Easter Egg Chick Card & Peekaboo Puppet

Happy Easter! I hope you are having an amazing weekend filled with love and creativity! We are enjoying a visit with my family. Earlier in the week, we did an egg hunt and some Easter crafts at our girl scout meeting. I saw a similar idea to this chick clothespin on line and had to make it my own way! 

I used the Balloon Bouquet punch to make the egg and chick inside! Check out this cuteness!!

 

And if you need a last minute Easter or spring project, be sure to check out my short video below to make your own! We made the peekaboo clothespin puppet with the Girl Scouts, but you can take the same pieces and turn into a card!

Grab your Balloon Bouquet Punch and some yellow and white cardstock and follow along as I show you how to make the punch art chick and egg!

2 CASEd Card Layouts: Finding Inspiration from the Catalog

Yesterday, I did a training video for my team explaining how I find inspiration in our catalogs and translate it to new projects. I like to take a notebook and sketch card layouts while looking through the catalog or on Pinterest. Then, I take the sketched layouts to my stamp room and use them to create new cards.

Here are two cards that I created for my training video. Can you find the cards in the Occasions Catalog that inspired me? Head over to my Facebook Page and tune in for a Facebook Live video at 11:00 am CT today (or watch the replay) and I'll reveal my inspiration cards and show you how I sketch out the layouts!

Both of these cards using Sale-a-Bration products! Be sure to get your order in by Saturday, March 31st to claim your freebies! Learn More

Beautiful Peacock Color Challenge Card

Last weekend, I gave my team a Color Card Challenge and asked them to create a project using at least three of these colors: Rich Razzleberry (Brights), Tempting Turquoise (Brights), Lemon Lime Twist (In Colors), and Night of Navy (Regals). I love seeing everyone's cards and how they used the colors. We have a lot of fun on our team Facebook group! If you've been thinking about signing up to be a demonstrator, now is the perfect time! Sign up by Saturday, March 31, and get TWO free stamp sets with your Starter Kit. Learn More about being a demonstrator. Maybe you'll be participating in our next Weekend Card Challenge!

Sale-a-Bration Favorites: 14 Bubbles & Fizz + Shimmer Ribbon Projects

The Bubbles & Fizz Designer Paper is one of my favorite Sale-a-Bration gifts this year! I love this colorful paper because at least one designer on each piece is "neutral" and not specific to bottles, so it works so nicely with many other stamp sets! And ever better: the Shimmer Ribbon Combo pack coordinates perfectly with three widths of ribbon in Calypso Coral, Bermuda Bay, and Basic Gray. Here are some projects using the designer paper and ribbon to inspire you. Make sure to get these goodies before Sale-a-Bration ends on Saturday because these products will never be available again after Sale-a-Bration!

Sale-a-Bration Favorites! Get them before they're gone!
