This week is flying by , Good Friday Tomorrow and then an Easter weekend. We will be spending some time gardening and sometime with family . It's my Mums Birthday on Monday so they are coming to us for dinner then instead of Easter Sunday.
I've made lots of Easter cards and sold most of them , the one in this post is for family, I gave a cute rabbit one to the old lady I clean for , she loved it and gave me a kiss and hug, it's nice to make others happy with a card .
My Easter card features an image from a Joanna Sheen cd rom called the "card makers year " , a lot of the images are Victorian (quite an old cd but defo a goodie ). My hubby thinks the chicks pulling the image is rather creepy and strange , my Son and I think it's really cute , how about you ?
I've used a Marianne design dies , ivy corners and a threaded ribbon border . The detail picked out with liquid pearls.
The sentiment is computer generated , the font is Miss smarty pants . I cut it out with spellbinder nesties.

The second card , with the oriental look , features a bird on a branch and swirl embellishments cut on my silhouette cameo . The gems where from hobby craft 'half price' in the sale . The paper is diecuts with a veiw (really old stash ). The heart was die cut then embossed with a crafter's companion die and the bird was embossed with swiss dots folder.

Gorgeous cards Jane - both so very different in style. Nothing creepy about the chicks as far as I'm concerned - I think it's gorgeous image.
Have a great Easter.(I'll be dancing a lot of it - no surprise there!)

Wow! Amazing cards! Thanks for joining us at Cards In Envy!
Sorry for my late visit, I've been busy traveling and doing spring cleaning in between some card making and blogging. But I had to head over to tell you I find the chick image absolutely gorgeous, love the vintage feel of it and the decorative corner die cuts. Such a great choice of DP too!
