Happy Bitten by the Bug 2 Monday blog hoppers. This week's challenge cut at BBTB2 is the Rabbit from Winter Woodlands. I had not used this rabbit cut before and I must say she is just adorable! I love the layered pieces and the potential for this cute little bunny. I used cat’s eye chalk to add depth to the edge of the top layer leg and head pieces.

I know that I have jumped the season a bit, but I combined the rabbit cut with the new Easter 2010. I used the Easter basket and eggs from the Easter cartridge, as well as the scalloped circle cut. I used my Copic markers to color the edge of the scalloped circle and to color the flowers and leaf cut out areas on the eggs and basket. I added pearl embellishments, including the black pearl for the Rabbit's eye. I used my usual black and white pens to add dotted embellies.

Do I even need to tell you that the Happy Easter cut came from the Easter cartridge???  Probably not.  I used the same chocolate brown paper for the word shadow as I used for the Rabbit, basket and bow shadows. And again I used a Copic marker on the top layer of cardstock to to match the color on the scallops.
 

 
I love the close up of the rabbit in the basket; she looks so sweet and so happy. 
 

The inside of the card is stamped with a curved Happy Easter stamp.  I have a confession:  I dropped the stamp as I was completing the stamp.  You will note the little smudge on the word Happy.  And finally, below is one last look at the card front.

Note:  The cut file has been added to the list of available cut files in the left column - WW & Easter Rabbit Card.

I know sunny and foggy isn't your normal combination and up and until yesterday I had no idea that the two could exist together either. It was certainly very strange, as one minute I had a perfect sunny conditions and the next the sun was still shining, but through a thick layer of fog. A bit odd or I thought so anyway. The fog hung around for the rest of the day and the night reminding me of the foggy conditions we had at around this latitude heading south in the Pacific.

We've also had really gentle sailing conditions, I can hardly believe how little swell there is and flat it is, which makes life nice and comfortable. We haven't been making the most amazing speeds with the light winds, but Ella's Pink Lady has been able to keep up a steady pace to the east. All this warm sunshine and easy sailing reminds me of the tropics and feels like holiday!

It's amazing that after only a few days of quiet conditions so many of my habits have changed. Mostly little things like leaving things out on the bench and sleeping out in the cockpit , its actually quite a thrill to be able to sit a cup down for a moment without it flying across the room. I have to keep reminding myself to keep everything tidy and shipshape, as I know that this will only last so long.

Only 2000nm to the Cape of Good Hope. That's going to be it from me today as I'm keen to get back outside into the sunshine!

Link is on my side bar.

Oberstdorf, Ski Flying Team competition.

Austria won, well-deserved.

No France today.

Though there was some nice tiny little, short glimpse.

Thank you Eurosport.

You made me smile!

Hahaha.

If France would had jumped, they would have shown the rest...

Whateva

I have fever. High fever.

This explains a lot.

And now a bit more serious. One month Eurosport online is wonderful. Believe me. I can watch everything. All their channels, news, competitions. This is almost heaven.

Though....I still feel bad. Running nose and so on.

Loty Narciarskie w Oberstdorfie, zawody drużynowe.

Wygrała zasłużenie Austria.

Dzisiaj bez Francji.

Chociaż był dziś mały, maluteńki, króciutki momencik.

Dziękuję Eurosport!

Uśmiech pojawił się na mojej twarzy.

Haha

Gdyby dziś Francuzi skakali to by pokazali reszcie...

Nieważne.

Mam gorączkę, wysoką.

To wiele tłumaczy.

A teraz trochę poważniej. Miesiąc internetowego Eurosportu to błogosławieństwo. Wierzcie mi. Mogę oglądać wszelakie kanały, programy, wiadomości. Prawie jak w raju.

Tymczasem wciąż czuję się kiepsko. Nos i te sprawy.

................Ce que femme veut, Dieu le veut.

