don't you ♥LOVE♥ it when that happens?! i do! :) the card in question was made as part of this week's challenge at
shopping our stash, for which we are making easter- and/or spring-themed projects... though of course you know at SOS what we really looooooove is to see you dusting off your older, more neglected supplies and using them up. so if you pull off a feat of daring stash-usage, be sure to tell us about it when you post your link! i think i've done pretty well on that score, since my whole card revolves around finding a little baggie with half-a-dozen absolutely ancient doodlebug easter stickers in it, and i made them into this:
 |
| (patterned paper: mambi; easter stickers: doodlebug; clear "happy" sticker: SRM; adhesives: staples brand gluetape runner, 3m foam tape) |
when i found the stickers and then this paper, leftover from an 8x8 scrapbooking page kit i was given some time ago, i thought, "wouldn't it be cool if i could make the word seem to be growing up, out of the ground, like it was part of an easter egg hunt?"... and i think i sort of maybe pulled it off!
one thing of which i am entirely certain is that my lovely
SOS team-mates will have made astonishing things, especially to delight ♥YOU♥... why not pop over and confirm this for yourself!
Such a perfect easter card!
ReplyDeleteOh, you totally pulled it off, no "sort of maybe" about it! I love it. So springy and fun.
ReplyDeleteWow! This is sooooooooooooo pretty! <3!
ReplyDeleteWow! This is SO pretty, light, airy and just sings SPRING!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely delightful ... and oh-so-Lauren ... love it.
ReplyDeleteThis turned out so cute! And to think you just dug through and found old stickers and such from a kit. Very cool. I love when cards come out like they are in head too. Doesn't happen all the time for me much. :) Hope you are doing well and packing up!
ReplyDeleteAwesome combination of everything :) The itty bitteh buttons are too precious, and I love the eggs! And WOOT for it turning out just as you pictured! I love it when that happens :)
ReplyDeleteooohhh just loving this! what a refreshing spring look for such a chilly day here...moved in a blizzard but the house is nice and warm and that is all that matters...hope your packing and planning are all going well! We are 2/3 unpacked now (except the craft stuff)....starting to feel like home!
ReplyDeleteSeriously...best Easter card EVER! Making Easter cards is still on my "to do" list. That background paper is perfect and I love the buttons on the alphas!
ReplyDeleteLauren - This is ADORABLE! The letters do seem to be "growing" out of the ground! Those are great stickers and the paper is so fun! You rocked this one!!
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Michelle
