Pretty Daffodil Easter Card

Hello My Crafty Blog Friends and Visitors

How are you doing? I hope everything is well with you. Life is going on much the same for us as it has for the last few weeks. I am so grateful that we have a garden to enjoy, that my hubby has work and that I have a hobby. We are eating well. I have done so much cooking and I am really rather enjoying it. Also I am appreciating the technolgy that keeps us in touch with our loved ones. There are so many people out there doing so much to help us all.

I have been finding it difficult to craft. When I wrote my Easter cards I found that I was two short. So yesterday I settled down and made two Easter cards with the same design. It did help having something to focus on.


I used papers that were left over from our Daughter and Son-in-law's wedding which was three years ago in July. I did over buy everything I needed it would have been so bad to run out of anything


All the dies I used are from Creative Expressions. It was so nice to use the daffodil dies again. The oval dies come from the middle of another die set. I have found them to be so useful. I hunted through the Creative Expressions box of dies until I found a bow die. 


I think this is the only die that I have that makes an Easter Greeting. 


I made two cards with the same design. All the cards that are left can be hand delivered. The plan is to work their delivery into our daily walks. 

I can't believe that it is Easter at the weekend. 

I would like to enter the following challenges: 

Stay safe and well

Happy Crafting

Beautiful Jackie, I am sure the cards you send out will be very well recieved.
Life isn't that different for me either to be honest, I don't get out much at all, but I miss the constant stream of family, just popping in, they wave from the window and we speak on messenger but the hugs, oh I miss the hugs...take care.xx

Hello Jackie I feel just like you re the crafting The most I get around to is sitting (I should say slobbing) in front of the tele with a bit of knitting or crochet
I have just been admiring your colouring in Your angel’s hair is beautifully shaded I can’t colour fullstop! Even “flat” colouring I manage to go over the line!
I will take a look at Barbara’s pages in YouTube
I’m pleased you’ve managed to get a little extra help for your mum and dad
Take care x
