Carrot Car and Mini Easter Basket!

It is a grey, cloudy, dreary day!  At least it isn't snowing!  But spring is just around the corner and I'm in "springy" mood today.  So it is time for some colorful Easter creations.

This gatefold card is easy to score on the Scor-Pal (a great half price item for a hostess, too).  Just find the 2 dots on the Scor-Pal ruler and you have the perfect markings for a gatefold card! 

I have also been playing with my copics (another great 1/2 price item) and am just delighted with how the "carrot car" from the Joy of Easter stamp set turned out.  I have lots of fun experimenting with the copic markers to see how they turn out.  And besides, this little duck and the carrot car is just the cutest thing around!

Also from the Joy of Easter stamp set, is this adorable little chick in the jar.  It is a perfect fit for this Mini Easter Basket that I found on Diana's Designs, a fellow TAC demonstrator!  Copics are the coloring medium on this too!

Time for Some Green!

On another snowy afternoon in the Midwest, the Paperwings Angel Blog Hop was a welcome reprieve from the seemingly endless winter. The theme - Green! So whether it be an card for St. Patrick's day or one for spring you are sure to enjoy them all.



For my card I used the Hip Hop Collection, Labels Large Nestabilities, and Trendy Greetings. It is a simple card - can you tell I ran out of time and went the card-in-less-10minutes route?  But I do love these little frogs in Hip Hop!  For the background I used the same Trendy Greeting stamp, stamped off on a piece of scratch paper and then stamped the cardstock for a lighter impression.





And enjoy the other Green cards from fellow Angels...

Reusable Snack Bags with Angel Wings ...

Some of you may have seen (or even own) my Reusable Snack Bags featured in my AndMoreBags ETSY site.  Today, I am super excited to announce that I have designed a Reusable Snack Bag that combines both my ink and rubber passion with my fabric and thread passion!



Not only are these bags functional (i.e. carry your snacks) but you can also use them to support your business!  Just think of the conversations they will start around the lunch table or at school/sports activities.  Give one to those special customers and hostesses!  You can even use them at your classes/workshops - use them for snacks or use them to hold those small embellishments or pieces of paper for each attendee. The possibilities are endless!



The outer fabric is 100% cotton and is stamped with one of our Palette Inks using stamps from The Angel Company. The inner fabric is water resistant nylon. A strip of velcro extends across the entire opening. This secures the opening, as well as, keeps your goodies inside! And, all seams are enclosed!



Wipe out the inside with a damp cloth. You can also wash on a gentle cycle and air dry.



The snack bags measure approx. 7 x 4 1/4" with an opening of 6 1/4".



I am selling these 2 for $8 plus $1.75 shipping.  Just let me know which Palette Ink you would like when submitting the order.  Time from order payment via PayPal to shipment will be about a week.  Questions - just email me at stamp2stamp2@yahoo.com.

Quantity

2 Snack Bags $8.00 4 Snack Bags $16.00 6 Snack Bags $24.00 For larger quantities, contact Rita at stamp2samp2@yahoo.com $0.00
