Banana Spilt Sunday & Caardvarks Challenges

This week's Banana Spilt Challenge is to do something Spring related and the Caardvark Challenge is to include a critter in your project. SO, I made an Easter card to use in both challenges.
My Easter card is using the new Daisy Chain, Checking Out papers and Grow Accessory Sheet by My Mind's Eye. The bunny image is from the 2 Red Bananas Caring Critters Stamp Set and the sentiment is from the 2 Red Bananas Bunnies and Eggs Stamp Set. They were both stamped with Tsukineko Coffee Bean ink. The cool burlap woven ribbon is from May Arts. I ran a piece of green ric rac through it and adhered it with Glue Lines. The flowers are from Prima with a BasicGrey brad in the center.

Be sure to check out the 2 Red Bananas blog to see other Spring inspired creations and to join the fun! If you upload your images to PCP or SCS, use 2RBBSS02 as your keyword! This week there will be a prize for one random participant.

The Caardvarks Challenge will remain open until March 18th and they are offering a prize to one lucky winner as well.

Sneak Peek Day 5 Featuring Caring Critters Stamp Set

Welcome to the 5th day of the 2 Red Bananas March stamp set Sneak Peeks!

Today we are showing off Caring Critters. This set has not only the bird and butterflies I used but also a cute bunny along with several quotes. To participate in this week's BasicGrey Challenge 23, I used the color scheme of pink and green using some BasicGrey papers. For the images and quote I stamped them in VersaMark and heat embossed them in black. The bird on the branch was colored with Prismacolor pencils and mineral spirits and the butterflies have been painted with pink Shimmerz. This set along with all other EIGHT new sets will be available on the 2 Red Bananas site Monday, March 2nd.
