Hi everyone I hope this blog post finds you 

all enjoying the summer,

getting some Vitamin C

and making memories.

I live in Southern Califorina

So I get summer time for about 6 good months

out of a year.

The older I get the the less I want

the HEAT, and I could spend time

at the beach (but not all day).

I love the water 

(but yea Jaws fixed that for me

and we get sting rays out here as well)

But the idea of 

friends,

adult beverages

and conversations

is ALWAYS a good day.

My project today is to me

me and my bestie

chillin' and drinkin'

#beachlife.

I love this image and coloring it was lots of fun.

\

These two know how to have a good time

I think.

I used Spectrum Noir coloring blending pencils

 some fun summer themed paper  and die cutsfrom

For you all I have made several projects.

This first Photo is all the projects I made with this
amazing paper pack and Die cut pack.

I made several projects for this #newrelease from

Miss Kate Cuttables

This cute easy banner of Bunnies and Carrots

The paper in this pack has so many fun patterns to
choose from.With some green and pink plain card stock and
 pompoms for tales.

I found this on pinterest it is super easy to make.
A whole punch,stapler and some glue is all the extra supplies
you will need.

Next is 

this Bunny step card.

With the center step fold
I was able to add all these cute die cuts
that coordinate with the paper perfectly.

I added some Easter eggs,flowers and carrot

from the die cut pack.With some inking and enamel dots

for detail.

Happy Easter Card

The same step fold card.Only I turned it to a
landscape style.

When you open it up this adorable little bunny pops

up in a sea of Easter eggs.

I can wait to send these two out this Easter.

Pin Wheels

  

Simple and easy these 

pin wheel are so great

for Easter baskets.

The pin wheel cut came from the Silhouette Store.

With paper straws for the handles and

some flower die cuts they are ready to go.

Last but not least

This paper strip wreath.

This is made from 4 different pieces of the Easter Fun paper pack.

I cut them into 1 1/2 x 12 strips.

Wrapped them around a 9 in.Styrofoam wreath base.

Using my Xyron I ran the strips through to get full

adhesive on them.

Matching the ends up first and then the loop part on the wreath form.

I cut the flagged ends when it was all done.

The Banner at the top

I cut from burlap and then added the Easter word.

I used the die cut pack to add this Hop Hop Hop title.

Then added some egg and flower die cuts.

I took the flowers and cut into each petal a tad.

That way I could pinch the petals and leaves to 

give at a 3D effect.

Buttons,twine,flat back pearls finish

it off.

I also used the following SVG files

Birthday Banner

for the Easter banner at the top of the wreath

and

miss kristina font

For the Letters in the banner

I also used my

Miss Kate Cuttables

Cutting Mats

and My 

Miss Kate Cuttables
