Good Sunday morning all! With Easter fast approaching, I thought I had better get some Easter cards up on the blog (no doubt some will end up after the fact though!). I started by cutting the
Diamond Squares Background into a piece of coconut white card and extending it to create a rectangle shape rather than a square. I backed it with a piece of
teal card. Next I used the
Double Stitched Rectangles and made a white, multi-layered frame and added it over the background with mounting foam. For the focal element, I used the
Happy Easter Egg die and cut the egg in teal as a background and cut the sentiment in white. I glued it on then decided to glitter it so I used spray adhesive all over the top then added
Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz to it. I cut the scalloped edge for the teal egg in white and added it with the egg to the background with foam. I used the bow from the
Easter Bunny Egg die set cut in blush and added it to the top of the egg with a pearl. I cut the centre from the
Easter Bunny Egg, then trimmed the bunny out of the scene, inked through the die with
Spun Sugar to add some detail to the bunny and mounted it with foam at the edge of the frame with it's paw touching the decorative egg. White and blush mats and layers were used to complete the card. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 7 3/4" in size.
The winners in this week's Comment Game are:
dragonswing!!!
Lyn R in Warrington!!!
Sandra Smith!!!

Hiya Sue. Such a cute and beautiful Easter sample. The new folder is perfect, I don't know how to explain it but it's useful for any card yet can blend into the background as not to swamp delicate dies etc it's one of those perfect folders for any occasion and for any gender I just love it.
Many congratulations to our 3 comment winners enjoy your gift.
Sending love and hugs this Sunday xxx

Great card today which has triggred a memory of those cardboard egg shaped boxes that when opened were full of mini eggs, they were always trimmed with lace.

As one who didn't realise it was Easter next weekend I have to say Easter cards are not my thing. However this is a pretty card.
I do like this new background die ..... another on the shopping list if and when my house sale goes through and I can start spending again.

Rolf xxx
Very pretty
So pretty. Thanks for the tip to trim the bunny away...note to self.
I purchased both Easter fillable die sets and they are amazing. I also bought some of the egg shaped shaker cups and made a really pretty card with them....instead of putting confetti in the shaker, I put 3D flowers and foliage in the shaker cup. Wish you could see it.
Thanks so much for sharing your talent.

Cute Easter card. The Diamond Squares Background die is gorgeous. I don't make Easter cards as I have lots of birthday cards to make in March and April.
My Crux Gemini die arrived on Saturday. It's beautiful. I made a quick birthday card for a Sunday birthday and was so pleased with the result. The die really did do all the work.
Congratulations to dragonswing, Lyn R in Warrington and Sandra Smith on your comment game win. Enjoy your prizes. Congratulations to Netty The Runner on winning Wednesday's card giveaway.
Take care everyone.
Hi Sue,
Adorable card today. The little bunny is just as cute outside of the card as in the egg itself. I bought both of your Easter dies and have had a wonderful time creating Easter cards. I just know that a few of my friends and neighbors are going to love them.
Congratulations to the comment winners this week.
Have a wonderful day.
