Foiled Easter Cards

Well, I hope everyone had a blessed Easter.  This year it came so early it was a rush to get everything done.  Since I had my foiling machine set up I decided to make some more cards with the poly-glaze sheets I had purchased from Gina K.  They had little bunnies and eggs on them which I thought were so cute!  I concentrated on using two foil colors - purple and gold.  

These were made with the purple foil layered on a piece of SU's Gorgeous Grape CS.  The dark purple card was made with the negative piece of foil.  Absolutely no waste which I love.

I decided to use an old bunny die I had and mount it on a wobble to make it wiggle and some twine to dress them up. 

The sentiment is from SU's Easter Bunny stamp set. An oldie but goodie! The next three cards are made with the gold foil.

It was hard to take a picture of the negative gold card but I loved how it turned out layered on a piece of SU's Gold Brushed CS.

I used the same sentiment stamp but in gold ink and the bunny was in the gold CS as well.

I was so pleased with my first attempt with foiling.  I will definitely have to watch some more videos and see what other techniques I can do with the foiling.  The family was here for the day and we enjoyed watching Jennifer and Juan looking for eggs.  I'm sure everyone read about the earthquake we had yesterday.  We were in the kitchen eating breakfast and the house started to shake.  Everything was rattling but fortunately nothing broke.  It took us a minute to realize what was happening as we don't get many earthquakes here.  I started to call the family to check on them as Jennifer's house is only a few miles from the epic center.  They were shook up but all was well.  Margaret was at the hospital where she works on the 5th floor and the building started swaying a bit.  Checked with Rachel and Sarah and they felt it too but were OK.  We had a few after shocks later in the day but nothing like in the morning.  This tremor was definitely not like what's happening in Taiwan.  We were lucky.
