PKS Sketch Challenge

Happy Wednesday!

 

It's finally warming up here in the Frozen Tundra....Yippee!!!!   

I can FINALLY get the kids outside for some fresh air, more than just from the house to the car and back. 

 

And I've start Spring cleaning....here in Wisconsin (or at least in my neck of it), spiders are a common nuisance.  So before the thaw, I am sweeping all the ceilings and nooks/crannies to keep the pest population down to a minimum. 

 

In between the cleaning and feeding the kiddos, I created a card for the current Peachy Keen Stamps challenge.

 

It's a sketch challenge.......

 

 

I am SO ready to Spring and all the festivities and family traditions..i.e. Spring cleaning.  

 

 

 

 

For my card, I pulled out the 3 Birds on Parade Cricut cartridge (one of my FAVS!) and cut the bunny bird at 3 1/2 inches.  I only cut the base so that I could stamp a Peachy face on him. 

 

I stamped his face in Memento Tuxedo Black ink, highlighted with a Gelly Roller, colored his beak with Pumpkin Liquid pears for dimension and interest.   Finally chalked and highlighted his cheeks.

 

The cracked egg is part of the bunny bird cut.  I stacked several on the side, in different sizes, on the left side.  I'm thinking that I should have added some yellow eggs, but hindsight is 20/20, right?

Here's what I made for the challenge:

A decoration for our front door.  With St. Patrick's Day and Easter so close together this year, I have not gotten out the Spring/Easter decorations.   So, I made one.  =) 

I used Scraptastical Kreations Label it, Tag it, Frame it file to make the top frame.  The rest of the decoration and the top details are all from Scraptastical Kreations' Welcome Spring file.  I finished it all off with purple twine.  The twine serves two purposes: 1. hold the two sections together, 2. Securely hangs. 

 

Now, it's off to Jeannine to see her fabulous project for this month's challenge.

Thank you so much for hopping along with us. We hope you've been inspired to join in on the challenge, we can't wait to see what you create!
