Easter?


Easter is this weekend? Seriously? Did I miss the memo? I had plans to make some Easter cards. I am guessing that won't happen this year. Okay, I KNOW that won't happen this year. Even though today's posted card took no time at all to make, there is no way I can mail cards in time for them to arrive for Easter. Sooo... my plan is to be lame and post an Easter card. That way, people can assume this is the Easter card they would have gotten if I wasn't so pathetic. This is all just so sad

Today's card is made using Memory Box stamps and papers. I just love their images! When I said this card took no time, I really meant it. I stamped the bunny onto cream paper with Adirondack black ink. I allowed it to dry and colored the bunny with Copic markers and punched him out with an oval punch. I then punched a green scallop oval and layered the two pieces of paper. It is hard to tell from the scan, but the scallop punch is popped up onto the card. The card looks more difficult than it is because I used a great piece of patterned paper that did most of the artwork on the card for me. I added a cute saying, and I was done! I was very close to using "Hoppy Easter" instead. Humm...maybe another card is needed.

Awww, that's sweet! I know, Easter kind of snuck up too early this year didn't it? Hope you have a lovely weekend!

This is such a cute card! Love the patterned paper too. Yep, I won't be getting Easter cards out either. It snuck up on me too.

This is the earliest Easter will be until year 2136 (factoid du jour). Oh yea, cute card too!
