Happy Easter Peeps

Good morning... 

Nazeema here sharing my weekly card with you. 

Are you ready for Easter!!??? We are and far in advance than normal too!! 

We are spending the afternoon with our furry friends at the Animal Shelter.

This weeks challenge at SweetStamps is "Hippity Hop""Easter" theme. 

I have been all over these new Peeps piccolos, since they were released a few weeks back.  Jennifer McGuire did a tutorial on coloring embossing paste and I knew I have to try it on these guys. 

Even though I am not a marshmallow fan, these little bunnies sure are cute!!! 

I started with the Tulip Lattice Stencil.  Using a circle die, I created a circle that provided as a guide for each bunny. I wanted to keep the space above them clean.  Then I colored my embossing paste with distress ink re-inkers.  You need very little of this stuff.  If you want a stronger color, then add more.  I let these dry overnight, then added black dimensional pearl as eyes. 

Here is a close up.  I love the texture, which the actual peeps do have!!

Well I hope that you and your family have a blessed Easter. 

See you soon!! 

Hugs.

Hangin' With My Peeps

Hello and Happy Friday!  Lisa here today to share a cute little Easter Card, perfect for this weekend...

Enamel Embossing Powder Adhesive	Enamel EP TURQUOISE LAGOON	Enamel EP CRANBERRY WINE	Detail White EP

To create this card I started by embossing the little Bunny Peeps in various colors.  Now the yellow bunny embossing powder was created by mixing several powders together.  I then layered some patterned paper, stamped the sentiment, and adhered the peep.  Ta - da!  Super clean and simple and let's not forget cute!!!

I hope you have a wonderful weekend and that you'll get a chance to play along with our latest challenge: Hippity Hop

Thanks so much for stopping by and Happy Crafting!

Especially for You

Happy Tuesday!

Easter is almost here and I wanted to share my little Peep with you today.

This little guy was part of the new release. I just simply covered him in

Lemon Butter 3D enamel gel and let him dry.

The Tulip Lattice stencil has been a popular little number as well and I just

shaded that in bright green ink.

Topped off with a few more enamel dots created with Deep Red and Avocado and a bow.

A fairly simple, but bright/fun design.

I hope you enjoyed him.  

Be sure to peek in on the latest challenge.

Until next time...Happy Easter to you.

I had a blast embossing the Piccolo Accents- the Enamel Embossing Powders are all shimmery and are great to work with! I tool one of the large solid eggs and trimmed out a little bit of the top and made the Easter Basket. Can you see how intricate the cuts are on the piccolos?  I used the Enamel Gel on the yellow bunny, then sprinkled on some Ultrafine glitter.

Have a great day, and hope to see you join in the challenge!
