Clean & Simple Day 1 and some other fun

Today is day 3 of the Clean & Simple card making class. I was soooo delightfully busy today that I did not even progress to day 2. So this little post is about day 1, using masking. There is not much masking on this card, oh well. Some of the hearts are from Michaels, as is the sentiment, some are from Hero Arts. I used a Fiskars corner punch and underlayed the corners with red paper.

I spent my day at the Newark Museum, which has a fun little exhibit about tea pots. Here are some examples. The variety was amazing and some of them were really fun, like the middle pot in the top row, which shows a building with plumming and a dog on top, Ha, ha...!

Another really stunning piece was this:

It looked like a golden, glittery tapestry, but it was assembled from metal cans.

And now its movie time for me! Have a good night and thanks again for all those niece comments you left on my blog, I really enjoy reading them.

Easter Egg and Bunny

Hi Everyone, I made a bunch of Easter cards, after all its little more than one month and I need to send them out in time... You see, they are all similar - using both the die cut and the negative, that I cut from a die cut egg. The cute bunnies got their yearly appearance - they are from Impression Obsession. the egg is by Lifestyle Crafts. The sentiment is by Papertrey. And here are bigger photos from this set: Linking up with Creative with Stamps - Easter The Paper Players - die cutting Die Cut Divas - animals Happy Little Stampers - anything goes with dies
