Easter Greetings

Happy Easter! It was a cold and rainy day here in Northern California. Luckily, the scavenger egg hunt I planned for the Little Guy was an indoor event. He had fun. My Sweetie made dinner, so that was great. I was able to create this card.

To everyone in Baja California and Southern California, I hope you're OK after than large earthquake this afternoon.

This card started with a Baja Breeze cardstock base. I don't have the Hero Arts Cloud background stamp, but I can cut the design on my Silhouette since Hero Arts released this image for the Silhouette. I used the negative as a stencil. I applied white craft ink and then imbossed the image with white embossing powder. I've had this The Cat's Pajamas Spring Fling set since last year and I haven't used 80% of it.

I only own 3 Copic markers, but I used them all on Driving Mr. Carrot! I also did some paper piecing and I used some colored pencils. I forgot to use Memento ink when I stamped the image...oh well. The eggs are also paper pieced.

Thanks for stopping by!
