Hello...Happy Easter!

A quick post and card to wish you all a Happy Easter! I printed out this Pure Innocence Digistampcharacter and colored her up in a few minutes.

Rather than struggle with coloring a "smooth" egg, I dabbed the colorless blender over the entire surface of the colored egg. I love the mottled look.



I also used the new Spellbinder die called Reverse Wonky Rectangles. Isn't that a fun name?

My Hero Arts Flickr friends will recognize Ivy, who I met for lunch yesterday, along with her hubby Eddie, and the B-boys, Brandon and Bryan.

I'm so glad we got to meet up, and I had the privilege of sitting next to BryBry, who scarfed down all of his popcorn chicken.

Thanks for the goodies, Ivy, and I hope to see the Wongs next year--maybe at the new Disney Aulani resort?

Enjoy the rest of your vacation and have a safe trip home!

Back with some Mo's

Hi and Happy Monday! Thought I'd share some cards made with a digital stamp from Mo's Digital Pencil Too. For a limited time, Mo offered this digi called "What's Cookin'?" for $1, with proceeds from the sale going to Japan for the victims of the recent earthquake/tsunami.

This little girl so reminds me of my older daughter who just loves to bake. I think I'll be sending this to her with a copy of "Two Bite Cupcakes" for her to try. The papers are from Memory Box and the border die is from Tim Holtz. I hand dyed the seam binding and the button is handmade by the talented Fimo queen, Jane.

I also made this tag and was going to enter this in Lily Pad's Color Challenge, but I missed the deadline.
The background is stamped with Hero Arts Envelope Pattern and I used some washi tape to attach the image to the tag.

The sentiment was handstamped using an awesome set of Studio G alpha stamps that I got years ago for $1! Such a great deal.


So far, "What's Cookin'?'" has raised $500 with proceeds going to Hands on Tokyo and GlobalGiving. I'm happy to support Mo's and all the other stamp companies who started fundraisers for such a great humanitarian cause.

And I'm super excited to share that my Flickr friend Ivy is making a return visit to our islands and I'm hoping I'll get to see her, Eddie, and the B-boys--Brandon and Bryan! Will post pics of our meeting in a future post.

Thanks for stopping by today......have a wonderful week!
