Easter Blog Hop
February 28, 2010
Hello hello. Welcome to the second Art With Heart Blog Hop. This month the theme is Easter.
Previous Blog Hop Stop:
You may have arrived from Kristine Thompson's blog, or perhaps you are starting your blog hop here.
Blog Hop News:
Grab a cuppa and enjoy the Easter creations from those of us on Claire Daly's Art With Heart team. Hmmm, perhaps grabbing some chocolate would be more fitting! There are around 90 of us in this team. You'll find 14 stops on this month's blog hop. Leave a comment on them all, and email Nikki to let her know and you'll be eligible for this month's prize. (Details below.)
I was in a bright and happy mood when I sat down to make this project so I cracked open a packet of Bold Brights cardstock and my Bold Brights markers and this is what I came up with. (You might need some sunnies!)
Hmmm not sure that quite comes together but I sure had fun making it and my two kids love it. J
The base card is Tempting Turquoise with some chomps done with the Cropadile hole punches for a 'swiss cheese' border. I got a bit carried away and chomped right through both layers - quite like it.
The panel wrapped in narrow grosgrain ribbon scraps is Lovely Lilac. I coloured my Circle Circus stamps using Bold Brights markers and stamped onto Whisper White, then freehand drew two eggs and cut them out. The greeting is from the little Easter Bunny stamp from Greeting's Eight. I used my markers to just colour the greeting, not the bunny. You'll find the gorgeous bunny further along in this blog hop - keep an eye out!
The little girl is from the hostess set Window Dressing, once again coloured with my trusty Stampin' Write Markers. The eggs are popped up on Stampin' Dimensionals and the little girl got a double layer of dimensionals so that she'd sit up above the egg.
Blog Hop Prize Draw:
If you leave a comment on all 14 stops in our Art With Heart Team Blog Hop within 72 hours (before 6am March 2nd) you'll be eligible for our prize draw.
