Hoppy Easter! {Raspberry Suite Color Challenge}



It's Week 3 of Dawn's Raspberry Suite Color Challenge and she has definitely challenged us with this combination of 5 colors! But, aren't they oh so PRETTY together?!

Lucky for me, I happened to have this "Love Flowers" floral paper by the Paper Studio and it was perfect... except that I used white instead of vanilla. oops! :)

The "Hoppy Easter" sentiment was computer generated using the Stampin' Up! Font CD (font is Favero Wide). The Changito monkey (I mean Easter Bunny!) image is by Stampendous and was sent to me by Amy {thebasicscrapper} from Splitcoaststampers. I made a card very similar to this a couple weeks ago but with a different color scheme. It seems like I could just leave my scalloped circle and scalloped edge punches out on my craft table because I've been using them so often lately. I got out my nifty Crop-a-dile to add the large flower eyelet to the tag and I had FUN coloring the image with Copic markers.
If you want an enjoyable blog hop , HOP on over to Dawn's blog ~ My Favorite Things and take a peak at all the entries in this week's Raspberry Suite Color Challenge! You will be inspired and amazed at all the creativity!
We had a little "mini blizzard" last night, but thankfully not much SNOW and the SUN is shining now! YAY! It was FUN to hear from all of you yesterday with your weather reports. Hi Gail, Debbie, Mish & Nancy Jo! I hope the SUN is shining in your world today! :)
{A personal note for Nancy Jo...I was SO sad when my all time favorite rubber stamp store ~ Scatter Joy ~ closed last year! We're planning a shopping trip to Sioux Falls next weekend. Are there any new rubber stamp stores that I should check out?}
THINK SPRING!

Great card! That DP is perfect! Thanks for the comment you left on my blog. You had wondered where I got the stamp I used (the lady's hand holding the flower). It's from Stampendous and I purchased it at Archivers. I originally had the details on my post, but instead of copying and pasting to another post I cut and pasted, so they disappeared. I'm such a dork! Thanks for the heads up!!

I miss Scatter Joy also, and there is nothing new in SF. But I have stopped at The Stamp Garden a few times recently. It's on main street in downtown, in case you've never been down there. I've never done it, but they do take special orders on different companies each week if there is something they don't have in the store. The Stamp of the Month specials are usually pretty good also.
