done with Easter

Well, I tried to post this one with the other card, but all the words kept bunching up together and would't stay where I was trying to put them. I am really computer/blog challenged! Maybe when I retire (in 55 months, but who's counting... ME!!) I will be able to spend some time learning how to do all of this better. Until then, it will be what it will be. :)

This card was inspired by several on SplitcoastStampers. I thought the idea of using the petal as the "carrot" and the Baroque Motifs swirl stamp as the leafy part was so clever! This is my take on that theme...

Stamps: Pick a Petal, Baroque Motifs

Ink: Pumpkin Pie, Certainly Celery

Paper: Pumpkin Pie, Certainly Celery, Whisper White, Certainly Celery d/p

other: eyelet border punch, Nestabilities scalloped square, pumpkin grosgrain ribbon, orange gingham ribbom, green self-stick "bling", green library clip

I'm a dork!

So - looking back several months, it looks like I posted quite a few cards twice. Sorry about that! Just goes to show you that I have not been keeping up very well. But you already knew that, didn't ya?! LOL! I wish I could say I'll do better, but I pretty much go with the flow these days so sometimes the flow is with stamping, sometimes the flow is in my chair with a book, sometimes the flow is puttering online, and occasionally the flow is on home improvement or out in the yard taking care of things. So I'll keep plodding along as best I can and beg your indulgence til I get better at staying up with things. :)

This one and the next post are the last of the Easter cards I did last spring, so you won't have to worry about Easter in the fall!!

Stamps: Easter Egg (long ago retired)

Ink: Regal Rose, So Saffron

Paper: Regal Rose, Gable Green, Whisper White, Georgia Peach d/p

other: ticket corner punch, large green brads, green and clear "bling", pink ric-rac
