Spring Butterflies

 This is embossing on Vellum, and alcohol ink coloring,. The embossing folder is a 3D folder. Glitter edgings are starfoam line stickers from Pop Ups Etc. This became a lovely Easter Card for a friend.

Lattice Double Card

 The lattice lifts up to reveal a graphic, or a sentiment and the designer paper layer lifts up for the card's message body inside. The papers I used are from Perennial Lavender by SU and white cardstock.  The font on the Sentiment is Virginia Antique.  This was a FUN card to build and find elements for. I saw several lattice techniques with this particular diagonal strip placement, and this one came from Melinda's Rubber Room.  This card is VERY effective with a larger medallion centered on the lattice top, but today I needed an Easter Card!

Impossible Card

 This little Easter card is created with SU Perennial Lavender DP and White Cardstock with sentiment in purple ink with the font Virginia Antique. The Rabbit is from a Creative Fabrica designer.  The Tutorial that inspired this design was from Split Coast Stampers , Diana Kowal, Designer

Easter Treat Boxes

 

This little treat box is representative of about fifteen that I made--each slightly different, of course.  I made a dozen for St Patrick's Day too.  

Most of the elements I used on the St Patrick's Day  treat boxes were by

Laurie Furnell at etsy.

I made seventeen of these and not one looked like another

Please see these  In Reene's Room--along with her excellent tutorial for making them.

Pop Up Triple Easel Card

 This card was inspired by Lisa Curcio (Lisa's Stamp Studio)  in her March 11 Premier Tutorial for fun-fold Pop Up Easel Cards.  Tip:  Watch the cutting dimensions on the card base carefully.
I used papers from the Simon Says Stamp March Cardmaking Kit, and graphics from Watercolor Easter Day Bunnies clipart by Creative Fabrica AI artists

Second card, created with the same paper options, and Laurie Furnell spring gnomes

Fun with Stampin Up

 A fun three project workshop led by Dian Minor Stampin Up Demonstrator in Mesquite today produced a darling Hershey Kiss Wrapper, a pretty "It's a Good day-To Have a Good Day" general greeting card, and a pretty birthday card with a pocket.

The little peeking around the corner rabbit is from my stash but the rest of the papers and greetings and ephemera are  SU products.
