Rose Bunny

 Today is RELEASE DAY for the new MARCH Stamps at C.C. Designs. As you have seen from our Preview Days, these new stamps revolve around Spring and Easter with some of the cutest chickies, bunnies, and kitty around!

There are so many cuties in this release but I decided to use Rose Bunny.
She is so sweet isn't she?!
I coloured her with copics and cut her out using the Layering Tags Die.
I also used the Make a Card #13 Die for the grass and the cloud.
The saying is from the Friends Sentiments stamp set.

Every release we will have a New Release Blog Hop to showcase our awesome Design Team. Check out their amazing creations!

I love this stamp so much, it is so adorable isn't it?! :)

Leprechaun

I have something a little different to share today.

I decided to use the super cute Roberto's Rascals Leprechaun stamp to create a tag for a sweet gift.

He's so adorable isn't he?!  

I also used the Lucky Rainbow Sentiments to emboss the word "lucky".

And I used the Layering Tags Die too.

I bought a bucket of M&M's and collected the colours and arranged them in the bottle to make a rainbow.

I thought it would make a great gift with a little note on the back saying how lucky we are to have such a great teacher.

Umbrella Cinnamon

I have another new stamp from CC Designs to share today.
This is Umbrella Cinnamon and she's having lots of fun splashing in puddles :)

My girls love these Cinnamon stamps!
My youngest said "She's so lovely but why do you always colour her in yellow?"
I hadn't realised I was! But I had a good excuse this time anyway.
"Because she's in a raincoat!"
Obviously raincoats can be any colour, but yes I coloured her with yellow.

So I took a look back through my cards to see if she was right.
The results were :
4 Cinnamon cards = 2 yellow, 2 other
So it depends how you look at it I guess, like a glass half full or half empty type thing :)

My colour and paper choices were also inspired by the mood board challenge at Scrapbook Boutique.
It's a board full of summery/beachy images.  So not like this stamp at all BUT it has lots of yellow beach umbrellas and yellow swimsuits against a cloudy blue sky. The quote on the board is perfect too!
So I made this image fit :)

Ingredients :
Stamps :Umbrella Cinnamon. Little Pixie - Sunshine
Card : x-press it, suede, Homegrown (Pebbles), Oxford Lane (MME)
Ink : memento black, versamark
Other : white ep, Tilda lace die (Magnolia), copics

4 Leaf Puppy

It's new release time at CC Designs (well almost)!
I have a sneak peek for you today :)

This is 4 Leaf Puppy, and isn't he adorable?!

I've used a new stamp called Spotty Dotty too.  I just stamped it with white craft ink, so super easy and it made such a sweet background.

The sentiment is from a new set called Lucky Rainbow Sentiments.  It is actually one large sentiment but I decided to split it and put this part on the front of the card and the rest on the inside of the card with an uncoloured stamp of the puppy.
I must admit it's rare for me to stamp the inside of a card, I am a bit lazy in that department.  But I really like how this turned out.

Ingredients :

Stamps : 4 Leaf Puppy, Spotty Dotty, Lucky Rainbow sentiments
Card : x-press it, crumbcake, baked sugar
Ink : memento black, versafine, white craft
Other : MAC #14 die, Make a tag die, copics

Copics used :

W00, 1, 3, 5, 7

E 50

BG 10, 11, 72

YG 01, 08, 13, 17
