Papertrey Peeps - Challenge #4

This challenge was to CASE (that's copy and stamp exactly) Nichole, the owner of Papertrey Ink, with a few extra rules:  you had to CASE one of her projects from the February or March release, and you had to use different stamp set(s).

I chose to CASE this adorable card (Capture the Moment blog by Nichole Heady):


Instead of a dog, I used a rabbit, and made an Easter card:

Materials:  Paper: Stampin' Up!, scrap patterned paper, Stamps: Papertrey Ink (Through the Trees), Stampin' Up! (Wildlife Reserve, All Year Cheer I), Markers: Copic, Ink: Fluid Chalk, Ranger, Stampin' Up!, Tool: Copic Airbrush System.

Aren't my daffodils beautiful?  Spring has just exploded here in the last week.  We went from cold, raw weather, bare trees, and shoots barely coming up from spring bulbs, to low 70s, sunshine, and daffodils and phlox in bloom.  The Bradford pear trees have gone from bare to fully bloomed - quite literally - in the last 2 days.

And on the down side, pollen season has begun.  The boys have been sniffling for 3 days now, and have started their annual Zyrtec dosing.  In another day or so, once the pine buds begin to swell, we'll have to keep the doors and windows closed against the green pine pollen explosion.

  3. What a fab CASE!
    We have daffodils too over here! I sympathise with your boys, I've just started with the hay-fever sniffles too. Time to dose up on the anti-histamines - still it beats the winter ;D

  4. Such a nice CASEing job, I like the Easter tree idea! And I never knew pines caused allergies, but I sympathize! So glad to see those daffodils.

  5. Your card is wonderful! Love how you used the little bunny. We have a few daffodils blooming but none of the really pretty, unusual ones yet. We had snow again this weekend! It was warm last week though and my allergies were flaring up too. Ah, the pros & cons of spring!

  7. Nice job! I especially like the hill, It almost looks quilted. Your daffodils are beautiful. We had a mini blizzard Friday but today it was beautiful again. I just saw my tulips peeking up today too! Sorry about your allergy troubles. Hope they don't last to long for all of you.
