Easter is near...and so I have been making cards for everyone...


Hello everyone again, what a lovely day it's been...have had a productive day today, not creatively but domestically.

Here is a card I made for my niece Kristina for Easter, my dad was supposed to take it to Malta with him but forgot it at mine, so I am hoping I can take it down to the post office, along with her birthday card, as she will be 12 on the 21st of Apri




I love the Sweet Treat Cups and now that I have sussed how to use them I can't stop. I have a tutorial if anyone would like to know how I did this card, just email me and I'll email you a copy. I filled them with the 'teeny-weeny eggs' from the local supermarket and as soon as she'll eat them, she'll see this lovely chick smiling back at her!







Ingredients for this card:
Card: Wild Wasabi, So Saffron, Very Vanilla
Ink: Chocolate Chip, Daffodil Delight; Pumpkin Pie Writer mark
Stamp Set: Build a Blossom, A Good Egg, Fast and Fun Notes
Punch: Build a Blossom, 1-3/4 circle 

Hope you like this, I will be entering it into the Easter Simply Stampin' Challenge too. 
Thanks for visiting,

Easter is near...

Oh I love Spring and Easter, I love of the blossom and greenery and this week I think I'm going to overwhelme you with lots of Easter projects. The first is this lovely Easter Egg basket. On Thursday, I went round Caroline, my upline where we had a share and play session, we all took our stuff from that we had bought from the mini and just made and played lots! It was fab, before we knew, we realised we had been doing that for over 5 hours!! 

I used the Sizzix Scallop Envelope Die and the Big Shot, to cut out 4 envelopes. I used Bashful Blue card, the egg stamp from the Nature Walk, which Helen brought and the flowers on top of the handle are from A Good Egg Set. I ran the scallop envelopes through the polka dots embossing folder before sticking together, this is becoming my favourite embossing folder. I hope you like it, it is so easy...I must say that I pinched the idea of the pastel eggs from Caroline, I wasn't sure at first but I love it now! I have also entered this into the Simply Stampin' Challenge, as their theme for this week is Easter, which I love!


What do you think? 
See you tomorrow for another Easter themed project!
