Word Art Wednesday and Easter

 

Happy Easter, y'all. Easter is a joyous occasion. If you have time go to the Word Art Wednesday challenge and read the message for this fortnight. Word Art Wednesday  always has a bible verse for us to use. Praise the Lord for what Good Friday and what Easter really means.

Daisy Challenge #95 Not a square 4/30

The daisy wasn't suppose to be quite that pink in the middle but while using one of my Copic markers a blob of color dropped out. I probably over filled the marker.

This is a shaker card. However, I didn't put enough shaker bits in. Usually I use too many. These all stuck to the side. I may take of the top panel and make an attempt to fix it. Any clue as to how to get the sequins to NOT stick to the sides? At least the pink and yellow clouds turned out nice.

Hero Arts Infinity Rectangles
Group of Seven Cardmakers - This month they are teaching and showcasing cards using a technique called Floating Frames. You get a bonus card when you use this technique. I had to read and re-read the instructions and watch the video. Thankfully I read Loll's tip in addition. After I had watercolored my images I set them aside and stamped the same flowers but didn't watercolor those. I'm happy I tried the technique out first on the non watercolored flowers. Mine don't exactly look like they are floating but I at least attempted the technique and was still happy with the outcome.

Sizzix or Cuttlebug swiss dots embossing folder- 
I embossed the scene which I've done many times before and for some reason I didn't like the way it turned out this time. So, I took my bone folder and tried to smooth it out some. Now, the picture makes it looks like the EF is inverted. Sheesh! Okay, it's not that bad.
