The Alley Way Stamps Be Inspired, Paper Issues and 4 Crafty Chicks {It's a TWEET}

Oh my! It is much too late and I have been paper crafting since I got home from work. Needless to say, I am a little giddy.

I sat down to play along with the Alley Ways Stamps Be Inspired Challenge and as I was finishing off my TAWS inspired Easter Treats Gift Baggie, I realized I did not have an Easter sentiment from TAWS for my project! Hmm!

Then I looked at the set I was using called Priceless Joy and saw the single words..."it's", "a" and "tweet" and then I started to laugh my head off! Giggling like crazy...because I made my mom an Easter treat baggie that says "it's a tweet"!!! 


Yep, still laughing as I write this! Will it be as funny tomorrow morning? Probably not, but right now, it is pretty hilarious!


This "Tweet" for my mom is filled with buttons right now, but tomorrow I am off to the store to get some chocolate eggs for this little baggie. I was inspired by the Polka Dots in the Inspiration photo...isn't it a great photo?!! I love it!! Hope you have as much fun creating as I did!! This is also for the the "Up in the Clouds" theme challenge over at Paper Issues. Love that wee birdie! I picked up these baggies from Scrapbookin' Adventures and saw them embossed by the shop owner Jennifer Edwardson-so I thought I would try embossing my bag too!

Paper Players Colour Challenge, Viva la Verve and 4 Crafty Chicks


Happy Easter! It is time for another Paper Players Challenge! I am having the family over for turkey-lurkey today, so excited to have everyone over to the house. We have not all been together since my dad was in the hospital, so I am happy that we can get together and celebrate being healthy and being a family!

Supplies:
Stamps: He is Risen (Stampin' Up)
Paper: Bazzill Basics Paper (Vintage Marketplace), American Crafts (Green Grid Paper), Whisper White, Not Quite Navy, Certainly Celery
Inks: Copics and Memento Tuxedo Black Ink, Not Quite Navy for the sentiment
Extras: Lace Ribbon, Oval Punches (SU!), Oval Nestabilities

This week I needed a good sketch for the stamp I had in mind.  I went looking and found this beautiful sketch over at Splitcoast Stampers. It is a Verve sketch challenge and I absolutely loved that could use lots of designer paper and layers! Yum!  I inked up a new Stampin' Up set called "He is Risen". The floral image was the main reason for the purchase but the sentiments are also lovely. The flower is inked in Memento Ink and coloured with my Copics. I also wanted to play along with the gals over at 4 Crafty Chicks, they have a theme challenge to do with Flowers. This is my first time playing with them! Hi ladies!

We hope that you will join the Paper Players Challenge this week!  Please be sure to visit the other DT Members to see their wonderful creations!
