A Bunny

This week's Squigglefly challenge is to make a baby card.


I used the Funky Bunny by Cheryl Grant Alger and my sentiment is from the set called New Baby Sentiments by Elizabeta Kushner. This bunny is one of my favorite images and I thought it would make a great baby card. I realized while I was doing this post that the eggs are more for Easter and I should have put a button or flower to cover them, so I will be doing that later today. If I don't do it now, it will be given like this because I am always scrambling in my stash to grab a card at the last minute!

Everyone needs another baby card so I hope you join us and get another one done. Hugz!

  1. Nancy this is so darling! I love all the textures you've got going on with the fibers and the corrugated piece. I think the little eggs look like part of the bow anyway, so it's just perfect!

  2. Oh this is so FUN, Nancy! That's the first word that came to mind. There are so many neat details, and after the eye rests on the ADORABLE bunny, there's lots more to take in. Love it.

  3. You never cease to amaze me with the elements you add to your cards to make them extraordinary! The mesh, cardboard and pretty fibers are things I'd never think to put on a baby card, and yet just look at how well they work together here! Well done Nancy!

  12. Great card Nancy. Novel idea to use a bunny on a baby card. Not a bad choice at all since bunnies are soft and hugable just like babies. Loving it. - Jim

Forest Goodies and Other Projects

 Hello Crafty Friends. I just got the Stamperia Forest Paper and Die Cuts in the mail so I had to play with them right away.   I have a combo creation - journal page and card.  On the journal page I used my 6x6 Dina Wakley Journal and laid a base of gesso.  I then used Dina's pastel crayons and some SU! inks and stamps.  Also added in some TH Dress Ink in Vintage Photo since I don't know how to make anything without it  (seriously).   The eagle is a Stamperia Forest die cut and is coated with gesso.  Did a bit of stenciling and distressing to finish the page off.  I am linking this the the **Art*Journal*Journey* September Texture Theme (last day - can't wait to see what October's Theme will be).  The die cut and the little smears add texture to the already very textured page.   I love the blue and green together and was inspired to made a quick card for my Son-in-law who cut down some tree limbs for us the other day.  The paper in the middle is from the Stamperia Forest

The Snuggle or Struggle is Real

Hello friends, Isn't this new House Mouse Image the cutest?  I am so glad that Spellbinders has partnered with House Mouse and brought in new images.  I was inspired to add birch trees and snow after seeing THIS  pretty card.  The snow is done with Snowtex which is one of my favorite winter mediums, and I painted the birch trees with black acrylic paint mixed with water and painted with an old credit card.  Everything else was painted with Daniel Smith watercolors. This is being entered in the HMFMC#402 which is Anything Goes with an option of rainbow.  While you might not think of a rainbow when you see this card, I actually used a lot of colors in the painting: yellows, browns, pinks, reds, and blues.  Some are not obvious because they are mixed with other colors or a very light.   Thanks for dropping by.  I have been a little under the weather lately, but I am feeling much better.   Hugz, Nancy

Brotherhood Wishes, a Paper Purse, and a Special Mug

Hello friends. No more fun travel or parade pictures - back to every day normal life.  On a positive note, I have been able to fit in some art. Hereis an art journal spread I finished this weekend. I am adding it to Alison's Summer Landscape challenge theme at **Art*Journal*Journey* .   I started the pages in my journal around July 4th after seeing Dina's stripes inspired Mixed Media challenge on Splitcoaststampers.com and got as far as stamping some foliage at the bottom.  I was stuck after that, and I wasn't sure where to go with it next.  A few days later, I was clearing out some things in the craft room and ran across a Thomas Kinkade book I cut up and use in my Bible Journaling.  There was a picture of  the San Francisco Bridge and another of some mountains so I tore them out and added them to my page with Gesso representing some of the beautiful things in America and also Alison's countryside theme.  They did not blend in very well and I needed to alter them to wo
