Easter Sunday

Hello, and Happy Easter to all of you out there celebrating with the Easter Bunny.  I have two cards to post today.  The first is another flip top card, using a stamp set from papermania and is very appropriate as I had a hot cross bun for my breakfast this morning!

Instead of using pens or water colours to colour in my Easter characters I have dabbed a sponge lightly onto the ink pad and then stippled this on to the card after stamping, just to give a hint of colour.  I think they have turned out rather well and is a happy alternative to colouring in.

The second card I have made also uses the the Easter characters but this time I have decoupaged them and placed them as though they were looking over a wall.  I am not sure that the ears, chick and egg have come out very well in the photo but I have coloured them in using fluffy paint. and sponged in the same way as the first card.  The edge punch is from Martha Stewart.
Have a wonderful Easter week end and I will be back again soon.  Elizabeth X x
