The Craft's Meow March Blog Hop

Thursday, March 7, 2013


If you're here for my CASE Study post scroll down. Welcome to The Craft's Meow March blog hop! The theme this month is Easter / Encouragement. I love those adorable critters from the Easter Blessings set, so I couldn't resist creating a little springtime scene with them and a few little quilled flowers.


I sketched and cut out some random grass for my little scene. The lamb, bunny and little chick are stamped using VersaMagic Aegean Blue, Pink Petunia and Thatched Straw. I also added the little bees in there from the Happiness Is stamp set. The little quilled flowers are very easy to make, just five closed coils for the petals and a contrasting color coil for the centre.


The sentiment is also from the Easter Blessings set from The Craft's Meow. I added a bit of texture to the top of the card with some partial embossing using the Swiss Dots embossing folder.


Next up on the hop is the talented Gayatri. Here's the full list of participants for today's blog hop.



Here are the stamp sets from The Craft's Meow that I used on my card today.

    I'm also smiling at your "new" place of residence!!! Last night I went to sleep in Ireland and today we're in the U.K.!!!! I thought first that there was another Clare stealing your style!!

      Thanks Deirdre!

      Ha! Just saw it! That's not the first time it's happened either. I have told people before that the Republic of Ireland is not in the UK!! What can you do eh! : ) It's like saying Canada's part of the USA!

      I'm so sorry about that! I apologize on behalf of Julie. We Americans can be very ignorant at times. I've corrected the blog post. Hugs! Lisa
