friday--BUT she does have the opal Paper Pen in stock which gives the same effect if you want to make pearls)!  I tied my bow with PTI ribbon and my Bow Easy and then made some hatpins to match!  All of the flowers are by Prima's E-Line except for the small ruffly flowers (see those here).

She was colored with copics (pinks: R22,R21,R20 and Colorless/Blues: B01,B000) and then I added Smooch Illuminate to her bonnet and trims (love this stuff).  Her shoes and eggs got a nice shiny coat of diamond glaze.  I think she's a real cutie!

Now make sure and hop over to the store blog HERE to see the rest of the DT's lovely projects!  I'll see ya back here tomorrow!