I was so happy to see UPS arrive at my door today bearing my Custom Crops order. In addition to some really pretty Valentine Paper I also received the Mother's Day cartridge. Initially I was not very excited about this cartridge, but upon closer inspection I discovered that it contains some really pretty cuts. And I discovered that it does not have to be all about mom.

As I looked at the pretty cuts, I noticed this really pretty floral vine. When I placed the cut on the mat in Design Studio I realized that when I turned the vine upside down it resembled a floral heart. Given that Valentine's Day is just around the corner, I decided to make a card.

I used five colors of Core'dination cardstock to create this card: Jenni Bowlin Core Impressions embossed black, white washed red, white washed pink, plain white, and gold. I cut the shadow of the vine in plain white. I cut the vine cut twice, once in white washed red, once in white washed pink. I used scissors to trim away the flowers on the pink cut. I then attached the pink cut over the red cut. I used a 1/4 inch hole punch to create the gold flower centers. Finally I cut the tag, using the hide select contour feature, in black.

We made it to Friday! YAY! :) And that means it's time for a new Wags 'n Whiskers challenge. This weeks challenge is from the fabulous Inge, and it's to use the colors brown, blue, and white on your project. I love this color combo, and chose to use the stamp Bear Hug. I used several different shades of brown, including that beautiful taupe silk ribbon. It comes across a little pinkish in the photo. She's colored with Copic markers, and I honestly have to say that I love this stamp so much!! This card is for someone that is really having a tough time right now, and I'm truly hoping it will make her feel a little better.

The flowers were cut with my Cricut and Gypsy from the Paisley cart with some chalk ink around the edges. I just cut circles out for the centers and topped them off with a bow made from twine from PTI. That fabulous teddy bear charm hanging from the bow is from Lacey over at Stamp and Create! Isn't it adorable??!! The hearts were cut with Nestabilities and then popped up for a little dimension. DP is Webster's pages and cardstock is Bazzill. Please do yourself a huge favor and visit Wags 'n Whiskers. The Divas have really created some amazing eye candy for you this week (they do every week!). These ladies are seriously talented!!! And then we'd love it if you'd play along with us! If you use your Wags 'n Whiskers stamp, you'll be entered for a chance to win a WnW stamp of your choice! Thanks so much for visiting me today, and hope to see you back again soon!! Big hugs!!

I have been so intrigued by the glass etch projects made with vinyl and Armour Etch which I have viewed at various blogs that I decided to have a go at etching.  After Christmas I purchased 9 inch tall hand blown candle sticks on close-out sale.  I thought they would be perfect for etching as there is a 1 inch rim at the top edge.  I also thought the close out price was a plus as this was a new craft for me.

I used Design Studio and Storybook to cut a design in scrap cricut vinyl I had in a drawer.  I used the negative part of the cut and applied the vinyl pieces to the glass.  I then filled in the vine-flower design with Armour Etch. 

I did not realize that the Armour Etch cream would drip, but it did.  Right down onto the bulb area in the center of the candle stick.  I tried a couple of fixes but found all attempts to deal with the drips lacking.  So finally I realized that I could etch the whole bulb area.  I am actually quite pleased with this effect.

I purchased candles at Hobby Lobby and now I am all set with cute Valentine gifts for my daughter and my son's girlfriend.

The temperature is hardly cold anymore and Ella's Pink Lady and I am now far enough north to avoid the worst of the nasty weather systems to the south (not that we couldn't still cop a storm anywhere). So it's time to start making some serious ground to the east. Go too much further north and we would risk losing the prevailing westerly winds that mean easy sailing and good progress.

With only 2300nm till we pass under The Cape of Good Hope and Africa we're getting pretty close to being half way across the Atlantic already. Time flies when you're having fun!

There's really not too much new and exciting to report from out here, just that all's well. I'm still loving every moment, enjoying all the little things. I've still been finishing up a few jobs from after the storm and yesterday I made the most of some sunshine to catch up of some washing - the rigging and lifelines make a great washing line!

