Rabbits of the Round Table HMOR1135 Stampabilities

 (vintage House Mouse Gruffies)

Do you remember when I said how much I loved anything to do with carrots? Well...this is part of my "carrot" collection. I just love these cute Gruffies. This is a wonderful vintage stamp from 2008. 

I sure do miss the Gruffie collection of House Mouse stamps. The bears, bunnies, kitties etc were always a favorite. Regardless, all these stamps have become classics.

I don't have a name for this pretty die, but it really is pretty with it's lacey edge.

Di's Bio

I have been drawing since a child and studied graphics at college many years ago, I now work as a medical photographer part time, but my love was always drawing. I started cardmaking about 4yrs ago when I bought my daughter a cardmaking kit which we did together, but I’m afraid I got the bug! My daughter preferred scrapbooking. I then started looking online at other blogs and this then became my passion, and I loved sharing my cards with like-minded people. I love stamping and love finding images, but sometimes I could not find what I wanted so I started to draw myself. This then has become my second addiction, and I have never looked back, I love thinking of new images, and it's just fabulous to see others take them and make them into beautiful works of art. Long may it continue!

Many thanks to our generous Sponsors for their continued support.  

Thanks for stopping in today, I do hope you 

enjoyed checking out my House Mouse inspiration!

Shadow Box Card Easter Chick

Good only April 8, 2025

Such a cute Easter creation! I love the 3D dimension of this cut file along with the bright and cheerful Doodle Bug papers. I made this file exactly as designed but I added a blue sky piece on the back panel. I just wanted a bit of blue sky behind the chick.

April Challenge

Anything Goes

or the optional theme-

"Easter"

Easter March 3112J

I dug out another vintage but timeless Penny Black stamp! 

I colored the image and then cut it out with my Scan N Cut. I used some pretty Echo Park/Lori Whitlock paper(Our Little Princess) cut with Lawn Fawn dies(rectangle, circle and grass). I also used the Lawn Fawn cloudy stencil for the sky background. I added the Simon Says Easter sentiment strip on with dimension strips as well as adding the hedgie and eggie with dimensionals.

I made this fun box card-of course with Easter Eggs and a Carrot!  This is a basic box card, so easy to make. I made this exactly as designed except I used chalk on the cheeks. 

Look for three other styles in this crate design.

Easter Bunny Box Card

Happy Monday! I'm here to share this cute project with you.

Such a fun little bunny box card to make...and I love the carrot passengers!

Back in the days of stamping expo's, my thing to collect was carrots-don't ask me why, who knows??? I still love anything to do with carrots. What did you collect when you first started stamping?

This is such a super cute creation, I can't wait to pop it in the mail!

Easter Carrot card

A2 EASEL CARD EASTER CARROTS

You know how I love carrots and images with carrots. When I first started stamping, carrot stamps were my thing! My friend collected butterflies and I collected carrots...Go Figure!!!

I made this quick little easel carrot card last night...the file has been calling my name all year and I finally got to it for this Easter!

Thanks for popping in today!

Granny Linda makes some Easter cards

A bit of Silhouette fun!  I had my BFF Linda from Alaska visit several weeks ago for a few days. I waited until these projects were received before posting. I'm trying to encourage her to dig out her Silhouette machine (or maybe even update to a new one??). She made these fun cut files for her grandbabies. I helped her with my machine-needed to reintroduce the crafting bug in her!  Links below.

Baseball Box Card by Lori Whitlock

She chose colors that matched her grandsons new baseball team colors and added his jersey number. She added the baseball and mitt on the side panels. The mitt was a different file of which we resized for the box card panels and also made into a much larger baseball mitt Easter basket to go with this card. The sky panel on the back was stenciled.

Spring Tri-fold card-Studio Ilustrado

Spring Has Sprung-Silhouette sentiment

She didn't worry about anything too fancy for her tiny granddaughter, just wanted something she might think was pretty and also would love giving the birdie kisses. We made a white panel for the back so Granny could write a message. We both decided this might last about 10 minutes in her little hands. You know how babies are!!!

 Easter Bunny Box by Lori Whitlock

A sweet little Easter box for her Granddaughter. I love this bunny file.

My friend and I had a fun day of crafting and I had fun reintroducing the Silhouette software to her.

Rambling Rose 359J Vintage PB Stamp

I used this cute little vintage Penny Black stamp for the Easter challenge theme. I've had this stamp forever and this is the first time she's been inked up. Yes, I'm a crazy stamp hoarder. 

I used my new matting cutting dies from Penny Black with some bright and cheerful colored paper. I also used my Lawn Fawn cloud stencil and a sweet little Art Impressions sentiment from the Easter Bunnies Set

3D Flower Gnome Box Card

  Spring Chick 3107H-discontinued.(smaller version is in Garden Friends)

I have quite a few of the 'older'  Penny Black transparent critter sets. They are perfect for creating fun little scenes. My favorites are the hedgies, mice, bunnies, and chicks.  For this card I made the card base with a Silhouette  cut file.  After cutting out the  gnome from the Silhouette file, I glued in the cute little critters.
