Prairie Fairy Friday Easel Card Challenge!

Hey everyone! I am back with another Prairie Fairy Fun Friday challenge! This week, the amazing Roberta asked us DT members to create an easel card and I was more than happy to whip up another one! I had so much fun making one a few weeks ago because these popular cards are simple and fun!

To get the party started I used a Prairie Fairy Digital Stamps that is offered up as a FREEBIE on Roberta's blog! That's right! You can snag his adorable little Easter bunny, entitled All Cracked Up, by going right HERE! I decided to try something new this week and didn't use my Prisma's to color the image and instead I used some Sharpies. I am not thrilled with how the image came out at all, although I will say that I do love the look I achieved with the little egg! I actually colored the egg with a white Sakura gelly roll pen and then, while it was still wet, I covered it with Stickles. It doesn't show up in the photo too well, but in person it looks like liquid applique! Pretty neat!

The cardstock I used was CTMH & Bazzill Bling, the patterned paper is by Pebbles, Inc. & American Craft, the flowers are Prima, the ribbon is American Crafts, the buttons are from my stash, and the ink I used on the edges is by Studio G. I also used my Paper Pups & All Mixed Up Cricut carts for the sentiment. This was also my first time using Core'Dinations cardstock and I absolutely loved it!

Please take the time to visit the Fairy Fun Friday challenge blog! The DT has some amazing easel cards that will definitely inspire you, and we would love for you to play along as well! And, take the time to hop on over to Prairie Fairy Digital Stamps and check out all that Roberta has to offer! Plus, she has a permanent rewards program going on where you can save some money and get great images to work with at the same time!
