All things adorable.....

I've been working on some more Easter cards... another Mimi and one with some fabulous patterned paper I found in a magazine last Easter.   Both are so cute and adorable I have entered them into Wee Memories "all things adorable" challenge here

First off is the Mimi card... Mimi in her cute bunny suit.  The card was inspired by this one by Joy.
CAS Easter card~ inspired by Joy T

I CASE'd Joy's design as it is such a beautiful CAS.  I paper pieced Mimi and cut her out and then popped her onto the base card which I had used my computer to generate the sentiment ( Note to self: need Easter greetings stamps)  Added some PP and some hearts and pearls and a bit of glitter to her tail. 

This next one was a really quick card I made for Die Cut Diva's challenge ( here) Paula set a recipe.... ribbon, ink, die cut or embossing and 2 embellishments.   There are no stamps on this one...

so where's the ink you might ask!!!!  Well I distressed the edges of the card with some Spun Sugar distress ink.   The edging of the centre panel is cut with an Ezcut paper die ( made by Sullivans)   The paper is from a magazine from last Easter. Ribbon was given to me from a lady at work who cut all the bits of her clothes! and the two gems are my embellishment.  I cut out one of the bunny's and popped it up and then used some glossy accents on it's ears and the flowers.

I've been working on a card for my Mum for Mother's Day.  I'll share once she gets it in a week or two.    Wishing you all a good week and a great Easter.... God's blessing to those of you who celebrate  Easter and to those who don't, enjoy spending time with your families.
