EGGS-tra Special Easter

I am entering this card into three different challenges: Go Fish (Something Fun or Funny), The Paper Variety (Card and Coordinating Envelope) and Scrappy Moms Stamps (Easter).


Finished Card: 4 1/4" x 5 1/2"

Materials:
Cardstock: White and Two Shades of Pink
$1 Bunny Stamp from Michaels
VersaMark Stamp Pad
Black Embossing Powder
Spectrum Noir Markers
CardzTV with Mary Clear Stamps Easter Punnies "Have an EGGS-tra special Easter!"
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder Swiss Dots
Queen and Co Pearls, Orchid 9 Medium
Mounting Tape
Studio G Clear Stamps, Eggs (on envelope)
Black Pigment Ink (on envelope)

If you read my first post on March 31st, (just scroll down if you would like to see it), you know that I was going to challenge myself to use heat embossing...and this the the second card that I have done just that. I really like the way the embossing came out again. Since it was small areas that needed to be colored, the Spectrum Noir Markers worked fine, but I don't think I would use them for larger areas with the heat embossing. I think there was a chemical reaction going on that  might ruin your larger projects...just my opinion though.

For the envelope, I made a coordinating liner with the colors and the Swiss Dots embossing. I also added a stamped set of eggs for a play on words with the sentiment.

I think I got my money's worth with my Michael's dollar stamp...he is such a funny bunny. Don't you agree?

Thanks for dropping by.

imagine what you could do...