With everyone back home back to school (sorry guys!) it's probably time that I have a go at finding where I stowed my school work too.

It looks like I'll be in this calm patch for a while longer so we should have quiet sailing and hopefully good progress for a while longer.

Happy Friday Eve everyone!! YAY!! Isn't it so sad that I just live for the weekends? LOL! Well....that and vacations! (smile) It's time for a new challenge from Kerry over at Three Clovers Designs. The challenge is to use at least two images on your project, and words don't count!! I used these adorable new High Hopes stamps that I got from Lacey over at Stamp and Create! Have you heard that Dustin Pike is their newest artist? How exciting is that?! I fell in love with these aliens and had to have them. So I used the two different aliens, Chuck and Quentin, and the cute space post sign, and they're colored with Copic markers. The sentiment was printed off from my computer onto the sign. Chuck photographed really red, but he's actually orange in person. The grass was just drawn in with my Copic multi-liner.

The stars, scalloped frame, and photo corners were all cut out with the Cricut using my Gypsy that I got from Hallmark Scrapbook. That's it for today! Please be sure and pop over to Three Clovers Thursdays to see the rest of the fabulous projects from the DT. And then we'd love it if you'd play along with us! Thanks for stopping by to see me today, and hope to see you back again soon! Hugs!

I also entered this in High Hopes challenge this week for a project using three High Hopes Stamps! Wish me luck! Hugs!

recipe:

images: High Hopes from Stamp and Create

papers - DP unknown from scrap pile; cardstock is Bazzill

Tools: Cricut Expression with Storybook, Plantin Schoolbook, and Jasmine carts

misc: computer generated sentiment, dimensional tajpe

My exam in American Studies was the SHIT! It was simply awful. I got up with fever and felt pretty shitty this morning. Some of my teachers think that I am constantly ill and have some hardcore immunodeficiancy. Anyways. As expected, we were given quotations. And I freaked out. It was my favourite course this term, and I really wanted to pass this as good as it gets. And now I am sending prayers for a pass.

And I can't sleep. It's probably part whateva of my freaking insomnia. And I feel bad. And it's snowing. Holy crap. It is SO snowing here.

What the hell is going on with me?

Pierwszy egzamin z Amerykanistyki był do dupy. Po prostu koszmar. Obudziłam się dnia wczorajszego z gorączką i z generalnie niezbyt dobrym samopoczuciem. Paru moich wykładowców już się zastanawia nad moimi ciągłymi chorobami i sugerują, że mam jakąś słabą odporność. Cóż, tak jak się spodziewałam, dali nam cytaty. A ja w tym momencie wpadłam w szał ( mogę się zawsze tłumaczyć niepoczytalnością z powodu gorączki). To były moje ulubione zajęcia w tym semestrze, i naprawdę chciałam zdać ten egzamin jak tylko najlepiej. A teraz wysyłam modły ku niebu, by tylko zdać.

I znowu nie mogę spać. Pewnie to już nie wiadomo jaka część mojej cholernej bezsenności. I się czuję źle. I pada śnieg. I to jak!

Co się ze mną dzieje do cholery?

kolejny problem. A nawet dwa miliony. Człowiek, któremu powiedziałam 3 razy ( raz miło, drugi raz normalnie trzeci raz stanowczo) NIET,że nici z tego, znowu do mnie wypisuje. I znowu się przyczepił ( że tak się wyrażę), i znowu tu przyjeżdża i znowu wypisuje i wypytuje. Po jakiemu ja mam do niego przemawiać? On nie rozumie, że ja nie mam nawet czasu pod koniec tygodnia by za przeproszeniem ( nie napiszę) ? I przyczepił się i drugi. Dobrze, że mieszka jeszcze dalej. Nic dziwnego, że mam nerwicę i nie mogę spać. Nic dziwnego....
