Scrapbook Title Sets 2.1-2.4: Easter

Hoppy Easter everyone!  Easter is such a fun time, with all the kids scrambling to gather the eggs and treats.  Here is a paper piecing project to celebrate Easter: eggs and bunnies!  
 
 
The letters were cut with Cricut's Plantin Schoolbook cartridge.  My favorite part of the basket is the butterfly that looks like it just might flutter away...
 

The pastel paper is so fluffy; it gives the bunny a nice 3D look. 

Peekaboo, this shy bunny is hiding behind Easter eggs!

The whiskers were a little hard to work with, but it really adds character to the bunny, doesn't it?

I really had a lot of fun working with the pastel colors.

This is a layout for someone's 60th birthday.  DCWV's Sweets stack and Nursery stack were used for the photo mats.

Birthday Girl
The birthday hat was made with the Cricut machine, using the Celebrations cartridge.
 
The lollipop is handmade.
 
 
 
Who doesn't love a lot of presents?
 
The candles were made with the Learning Curve cartridge.
 
The cupcakes were also made with the Celebrations cartridge; then they were dipped with microbeads. The microbeads look just like the sugar beads you can find on cupcakes, and I'm tempted to eat them! 
 
The Celebrations cartridge was also used to cut the balloons.
 
The Happy Birthday font was made with the Beyond Birthdays cartridge.
 
It was fun using the hinges to make a miniature picture frame, featuring the birthday girl's name.
 
 
 
Pastel colors are so soothing, aren't they? 
 
 
 
The curtains were handmade by securing scrunched fabric with a colored staple.
 
 
Happy Birthday!

Scrapbook Layout 8: Cruisin Together

This layout was made with DCWV's Travel Stack; each photo mat was edged with Colorbox Pigment Ink (Earthly Ores).  There was a request for a chubby tear bear wearing a lot of make-up, to resemble someone, so pink eyeshadow was added with chalk.

Another cruise ship in the distance

Lifesaver
This took me a long time to make so perhaps I will just buy one next time.

Island
Notice the crab and starfish?

Palm Tree
I had a lot of fun making the palm tree. 

Lawn Chair
This was handmade.

The Mr.
The water background was made with a sheet from DCWV's photo stack.

The Mrs.
She is enjoying the cruise with a drink in her hand.

Cruisin
I wanted the rail to pop, so I cut long strips of chipboard, but it ended up taking a long time to make!

Together
The block is made of acrylic and adds something 3D to the layout.

Photo Mat #1
It was so lucky to find a mulberry flower that looked so similar in shape and color to the flowers in the cardstock.

Photo Mat #2

Photo Mat #3

Photo Mat #4
The palm tree and flowers were assembled so that a picture can still be tucked behind them.

Some words to describe their fun times.
 



Celebration
