Easter Challenge at Creatalicious!

Time for a new monthly challenge at Creatalicious Challenges!  Our theme for this challenge is Easter!  Our fab sponsor for this challenge is Scrappiness Designs and the winner will receive a $7 coupon to be used at their store!

I created this postcard using some of the fab elements from the Lovely Easter kit by Scrappiness Designs. The sentiment was an image that I found on-line and thought it fit this card perfectly.

Well, it's time for a new challenge at Digi Haven, "Happy Valentine's Day" is the theme for the next two weeks!  Our sponsor for this challenge is A Day for Daisies and they are giving the winner a $12 gift certificate to their fab store!

This image is called Love Tart by A Day for Daisies and the sentiment was a freebie from somewhere in blogland.  I used my Copic markers to color the image and added some red stickles to the hearts on the sentiment.  I used my hearts embossing folder, not to self, cut the circles out first then use the embossing folder.  The metal hearts are some jems I got from my iRock tool.
