Easter Cards

It's been a few weeks since we've shown anything on here due to Cheryl and I's schedules lately. So here's a few Easter cards to inspire your creativity today.

Here'a cutesy Easter card.
Notice the Tree Lawn Fawn die that was cut out of wood paper, before we had always used a solid piece which gives it a little different look. You can look back at the post from November 9th to see how it was used there. 


The inside of the card:


This fabric was used as the background:


These are the rabbits that were used on the card:

These are the larger bunnies used inside the card:


These bunnies were used on the outside of the card:

February Club Cards

Good afternoon!

Yesterday was club at the store. Cindy Kady was the hostess this month and the Valentine's card she created is below:


Rachel did this 5 x 7 card using the new Wedding Ring quilt die from Purple Daisy Designs. Rachel's been making GORGEOUS cards with the wide selection of quilt dies we have available! 


This card was not made for club but is a smaller version of the above card. It's also made using the Wedding Ring quilt die and "Pretty as a Pansy" fabrics. As you can see, the Wedding Ring die fits perfectly over the front of an A2 card without going over the edges! 


The Wedding Ring quilt die looks like this:


And here are the 5 coordinating bolts in the "Pretty as a Pansy" line:






Just for your info, we now have printed directions for the phone wallet we pictured here back in December. 

Enjoy your day!
